They often have increased health needs due to their experiences pre, during, and post displacement. Despite host countries’ duty to address these needs, many European states are implementing restrictive and hostile immigration policies that further marginalise this population. Racism, xenophobia, and systemic discrimination within healthcare systems contribute to inequalities in access, entitlements, and quality of care. Healthcare barriers include:  \ndiscriminatory user-fees; inadequate interpretation services; cultural biases; and discrimination by healthcare professionals. These obstacles limit access to essential medical care and health promotion services, and negatively impact the mental health of child migrants by reinforcing social exclusion and systemic inequities. Studies suggest that providing inclusive healthcare services to displaced populations could be a cost-effective public health approach, yet many countries fail to implement such policies.  \nConclusion: To combat racism, xenophobia, and discrimination in healthcare and address the inequities experienced by forcibly displaced children an integrated approach is necessary.
