9D WORKSHOP: Teaching migration and health: Approaches, challenges and collaboration [ Room: KW003 ]
Convenors: Gunda Waldmann, LMU Munich, Germany; Mirna al Masri, University of Bayreuth, Germany
Teaching migration and health is expanding globally, but educators often work in isolation despite shared conceptual and ethical challenges. This interdisciplinary field spans medicine, social sciences, and law. Designing pedagogically sound, empirically grounded courses that reflect migrant experiences is complex. This interactive workshop unites educators to exchange practices, priorities, and integration strategies. Participants will explore course structure, key themes (access, mental health, borders, inequalities), and community-engaged learning. The session fosters cross-disciplinary dialogue, generates teaching innovations, and builds collaboration toward inclusive, critically engaged pedagogy.
