Forced migration, and resulting challenges relating to refugee health, are currently treated as highly exceptional, as a singularity. We postulate that this constitutes a socially as well as scientifically impoverished approach in two respects. Firstly, a singularity perspective may ultimately have adverse effects on the health of refugees because of the resulting ‘othering’ processes (e. g. exclusion, spatial separation) and further social marginalisation of forced migrants. Secondly, treating challenges related to refugee health as a singularity constitutes a missed opportunity for improving population health in general as it fails to realise an inherent analytical potential to identify broader deficiencies. In view of the diversity in Germany’s society today, refugee health can be interpreted as presenting an exacerbation and accumulation of factors that affect also other population subgroups, and ultimately – albeit to varying degrees – all members of society in Germany. In the PH-LENS Research Unit (RU), we will analyse two such factors, (i) contextual (small-area) effects on health; and (ii) challenges to the health system (which we analyse using the concept of health system resilience), as well as their interactions, from a truly interdisciplinary perspective. ‘Othering’ as an analytical perspective will serve as a key theoretical link between these factors. We aim to identify health inequalities related to these factors, determine the underlying pathways including societal exclusion processes, and formulate concepts and strategies for reducing them. By rejecting the singularity perspective, our results, both in terms of methodology and of scientific content, will be applicable more broadly to public health in Germany’s increasingly diverse society. This innovative concept clearly stands out from the work of many on-going refugee health projects.The sub-project COOREQ will coordinate the overall cooperation of all other sub-projects in PH-LENS (beyond activities such as working papers that individual sub-projects jointly produce). COOREQ will facilitate an iterative synthesis of research findings across sub-projects and disciplines through organising (i) data sharing within the RU; and (ii) a series of dedicated joint project meetings and workshops, including a conference with input from international experts. Moreover, COOREQ will ensure that equity measures are implemented and that young researchers are supported in the RU. COOREQ is thus crucial for ensuring that the added value of the PH-LENS RU – beyond the achievements of the individual sub-projects – will be realised.

目前，强迫移民以及与难民健康有关的挑战被视为高度例外。我们假设这在两个方面构成了社会和科学上的贫困方法。首先，由于由此产生的“其他”过程（例如，排除，空间分离）和强迫移民的进一步社会边缘化，奇异的观点最终可能会对难民的健康产生不利影响。其次，将与难民健康相关的挑战视为一种奇异性，这是一个错过的改善人口健康的机会，因为它未能实现继承的分析潜力来识别更广泛的缺陷。鉴于当今德国社会的多样性，难民健康可以解释为呈现出加剧和积累的因素，这些因素也影响了其他人口子群体，最终（尽管在不同程度上 - 德国的所有社会成员）。在pH镜头研究单元（RU）中，我们将分析两个这样的因素：（i）上下文（小区域）对健康的影响； （ii）从真正的跨学科的角度来看，对卫生系统的挑战（我们使用卫生系统弹性的概念进行分析）及其相互作用。作为分析观点的“其他”将成为这些因素之间的关键理论联系。我们旨在确定与这些因素相关的健康不平等，确定包括社会排斥过程在内的潜在途径，并制定减少它们的概念和策略。通过拒绝奇异性观点，我们的结果在方法论和科学内容方面都将更广泛地适用于德国日益多样化的社会的公共卫生。这种创新的概念显然是在许多正在进行的难民健康项目的工作中脱颖而出的。子项目COOREQ将协调pH镜头中所有其他子项目的整体合作（除了诸如共同生产的单个子项目的工作论文之外）。 COOREQ将通过组织（i）RU内的数据共享（i）数据共享跨越项目和学科的研究结果的迭代综合； （ii）一系列专门的联合项目会议和研讨会，包括与国际专家的意见的会议。此外，COOREQ将确保实施股权措施，并在RU中支持年轻的研究人员。因此，COOREQ对于确保pH-Lens Ru的附加值（超出单个子项目的成就）至关重要。
