The quality of life of Latin Americans in New Zealand and globally. A Literature review

      Аннотация: Extensive research on the settlement and experiences of refugees and immigrants has been conducted in New Zealand and globally. Nevertheless, there is a significant gap in the research related to Latin American migrants and refugees in New Zealand and their perception of quality of life. This review analyses the theoretical concept of quality of life in light of the existing literature on this topic. It describes the quality of life as seen from Latin American migrants’ perceptions and the factors impacting the quality of life for migrants and refugees not only in New Zealand but worldwide as well. Finally, this review explores the complexity of migrant and refugee status from the political, cultural, social and economic perspectives associated with their quality of life.
