Cultural biographies, medical knowledges: A sociological study

文化传记，医学知识：社会学研究。该项目旨在推动癌症护理部门向以人为本的护理方向发展，而不是简单地“适应文化多样性”。在澳大利亚，癌症不仅仅是主要的疾病负担；它是一个社会和文化实体，在社区内部和社区之间以各种各样的方式经历，微妙地反映了个人的历史和文化传记。该项目将使用口述生活史和视觉方法来了解移民的文化传记、他们的癌症经历以及他们所接受的护理之间的相互作用。预期的结果是改善对患有癌症的移民的护理，以人为本的护理，以及包容性的政策战略和实践指南。

Cultural biographies, medical knowledges: A sociological study. This project aims to push the cancer care sector toward person-centred care rather than simply ‘accommodating cultural diversity’. Cancer is much more than just the leading burden of disease in Australia; it is a social and cultural entity, experienced in hugely varied ways within and across communities, subtly reflecting individual histories and cultural biographies. This project will use oral life history and visual methods to understand the interplay of migrants' cultural biographies, their experiences of cancer, and the care they receive. Anticipated outcomes are improved care for migrants living with cancer, person-centred care, and inclusive policy strategies and guides for practice.
