The election is very much associated with democracy. As Indonesia is constitutionally democratic the country is also committed to holding the election regularly. However, as Indonesia is a unitary state, identifying local elections with democratization might be questionable.

The vast majority of the 100 million forcibly displaced persons worldwide live in a state of prolonged uncertainty with limited resettlement prospects and access to resources. Little is known, however, regarding how refugees and asylum-seekers cope with this uncertainty.

Refugees and asylum seekers in contexts of sustained displacement represent particularly vulnerable communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study was to identify profiles of COVID-19 stressors in refugees in a transit context (i.e., Indonesia) and examine the relationship between these profiles of stressors and mental health and well-being.
