Abstract

The world in which we now live is a global community where people of many origins and their respective cultures cross paths on a daily basis. We are a mobile society in many respects, including geographically, as people are no longer bound to their native lands and now migrate further from home, with more ease, than ever before. Though health concerns have always accompanied migrants, attitudes have shifted as research has uncovered both the positive and negative impacts of migration on the health and well-being of migrants (Hull, 1979).
