Loneliness, isolation, and violence among migrant women: The LIVE project's holistic approach to community mental health

LONELINESS, ISOLATION, AND VIOLENCE IN MIGRANT WOMEN: THE LIVE PROJECT’S INTEGRATED APPROACH TO COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH

The LIVE project proposes a culturally sensitive, community-based initiative that brings psychiatry, forensic medicine, and social services together in a single consortium to reduce the burden of loneliness and gender-based violence among migrant women.

The project aims to measure the psychiatric burden among migrant women and offer a regional intervention grounded in cultural competence. Its rationale is that gender inequality, cultural distance, isolation, and gender-based violence (GBV) overlap in this group, increasing depression, anxiety, and trauma, while routine care rarely reaches these women because of stigma, low health literacy, and insecure status. In the project design, psychiatry, forensic medicine, and social services work as a single consortium; groups of up to 12 participants receive 12 weeks of culturally mediated psychoeducation, with support provided through cultural mediators and tablet-based health literacy tools. The primary outcome measure is the UCLA Loneliness Scale, administered at T0, T1, and T2. The target sample comprises approximately 154 vulnerable migrant women to be reached through community centers and healthcare networks in Novara, Italy, and in Cyprus. Expected outcomes are benchmarked against published studies: reductions in loneliness and social isolation (meta-analytic g of approximately 0.43 for psychological interventions; d of approximately 0.57 for guided internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy), increased health literacy and reduced stigma, and increased GBV awareness and empowerment. The poster notes that these benchmarks were derived from similar communities and that LIVE's target values will be validated using study data; the project has been approved under the Gender Equality strand of the European Union's CERV Programme, with funding assessment ongoing. In conclusion, LIVE is presented as a scalable and transferable community mental health framework that combines rigorous clinical assessment with regional socioeducational support.
