Mentality Podcast

SE3 Ep3 - Migration & mental health (Part I) with Morshed Akhtar, Keshav Shree & Teresa Norman


Listen Later

Migration, migration, migration.

We often hear the perspectives of host countries and how they feel and view migration - the good and the bad.  

In this episode, I turn my attention and the mic to those who have migrated to the UK. The guests share their stories and views on the topic, and the impact migration can have on one's mental health.

We chat about:

  • What migration is and the stages of migration
  • First hand experiences of migration
  • How migration can affect one's mental health
