Abstract

Health literacy (HL) is a complex field encompassing a range of public health education and communication activities that are crucial for interacting with the health care system. In a sustainable world, future healthcare must be accessible to all, and we must ensure that people from migrant backgrounds have got the resources to manage their health. Inequalities in immigrants’ health profiles, a sign of ineffective integration policies, could be mitigated by improving HL levels. The aim of the study was to investigate the space given to HL within formal immigrant learning contexts; the study featured a questionnaire that was intended as a probe into some specific needs and discomforts connected with the condition of translingualism and with the related trauma, which may have a negative impact on language learning. Such interweaving offers a different perspective that generates new teaching practices and the creation of a Language Desk that through language, health literacy and narrative medicine promotes equitable, safe and sustainable learning contexts that enhance the experience of translingualism in all its forms.
健康扫盲、移民创伤、叙事医学和语言服务台。跨语言和教育过程中的新做法
健康素养(HL)是一个复杂的领域,包括一系列公共卫生教育和交流活动,对于与医疗保健系统的互动至关重要。在一个可持续发展的世界里,未来的医疗保健必须面向所有人,我们必须确保有移民背景的人拥有管理自身健康的资源。移民健康状况的不平等是融合政策无效的表现,可以通过提高 HL 水平来缓解。这项研究的目的是调查在正规的移民学习环境中给予人文科学的空间;研究的特色是通过问卷调查,了解与跨语言状况和相关创伤有关的一些特定需求和不适,这些需求和不适可能会对语言学习产生负面影响。这种交织提供了一个不同的视角,产生了新的教学实践,并创建了一个语言服务台,通过语言、健康扫盲和叙事医学促进公平、安全和可持续的学习环境,增强各种形式的跨语言体验。
