The international media outlet SciDev.Net, specializing in science and technology for sustainable development, published a note highlighting a study led by CISS researcher Teresita Rocha-Jiménez on mental health in migrants, with a special focus on women in vulnerable situations on the borders of Chile and Ecuador.

The article emphasizes how racism, xenophobia, aporophobia, and legal status influence access to health services, especially mental health, a dimension often ignored or rendered invisible during migration processes.

The coverage also highlights the need for public policies with a focus on rights, gender, and interculturality that respond to the structural conditions faced by migrants on the move.
