Effective Cultural Adaptation Practices for Intervening with Migrant and Culturally Diverse Women in Perinatal Settings: A Scoping Review.

Résumé

The aim of this scoping review is to identify and analyze perinatal interventions specifically designed or culturally adapted for migrant or women from diverse cultural backgrounds who are pregnant or of childbearing age. Introduction: Cultural adaptation in perinatal healthcare involves adjusting practices to meet the specific cultural and linguistic needs of migrant mothers or those from culturally diverse backgrounds (Weeks, 2022; Marshall et al., 2021). Inclusion criteria: The articles included will focus on perinatal interventions. We are interested in practices that were adapted specifically for mothers, pregnant women, or women of childbearing age from a migrant background (all migratory statuses are included) or from culturally diverse communities. Studies published in a language other than English or French that do not directly address perinatal interventions, cultural diversity, or migratory status in the title and abstract will be excluded.
