Introduction: Oral health is part of the broader context of health. Oral health inequalities directly affect groups that have endured and continue to face racism and injustice. Immigrant communities have higher rates of caries and tooth loss and lower rates of annual dental visits. Oral health interacts and affects multiple chronic health conditions. The purpose of this study is to initially conduct systematic research into the quality of immigrants’ dental health. Methodology: A systematic review was performed using the PRISMA flow chart. The chronological range was set at 2010-2020. Results / Findings: Changes in social life after migration play a critical role in the health of migrants and ethnic minorities, including their oral health. Immigrants and ethnic minorities experiencing social support either from their immediate environment (eg family members and friends) or from the wider community have had increased use of dental care and improved oral health, including caries and periodontitis. disease. In addition, social support had a positive effect on oral health self-assessment and on the quality of life associated with oral health. Immigrants and ethnic minorities with strong social ties also had more knowledge about oral health and oral care. Conclusions: Several current emerging threats and risks exposing public health vulnerabilities are linked to global processes such as the economy, trade, transport, the environment and climate change, and political security. International migration, which is a supporting element and consequence of globalization, is increasingly affecting the health of countries of origin, transit and reception of migrants.
The correlation between inclusion, sport and physical activity can be understood by policy agendas, as they place sport and physical activity as a means of enhancing social cohesion and as a means of facilitating cultural and linguistic empowerment of migrants trying to successfully settle in a new country. In the context of the present study, an attempt is made to demonstrate that participation in sports and physical activity is involved in the production and negotiation of cultural capital in various ways related to processes and experiences of cultural integration and exclusion. The systematic review of publications between the years 2010-2021 is attempted through the use of the preferred reference framework for systematic reviews and meta-analyzes (PRISMA). Existing findings support the role that sport can contribute in promoting integration. Nevertheless, there are different views. On the one hand, there is evidence to suggest that sport can promote interaction between people from different cultures. On the other hand, there are also indications that participation in sports can exacerbate cultural differences, thus causing tensions. Greece is, among many other countries, a country of intense diversity due to increased immigration. A clear National Curriculum should set the goals of physical education, which is an important part of schools and a compulsory subject in basic education. Physical education is a school subject that aims to contribute to the holistic well-being of students by supporting their physical, social and psychological functional ability and positive body image.
From a political point of view, nontypical migration tends to be the result of immigration controls and the legal framework in the countries of destination. Illegal status and nontypical immigration are perceived as legal products. Irregularity is neither an occurrence achieved nor an unchanging condition. Under the abovementioned scope, the legal framework of Greece concerning the nontypical migration should be gathered, studied, and analyzed. Although every political entity can be considered as the sum of its parts, it must be taken into account that it is a whole that is capable of acting autonomously on the world stage. Nontypical migration may widely be considered as a phenomenon of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, although concerns about the appearance itself seem to be growing faster than the phenomenon itself. Nontypical immigration is no exception or cultural pathology, rather may be seen as a structural feature of modern society.
The trends that have been witnessed over the last 15 years with regard to immigration to Greece are particularly strong and definitely without any historical evidence. These advancements have obviously changed Greece’s position on the geopolitical map, providing it a place in the host countries of immigrants, while it has historically been a country of expatriates. Interestingly, the intensification of migration flows, especially when combined with the expansion of the role of migration for the temporal changes of the population as a whole, name for an increase in the importance of migration as a demographic and social component as a whole. The Greek policies concerning the role of the tutor as a leader in multicultural environments are gathered, studied, and analyzed. Fragmentation of policies, which falls in line with the attempts to solve the problems of refugees, are key components. The most relevant effect of this circumstance is not limited to the economic and political implications of the lives of the first immigrants, but primarily to the negative prospects of a stable social integration and prosperity for their descendants, i.e., the second- and third-generation “immigrants,” who are invited—and often in the literal sense indigenous—to cope with this situation.
All the global policies should take into consideration the phenomenon of the push-pull factors in order to achieve the highest level of qualitative and quantitative policies, i.e., economic acceptance and healthcare policies of the immigrants. Policies need to be based on and take into account new approaches to cosmopolitanism, hybridity, and diffusion, in order to be able to cope adequately with new globalized and heterogeneous migration flows following, studying, and presenting the main objective of the meta-analysis theory procedure of this abstract. The allocation of immigration policies by central authorities can take place at different rates in different societies, depending on the level of economic and social development, but also on the prevalence of migration flows, notably in the Mediterranean countries with the highest migration rates. It is relatively common for managerial and control policies criticizing immigration representations of individual assimilation as representative of discriminatory bans on social and racial classes and quotas on other anti-policies, while at the same time promoting and reinforcing racist theories.
The purpose of this research is to map the effect of migration flows and crime on the monitoring of crime in Greece and, in general, its capital, Athens. From a political economy perspective, one version of the study of the phenomenon of the settlement of migration flows and the theoretical understanding of its causes and significance in the modern age can also be considered. Specifically, there is a growing demand for specific types of employment and a flexible, unprotected, and low-cost workforce. Undocumented immigrants are typically clustered in regions, sectors, and markets where the availability of cheap and versatile labor is growing and which tend to avoid regulation and oversight: in global major cities and rural areas, in areas such as manufacturing, tourism, small businesses, and households. Large urban centers, for instance, not only provide anonymity but provide a variety of opportunities for employment in emerging unofficial sectors. Moreover, in times of economic crisis and galloping unemployment, irregular migration is associated with real or alleged criminality.
At a time when rates, employment demands, insecurity and stress are on the rapidly increasing, exhaustion and stress are becoming an everyday reality for more and more professionals, with detrimental effects on their health, family and professional relationships.The aim of the study is to evaluate statistically significant differences of professionals between general and mental health hospitals.A questionnaire survey was carried out on 128 employees in general health units and 99 employees in mental health units, in Athens, Greece.The results showed statistically significant differences in the variable of personal achievement to a significant level.Employees in mental health units provide a higher average value for this variable than employees in general hospitals.The variable of personal achievement demonstrated statistically significant differences between employees of different age groups, marital status and educational level.Older employees, married employees and lower-level educated employees have been identified to have a higher mean value as a variable of personal achievement.Statistically significant differences were observed in relation to emotional exhaustion factor among employees of different specializations.Nurses, and subsequently physicians, report higher mean values for emotional exhaustion than managers and paramedical employees who report lower mean values for this variable.Enhancing awareness of the phenomenon of occupational burn-out can lead to development of effective intervention measures aimed at improving the well-being of medical and nursing staff, assuring the best possible outcome with the least possible medical risk and optimizing maximum possible health risk of patients.
