  • Summary

  • This QMU podcast discusses Queen Margaret University’s research into the loneliness and isolation that our refugee community in Scotland has experienced during the pandemic, the real impact it has had on their lives and how it has affected their ability to integrate and contribute to their new communities. Importantly, we will look at the impact that loneliness and isolation can have on forgotten groups of people in society, and what lessons can be learned for the future to help support people with their integration into a new country, ensuring that they become valued and engaged members of society.

    Contributing to the discussion from Queen Margaret University’s Institute for Global Health and Development are Senior Research Fellow Dr Alison Strang, Research Assistant Dr Nicole Vidal, and Lecturer Oonagh O’Brien. Dr Olivia Sagan, Head of the Division of Psychology, Sociology and Education at Queen Margaret University also provides an insight into the subject of loneliness.
