With over 100 million humanitarian migrants globally, there is increasing pressure on high-income countries to offer resettlement opportunities. Humanitarian migrants face many challenges during pre-settlement and resettlement. One challenge is food insecurity (FI). The Building a New Life in Australia (BNLA) longitudinal cohort study gathered data from migrating units, that is, a group of humanitarian migrants included on the same visa application ( = 1599). Data were gathered in five annual waves (2013–2018). Data included food security status in four pre-settlement situations and during resettlement. The results of this secondary analysis of BNLA Wave One indicate that FI was highest in refugee camps (71%), followed by bridging visas (30%), community detention (17%), immigration detention (11%), and during early resettlement (9%). During early resettlement, respondents who were male, those from Afghanistan or Iran, and those living in a single person household reported the highest prevalence of FI. An association was found between having spent time on a bridging visa and FI during early resettlement (p < 0.01). This study's results are an important step in understanding the scale of FI and which sub-groups are most vulnerable, so the resources and policies of high-income countries can better meet food security needs during resettlement.

难民和寻求庇护者在澳大利亚早期重新定居期间和之前普遍存在粮食不安全问题:对“在澳大利亚建设新生活”数据的横断面分析

全球有超过 1 亿人道主义移民,高收入国家提供重新安置机会的压力越来越大。人道主义移民在预安置和重新安置期间面临许多挑战。其中一项挑战是粮食不安全 (FI)。在澳大利亚建设新生活 (BNLA) 纵向队列研究收集了来自移民单位的数据,即同一签证申请中包含的一组人道主义移民 (= 1599)。数据按年度五波(2013-2018)收集。数据包括四种安置前情况和安置期间的粮食安全状况。对 BNLA 第一波的二次分析结果表明,FI 在难民营中最高 (71%),其次是过桥签证 (30%)、社区拘留 (17%)、移民拘留 (11%) 和早期重新安置期间(9%)。在早期重新安置期间,男性受访者、来自阿富汗或伊朗的受访者以及居住在单人家庭的受访者报告的 FI 患病率最高。研究发现,在早期重新安置期间持有过桥签证的时间与 FI 之间存在关联(p < 0.01)。这项研究的结果是了解金融机构规模以及哪些亚群体最脆弱的重要一步,因此高收入国家的资源和政策可以更好地满足移民期间的粮食安全需求。
