WHO CC Network

Migration and health is increasingly recognized as a global public health priority.

The WHO Migration and Health Programme, placed within the Division for Country Support and Emergency Preparedness and Response of the WHO Regional Office for Europe, is instrumental in promoting the health of refugees and migrants in all facets of public health and is committed in supporting Member States in doing so on the basis of data and evidence.

The WHO Collaborating Centres designated by the WHO, as well as other key partners and those academic institutions aspiring to this, are vital in the production of this research and in the implementation support required to put evidence into effective action.
