Seminar for Integrationsnet (Danish Refugee Council) on "Sundhed og trivsel i eksil - sundhedsfaglige og socialfaglige perspektiver i arbejdet med udsatte flygtninge og indvandrere", Copenhagen, Denmark
Kvinder med ikke-vestlige baggrund er kund i mindre grad deltagende på arbejdsmarkedet. Der hard derfor også længe været gang i udviklingen af metoder til at få kvinder med flygtninge og invandrerbaggrund på arbejdsmarkedet, men de skla kobles sammen med viden om målgruppen for at vi kan få bedst effekt.

Jinn are part of a practicing Muslim's daily life. Opinions about the influence of jinn vary greatly. They are usually invisible, with a tendency of interfering in humans' lives. Occasionally they are said to even take over a human Muslim body, frequent-ly a female. Dealing with the risk of interference by jinn can cause stress and other health issues. This is aggravated by the fact that jinn are connected to an invisible world filled with demons, black magic, witchcraft and the evil eye. Muslims are belie-ved to protect themselves, through keeping their obligations to Islam, such as prayer, fasting, and reading Quran. Hence prevention against jinn encourages a return to the textualized model of Islam. To heal affliction attributed to jinn, Islamic religious scholars or healers are consulted for support, occasionally involving considerable financial investments and travels.
Migration, communication with affordable portable devices through social media have brought the world closer together. These processes facilitate the transfer of belief in jinn into European health landscapes, like England, Denmark, or Germany. Various Muslim healing strategies and "Western" (mental) health care system compete, collide, overlap and sometimes com-plement each other. In order to be efficient, Western health care may be well-advised to reflect about these powerful concepts and perceptions that may impede its efficiency.
In this workshop, clinical physicians, psychologists, anthropologists, Muslim scholars and scholars of Middle Eastern culture and Islamic Studies discuss through case studies, clinical practice and research, how concepts and perceptions of jinn influence physical and mental health adapt to global processes of change. And how are traditional healing strategies contextualized in "Western" health care systems?
