Mothers and Children of All Nations Defying the Odds (MACONDO)
The MACONDO Research Team aims to address health and mental health disparities among families in order to ensure that everyone, regardless of where they are from, can have a healthy development. The Team specifically focuses on immigrant and migrant families who have encountered several adversities prior to migrating to another country/city and who continue facing difficult experiences after migrating. Through empirical research, the Team aims to ameliorate barriers to access care and to promote the use of evidence-based interventions that can promote wellbeing of immigrant and migrant families in the host country.Â
