Effective Cultural Adaptation Practices for Intervening with Migrant and Culturally Diverse Women in Perinatal Settings: A Scoping Review

Research into cultural adaptation in healthcare for migrant women remains relatively limited. It is becoming imperative to invest more in this research to better understand how to adapt medical practices, health policies and outreach programs to meet the unique needs of this population. This scoping review therefore aims to explore existing knowledge to identify best practices, develop adapted protocols, and promote greater awareness among healthcare professionals. These efforts will help to create inclusive, culturally adapted care environments that effectively promote the health of migrant and women from diverse cultural backgrounds. Cultural adaptation measures for migrant women’s healthcare thus represent a crucial step towards achieving a more equitable, accessible, and culturally adapted healthcare system for the migrant population.
