    Mental health of adolescents in refugee camps in Ethiopia: The development of an exploratory model based on traumatic experience, coping and resilience
    (University of the Western Cape, 2023) Danga, Solomon Dribsa; Roman, Nicolette
    Refugees routinely experience a number of traumatic events that may result in poor mental health due to persecution, conflict and displacement. Children and adolescent refugees particularly migrate with histories of exposure to traumatic events. Previous studies have also shown increased rates of mental health concerns among refugees forcibly displaced during adolescence, indicating that these young refugees may be a particularly vulnerable sub-group within the broader global refugee population. However, the current research did not provide clarity regarding the association between risk factors and buffering protective factors on the mental health of adolescent refugees.
