Reframing everyday occupation in the context of migration: Drawing on projects in Gothenburg & Stockholm

• Introduction: The topic of migration concerns many people with an immediate impact on culture, politics, education, and healthcare around the world. The geographical mobility associated with migration arguably challenges the form, function, and meaning of everyday occupations and thus has a direct impact upon peoples health. This workshop will tackle some of these topics by drawing on a series of ongoing community and intervention projects. Aims: to explore topics of everyday occupations in the context of migration from multiple perspectives. Methods: workshop consists of short presentations followed by groupwork. Outcomes: at the end of this workshop, participants will have: 1) Reflected on challenges concerning research in areas of migration and occupational therapy/occupational science, 2) applied concepts of diversity to own practice, 3) applied concepts and ideas from presentations through groupwork with a WFOT position paper, and 4) initiated contact with occupational therapists from around the world who share common interests.
