Dealing with the needs of asylum seekers and refugees regarding various health-related information and healthcare services is a challenge for healthcare service providers. According to the Finnish Immigration Service (2022), there were 61,645 new asylum applications between January 2015 and July 2022 in Finland. Immigrants and newcomers who want to initially settle down in a new country may face various challenges in accessing different health-related information and healthcare services. An area of concern is their health-related information or health needs, having access to medical information and services, and familiarity with the process and the procedures of using these services in a host country (Ahmadinia et al., 2021, 2022; Kidane et al., 2021; Willey et al., 2022). This study aims to investigate information-seeking behaviour from the perspective of cultural and ethnic backgrounds among people with asylum-seeking background living in Finland. This extended abstract presents a part of a larger study including interviews also in Norway and Sweden, presenting preliminary findings of an original qualitative study on Persian-speaking people with asylum-seeking background and their health-seeking behaviour in terms of health-related needs and utilisation in Finland.
