1 Manuscript Title: Safety, Health and Trauma among newly arrived refugees in Greece Abstract This study identifies the factors that affect safety, health and trauma among refugees and asylum- seekers newly arrived and accommodated in Greece. The data of this study was collected from the REHEAL (Refugees’ Healing) project, a population-based survey conducted in six Greek refugee camps during the summer of 2016. We specified two binary logistic regression models, one for safety and a second for health, as well as a multiple linear regression model for the trauma score. Safety, health and trauma among refugees seem to be attributed to both pre and post- displacement factors. The analysis shows that the mental and physiological well-being of refugees and asylum seekers is strongly affected by post-displacement factors and, more specifically, by exposure to stressors in host countries, such as poor living conditions, limited access to health care services and uncertainty about the future.
