ABSTRACT
Uganda’s refugee policy framework seeks to cover health care needs of refugees within a dynamic social context. Focusing on the ecosystem of urban refugees, we examine refugee health care expectations, support networks, and how health communication traditions and perspectives influence experiences of service delivery. Health communication is important to refugee health decisions and practices and should be tailored regarding refugee child health. A vulnerability assessment of urban refugees was conducted by Makerere University in February/March 2020 in Kampala and funded by a European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme (# 825671), A Global Social Sciences Network for Infectious Threats and Anti-Microbial Resistance (Sonar-Global).
