dc.description.abstractMigration has become more common as globalisation has required more and more people to be transferred to countries other than their own for short or long term placements. Numerous women experience migration due to their husbands being transferred, yet the literature does not reveal much about how women adapt to their new situation as migrating women. If there are implications of this phenomenon for health, little research has been done to describe this. The aim of this study was to explore the lived experiences of women who have migrated as expatriates. The study aimed to ascertain if there were health effects as a reult of migration and how these are understood and experienced.en_ZA
