世界银行和联合国开发计划署认为移民能促进经济发展,但公共卫生文献常将移民与传染病扩散联系起来,尤其是艾滋病。本文探讨如何将公共卫生视角纳入发展政策,以在获取移民发展收益的同时减少健康风险。

Abstract

Abstract The World Bank and UNDP have proposed that migration and mobility facilitate economic development. Yet the epidemiological and public health literature has often associated migration and population mobility with the extension and intensification of infectious diseases, most recently epitomised by the AIDS pandemic. Within the context of the well-documented negative developmental impact of AIDS, this suggests a potential clash in perspectives on the role of migration. However, if insights from public health can be incorporated into broader development perspectives, it may be possible to realise the developmental benefits of migration while mitigating or avoiding any associated health concerns.
