Abstract
The substantial heterogeneity of the migrant population and the vulnerability of children make require that we equip ourselves with knowledge and tools to provide comprehensive as well as appropriate care to migrant children.
This publication is presented in two chapters and is aimed at pediatricians who provide care to migrant children. Migrant children include refugees, adopted people, unaccompanied minors, immigrant children and adolescents and children of migrant families, as well as people visiting relatives and friends.
