Objectives: Guidelines and training initiatives (G/TIs)
are available to support communication in crosscultural
consultations but are rarely implemented in
routine practice in primary care. As part of the
European Union RESTORE project, our objective was to
explore whether the available G/TIs make sense to
migrants and other key stakeholders and whether they
could collectively choose G/TIs and engage in their
implementation in primary care settings.
