Background and Objectives: Food literacy is a multidimensional concept that encompasses the knowledge, skills and motivation to effectively access and use nutrition information. Improving food literacy can promote healthier eating habits, reduce the risk of diet-related diseases, and improve the overall well-being of university students. This study aims to assess the level of food and nutrition literacy among university students.

Material and Methods: The population of the study consisted of students of xxx University, while the sample consisted of 560 students. The data of the study were collected using socio-demographic information form and Food and Nutrition Literacy Scale (FNL). Descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wall test were used to analyse the data.

Results: It was found that women scored higher on the attitude dimension, that the mean score on the knowledge and behaviour dimension increased with increasing age, that the score of the students of the Vocational School of Health Services was lower than that of the other departments on the knowledge and behaviour dimension, and that the scores on the knowledge and behaviour dimension increased with increasing class. It was found that the behavioural dimension of those who received nutrition support was higher than those who did not, and the mean score of those who received nutrition education was higher in the knowledge and behaviour dimension (p<0.05).

Conclusion: It was found that students did not have an adequate level of food and nutrition literacy and that gender, age, class and education influenced this level. In line with these findings, it is recommended that training programmes aimed at raising awareness of healthy eating should be expanded in universities and that sustainable food policies should be developed to enable students to make informed food choices.

Migration refers to the relocation of individuals for better living conditions, due to the lack of security or economic reasons. It has shaped social, cultural, and economic structures throughout history, influencing both individual lives and societies. Particularly after the onset of the Syrian civil war in 2011, the concept of “forced migration” has gained prominence in Türkiye. Forced migration involves individuals compelled to leave their regions due to wars, natural disasters, or human rights violations. Asylum seekers and refugees often face multidimensional challenges, including language barriers, cultural differences, and social exclusion. Migration health encompasses a holistic approach aimed at preserving the physical, mental, and social well-being of the person.

Hosting the largest asylum seeker and refugee population globally, Türkiye has become a key player in international migration health. Civil Society Organizations (CSO) play critical roles in promoting health literacy, cultural adaptation, and strengthening primary healthcare services. Strengthening public-CSO partnerships, leveraging digital solutions to facilitate service accessibility, and ensuring long-term financial support are vital for sustainable solutions in migration health. With its comprehensive approach, Türkiye not only supports the health and integration of asylum seekers and refugees but also serves as a model for best practices on a global scale, contributing to societal health and cohesion.

2025-03-17T10:13:53+00:00

Abstract:
Oncogynaecological diseases, including cervical, endometrial, ovarian cancers, and others, require a comprehensive and multi-layered approach to diagnosis and treatment. Early detection of these diseases is crucial for successful treatment and increasing survival chances. While traditional medical exams remain the foundation for diagnosis, telemedicine offers new ways of delivering these services, especially in situations where access to healthcare specialists is limited.

The aim of this paper is to explore the applications of telemedicine in the diagnosis of oncogynaecological diseases, focusing on the advantages, challenges, and potential of this innovative technology. By analyzing current practices and research in this field, we will attempt to outline the future of telemedicine in oncogynaecology and its impact on women's health.
