Migration, especially that triggered by conflict, climate instability causing natural disasters, or economic pressures, often triggers mass displacement of people (World Health Organization, 2016). Refugees and migrants often must live in densely populated areas with poor sanitation conditions and very limited access to health services (Feizi et al., 2023). This situation creates an ideal environment for the spread of infectious diseases such as leprosy, where close and repeated interactions between sufferers and healthy individuals can increase the risk of transmission (Mahardita et al., 2019; Susanto, 2020). Overcrowding in refugee camps and limited health facilities make early detection and treatment of leprosy difficult, allowing the disease to spread undetected (Bulstra et al., 2021).</jats:p>  a2686-116X, 2528-2557
