There is limited evidence on the social determinants of health of internally displaced persons (IDPs) who have been forced from their homes due to armed conflict but remain within the borders of their country. The aim of this study was to explore the social determinants of overall physical and mental health of IDPs, including the response strategies used by IDPs to support their health needs. Northern Uganda was chosen as a case-study, and 21 face-to-face semistructured interviews with IDPs were conducted in fifteen IDP camps between November and December 2006. 2026-09-30T11:43:12Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33351963.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/An_exploration_of_social_determinants_of_health_amongst_internally_displaced_persons_in_northern_Uganda/33351963 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
