Women marginalised by mental health, disability or refugee status

受精神疾病、残疾或难民地位影响的妇女是社会上最脆弱和被剥夺权利的群体。这些妇女可能遭受严重的社会排斥、边缘化和耻辱，与此相关的是寻求帮助的机会减少，尊严和人权被剥夺，健康、福祉和生活质量受到威胁。然而，许多妇女表现出与积极的健康成果相关的复原力和能动性。这项研究将确定妇女如何谈判耻辱和潜在的边缘化，为卫生政策提供信息，并针对弱势妇女采取干预措施，对妇女的耻辱体现产生急需的洞察力，以及用于科普，谈判和抵制其耻辱身份的战略。

Women impacted by mental illness, disability or refugee status are among society’s most vulnerable and disenfranchised groups. Such women can experience significant social exclusion, marginalisation and stigma, associated with reduced help seeking, deprivation of dignity and human rights, and threats to health, well-being and quality of life. However, many women demonstrate resilience and agency, associated with positive health outcomes. This research will identify how women negotiate stigma and potential marginalisation, to inform health policy, and target interventions for vulnerable women, generating much-needed insight on women’s embodiment of stigma, and strategies used to cope with, negotiate and resist their stigmatised identities.
