Beschreibung:
Oliver Razum, Jacob Spallek and Melina Arnold are researchers at the Department of Epidemiology & International Public Health, School of Public Health, Bielefeld University (Germany). Anna Reeske is a researcher at the Bremen Institute for Prevention Research and Social Medicine, Bremen University. The editors' research interests comprise cancer epidemiology, migrant health and health inequalities.
Migration-sensitive monitoring of health is essential in order to assess and react to changing health care needs of culturally diverse groups in Europe. One example is cancer registration, allowing for the ascertainment and analysis of trends in cancer occurrence and survival in good time. This book for the first time presents a detailed overview and methodological discussion of migration-sensitive cancer registration in selected European countries. It describes the current situation on the European level by means of five country reports, written in close collaborations with local experts. It examines the ideas of developing common indicators, standardizing data collection procedures and enhancing networking throughout Europe.
