Habitat fragmentation describes the division of a more extensive, continuous habitat into smaller, discontinuous areas. Human activities such as land conversion, as well as slower geological processes leading to changes in the physical environment, are the two leading causes of habitat fragmentation. The fragmentation process typically follows the same steps: perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage, and attrition.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Community Engagement
  • Health Equity

Background:

  • Physical activity programs are vital for community health but underutilized by refugee-background populations.
  • Underutilization by refugee communities limits potential multilevel health and social benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore strategies for increasing engagement of refugee-background communities in local physical activity programs in Brisbane, Australia.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators for participation from provider and agency perspectives.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study employing semi-structured interviews with program providers and refugee service agencies.
  • Reflexive thematic analysis to interpret interview data.

Main Results:

  • Three key themes emerged: enhancing cultural safety via intersectoral collaboration, overcoming public health policy barriers, and empowering community capacity.
  • Localized, deep intersectoral collaborations are crucial for meeting refugee community needs.
  • Systemic barriers hinder collaboration and contribute to the marginalization of refugee populations.

Conclusions:

  • Effective engagement necessitates addressing systemic exclusion and fostering deep, localized collaborations.
  • Improving cultural safety and policy environments are essential for equitable participation in public health initiatives.
  • Capacity building and community empowerment can diversify the sector and promote inclusivity.
