The method used in this research is quantitative research using survey methods. Data analysis techniques in this study use path analysis techniques (path analysis). The population in this study was 414 teachers spread across 134 institutions in 40 districts of Bogor Regency. The results showed a significant relationship between Empowerment, self-efficacy, motivation, and creativity of kindergarten teachers in the Bogor Regency area. This research implies that to increase teachers' creativity in Kindergartens accredited B in Bogor Regency, it is necessary to strengthen Empowerment, self-efficacy, and motivation. Empowerment can be done through giving authority, building self-confidence, authority in decision-making, sharing knowledge, and increasing a sense of contribution. Self-efficacy can be increased by increasing self-confidence, motivation to complete tasks, commitment, high performance, and resilience in facing problems. Motivation can be increased through internal and external factors that affect the drive to work effectively.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79733229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the objectives of this study are to describe the health conditions, access to health-care facilities, COVID-19 protection and health challenges in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic reported by women survivors of human trafficking in Spain.\u0000\u0000\u0000Design/methodology/approach\u0000Due to the pandemic situation, limited research and the complexity of the issue, the authors took a qualitative approach. A cross-sectional study was carried out through interviews with women survivors of human trafficking for sexual exploitation in Spain. Prior to the interviews, the researchers conducted written interviews with social workers to understand the most important challenges that the women survivors were experiencing during confinement. As a result of these written interviews, the interview script for the survivors was modified.\u0000\u0000\u0000Findings\u0000To sum up, the COVID-19 situation poses several challenges, including social difficulties (food insecurity; violence; terrible housing conditions; working pressure; poor sleeping habits; and cultural, linguistic and religious challenges), medical insecurity (due to lockdowns, negative experiences in care, lack of official documents, collapse of hospitals, telephone monitoring and fear of contagion), great emotional distress reported by women (anxiety, fear, sadness, post-traumatic stress disorder, stigma and substance use) and physical health problems (serious weight loss, muscle pains, dental problems and sexual and reproductive health-care limitations).\u0000\u0000\u0000Research limitations/implications\u0000As is usual in qualitative research, rather than obtain generalizable results, the main objective was to delve deeper into under-researched or complex issues (Polit and Beck, 2010). While this report provides a timely overview marked by COVID-19 of an important population, there are some limitations. The major limitation of this research was the sample representativity, because the sample was conducted with only one non-governmental organization and only individuals who voluntarily agreed to make the interview; as such, other victim profiles may not be represented.\u0000\u0000\u0000Practical implications\u0000The findings can provide information for detecting victims of human trafficking for sexual exploitation and contribute to understanding the pandemic’s impact. Furthermore, the paper emphasizes the need to adopt measures for the recovery of victims, such as medical and psychological assistance, in accordance with the Palermo Protocol. As people transition out of the pandemic, it is crucial for Spain, along with other European countries, to guarantee that all residents, particularly the victims of human trafficking, have access to social and health-care protections during times of crisis.\u0000\u0000\u0000Social implications\u0000As already mentioned, further investigation should be done to fill the gaps on health of human trafficki","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47288576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
