• Embraces a truly global approach, exploring contexts across North America, the UK, Africa, Latin America, South Asia, Turkey, and East Asia.
• Delves into pressing issues and methodologies such as narrative medicine, ecoprecarity, toxicity, mental health, and contaminated environments.
• Offers a comprehensive survey of the current state and future directions of research at the intersection of these two vital fields.
