Dynamics of Residential Differentiation and Segregation of Foreigners in Czech Metropolitan Areas
Klsák, Adam ; Ouředníček, Martin (advisor) ; Čermák, Zdeněk (referee) ; Uherek, Zdeněk (referee)
Czechia has become a noteworthy case study of international migration within Central and Eastern Europe. With a steadily increasing inflow of international migrants, it is anticipated that their contribution to the societal and urban dynamics will become more pronounced. This influx has led to a rise in socio-economic and ethnic heterogeneity, reflected in spatial patterns where distinctive population groups are localized. The expe- riences from traditional immigration countries indicate that the voluntary concentration of foreigners into ethnic enclaves often serves as an intermediary phase in the integration process. However, it can also pose significant risks in situations where immigrants are not willing to participate in broader society or face exclusion. The primary goal of this dissertation is to enhance the comprehension of the spatial distribution of foreigners across selected Czech metropolitan areas and to explain the related phenomena on multiple scales within the urban hierarchy. The investigation seeks suitable data sources and methodological frameworks to analyze the current state, trajectory, determinants, and particularities of socio-spatial differentiation and segrega- tion. Furthermore, a significant focus lies in the nuanced and theoretically grounded interpretation of results,...

LACINOVÁ, Petra
The bachelor thesis deals with the art therapy support of children-foreigners during their adaptation period in the Czech Republic after resettlement from their country of origin. Specifically, it presents the experience of group art therapy with Ukrainian refugee children arriving in the Czech Republic after the Russian army invaded their homeland in February 2022. The theoretical part describes the circumstances and changes of the immigration situation in the Czech Republic due to the influx of refugees from Ukraine, the legislation applicable to foreign children living in the Czech Republic and the ways of supporting children with a different mother tongue in the Czech education system. One subchapter is devoted to the cultural and historical context of Ukraine, which is essential for the overall understanding of the political and social situation, as it contributes to the formation of the identity of Ukrainian children. The second chapter deals with the usual psychological themes of newly arrived children from another country. The practical part describes the course and focus of art therapy sessions for Ukrainian children, presents four case studies supported by children's artwork and defines the specifics of art therapy work with the chosen target group.

Social work with foreigners from the point of view of the Authority for Social and Legal Protection of Children
FAJTLOVÁ, Tereza
This diploma thesis is part of the project entitled "Selected aspects of the integration of foreigners living in the Czech Republic and their relationship to social work" (reg. no. GAJU 101/2022/S). The aim of the work is to analyze and describe the barriers of social work with foreigners from the point of view of the social and legal protection of children (OSPOD). For the purposes of the thesis, two research questions were chosen. 1. What differences do social workers from OSPOD encounter during social investigations of foreigners? 2. What is the course of social work with foreigners? The diploma thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part, the terms related to migration are defined, it also deals with social work with foreigners, defines its methods and support networks for foreigners, and last but not least, the definitions related to the authority for the social and legal protection of children, its characteristics, the legal framework and next. The practical part of the work contains the results of research related to social work with foreigners from the point of view of the authority for the social and legal protection of children. A qualitative research strategy, an interview method and a semi-structured interview technique were chosen for the preparation of this diploma thesis according to the instructions. Interviews were conducted with OSPOD managers or with other employees authorized by the manager. The interviews were evaluated using an open coding method and nine domains were created. Based on the research, it was found that social work with foreigners from the point of view of the social-legal child protection can be in many respects the same as with Czech clients, but the truth is that in connection with the outbreak of war in Ukraine, this situation of workers brought a lot of work and which they have not encountered until now, such as working with unaccompanied minors or other education system in Ukraine. The work was mostly time-consuming and psychologically demanding, but the informants' testimony showed that the OSPOD workers here had many positive things and these experiences brought them personal development and insight into another culture. The information obtained showed that the biggest barrier when working with foreigners is the language barrier. A problem related to the language barrier is also the lack of interpreters, which complicates the whole situation when working with foreigners, and social workers had to look for other solutions to communicate with foreigners. Other barriers are for example unrealistic expectations and mistrust on the part of clients, arrogance, non-acceptance of Czech law and reluctance to accept a new environment. On the part of OSPOD employees it is for example orientation in legislation related to the outbreak of war in Ukraine. It was about orientation in temporary protection, asylum law and permanent residence. As a result, OSPOD social workers had to adapt their work according to cultural differences. This work has the potential to assist other social workers in improving their readiness to work with foreigners. It can also be assumed that this work will serve as study and informational material.

Health insurance of foreigners in the Czech Republic
Žabka, Jan ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Health insurance of foreigners in the Czech Republic Abstract The main topic of this master thesis is the issue of health insurance of foreigners in the Czech Republic. Its goal is not only an analysis of the current legal regulation of this insurance, but also proposals for its possible development in the future. The thesis is focused on foreigners primarily for the reason that, while Czech citizens' access to health insurance is relatively unproblematic, in the case of foreigners there are many complications and obstacles. In the first chapter, the author first deals with foreigners who participate in the public health insurance system. In this part, he mainly draws attention to the inappropriate legal regulation, which concerns the access of persons to public health insurance, as well as to the imperfect formulation of the conditions of application of one of the coordination regulations. In the second chapter, on the other hand, the author focuses on foreigners who do not participate in public health insurance and must therefore conclude commercial health insurance for foreigners. The chapter on commercial health insurance for foreigners is divided into two subsections. The first deals with basic health insurance for foreigners and the second with comprehensive health insurance for foreigners. The...

Providing nursing care to foreigners from the perspective of nursing students
KAVANOVÁ, Tereza
This bachelor thesis focuses on the provision of nursing care to foreigners from the perspective of nursing student. During their internship, nursing students are part of the department's day-to-day operations. It is therefore necessary to provide them with a sufficient amount of information in transcultural nursing. The aim of this thesis is to map students' experiences in providing nursing care to foreigners and thus learn information that could help other students to provide quality transcultural nursing care. The bachelor thesis consists of a theoretical and an empirical part. The theoretical part deals with migration, multiculturalism and transcultural nursing. It also focuses on education in the field of multicultural education. The characteristics and specifics of nursing care for selected minorities and religions are also indispensable parts of chapters. A qualitative method of data collection has been chosen for the empirical part of the bachelor thesis. Data collection has been performed using semi-structured interviews, taken from 12 nursing students. The results of the interviews have been processed into 4 categories, which relate to students' communication with foreigners, current studies in multicultural nursing, knowledge and experience of students in transcultural nursing. The research shows that all students met with nursing care for a patient of a different minority. The biggest problem for the students was the language barrier, as well as the tedious nursing care of this patient or non-cooperation on the part of the patient. According to the answers, it most often occurred in patients of the Romani people. For the students, the Romani represented not only the non-cooperating patient, but also the patient who had the most specifics during nursing care. The results of this bachelor thesis can be used by nursing students in education in this area.
