Refugee Migration to the South-East Coast: Adolescent Mental Health Experiences, Provision for Refugee Minors, and Political Debates in the Domain of

东南海岸是寻求庇护者独特的城市周边安置点，因为附近的肯特和克罗伊登有处理中心，黑斯廷斯长期以来一直用作疏散中心，以及不断增长的难民社区。关于以下方面的研究很少：一)如何通过提供精神健康服务解决青年在关键过渡时期的精神健康经历；二)全球人口和政治变化如何了解精神疾病的病因；三)年轻难民的经历与精神健康政策和公共辩论的相关性。这项研究将在人口、区域和个人转型的历史进程中开发一种跨学科的方法来处理精神疾病和相关治疗(Khan 2017)。方法可以包括对临床和社区服务提供者和年轻人进行深入访谈和焦点小组，在用户环境中进行小规模的人种学洞察，以及在年轻人、照顾者和服务提供者之间的信息交流会议期间共同制作关键的桥梁工作。将与相关利益攸关方分享研究结果，为边缘化群体，特别是东南沿海受战争和移徙影响的青少年制定公共卫生政策提供信息(Zeeman等人，2017年)。

The South-East coast is a unique peri-urban settlement site for asylum seekers, due to processing centres in nearby Kent and Croydon, Hastings' longstanding use as a dispersal centre, and growing refugee communities. Few studies exist of i) how the mental health experiences of young people during critical times of transition are addressed by mental health service provision; ii) ways mental illness aetiologies are informed by demographic and political transformations globally, and in the South-East coast as a specific locality iii) the relevance of young refugees' experiences for mental health policy and public debate. This study will develop an interdisciplinary approach to mental illness and related treatment within historical processes of demographic, regional and individual transition (Khan 2017). Methods could include in-depth interviews and focus groups with clinical and community service providers and young people, small-scale ethnographic insights in user settings, and to coproduce critical bridgework during information exchange sessions between young people, carers, and service providers. Findings will be shared with relevant stakeholders to inform public health policy for marginalised groups (Zeeman et al 2017), specifically, adolescents affected by war and migration on the South-East coast.
