DESCRIPTION:Geographies of Health Reading Group\nThe Geographies of Health
  Reading Group discusses a wide variety of topics within the field of Heal
 th and Medical Geography. Starting from one or two articles\, the reading 
 group offers the opportunity for an open discussion around a subject sugge
 sted by one of the group members. To propose a topic and articles\, please
  contact the convener\, Lander Bosch  lsmmb2@cam.ac.uk\n\nEveryone with an
  interest in public health and health-related issues in geography or relat
 ed disciplines is very welcome to join any session.\n\n\n\nWHERE: HPSS Lib
 rary\, Sir William Hardy Building (First floor\, Room 108)\, Downing Site.
 \n\nMORE INFORMATION: the Group’s webpage on the website of the Departme
 nt of Geography.\n\n \n\nGeographies of the life-course: Migration and the
  transition to adulthood\nLife transitions are located in and move through
  a range of geographical contexts and scales. Both spatial transfer and th
 e reason for migrating are associated with variability in physical\, socia
 l and health outcomes for women and men. However\, the ways in which spati
 al relocation and place-based exposures are associated with age\, specific
 ally the social and biological transition to adulthood\, requires further 
 research.\n\n \n\nThe first article (Findlay\, McCollum\, Coulter\, & Gayl
 e\, 2015) proposes an integrative conceptual framework for geographical re
 search on mobility and migration across the life-course. The second articl
 e (Beegle & Poulin\,\n\n2013) uses longitudinal data to understand the gen
 dered life-course pathways of rural-out migration of youth in contemporary
  Malawi.\n\n \n\nFindlay\, A.\, McCollum\, D.\, Coulter\, R.\, & Gayle\, V

  demographically linked drivers of migration. Population\, Space and Place

  \n\nThese articles may stimulate discussions around:\n\nWhat hypotheses c
 an be generated from the geographical life-course framework on transitions
  to adulthood in the global south?\nDoes migration in the global south sup
 port socio-economic mobility\, or does it reproduce social and gender ineq
 uality?\n
