移民是一种普遍存在的现象，伴随着人类在地球上的生存而存在。人们从一个地方迁移到另一个地方有几个原因，但改变居住地背后的目标或主要原因是改善他们的生活条件或摆脱债务和贫困。移民也是一种影响人类生活和周围环境的社会现象。因此，移徙对任何地理区域都有很大的影响，它被称为任何特定区域人口增长的三个基本组成部分之一（另外两个是死亡率和生育率）。迁移需要经历某些阶段；因此，它是一个过程。很多时候，缺乏准备、难以适应新环境、当地制度的复杂性、语言困难、文化差异和不利的经历都会给移徙者带来痛苦。此外，它随后对这些人口的心理健康产生负面影响。由于全球化、现代化、技术改进和所有部门的发展，移徙及其对人类福祉的影响是一个当代问题；因此，本文试图在各地开展研究的基础上，了解移民及其对移民心理健康的影响。
Migration is a universal phenomenon, which existed with the subsistence of the human beings on earth. People migrate from one place to another for several reasons, but the goal or main reason behind changing the residence would be improving their living conditions or to escape from debts and poverty. Migration is also a social phenomenon which influences human life and the environment around. Hence, migration has a great impact on any geographical area and it is known as one of the three basic components of population growth of any particular region (the other two are, mortality and fertility). Migration involves certain phases to go through; hence, it is a process. Many times, lack of preparedness, difficulties in adjusting to the new environment, the complexity of the local system, language difficulties, cultural disparities and adverse experiences would cause distress to the migrants. Moreover subsequently it has a negative impact on mental well-being of such population. Due to globalization, modernization, improved technologies and developments in all the sectors, the migration and its impact on human well-being is a contemporary issue; hence, here is an attempt to understand the migration and its impact on the mental health of the migrants based on the studies conducted around.
