IMISCOE develops a Europe-wide survey on the state of health research and health care in Europe for migrants involving a group of researchers working in the field of Migration and Health from a Network of Excellence that comprises 20 institutions throughout Europe. It will present an accessible overview of existing knowledge about migrants’ state of health, the factors influencing this, the quality and accessibility of health care provisions for these groups, and the efforts being made to tackle problems in this area. As such it will shed light on theoretical issues and suggest priorities for research and policy agendas
