Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a relatively common inflammatory skin disease marked by eczematous lesions and pruritus often leading to significant morbidity and quality of life impairment for those affected. Recent studies have shown that patients with skin of color (SOC) carry a larger disease burden than patients of European descent. In the USA, these disparities are partly due to structural, environmental, and interpersonal racism. From a global perspective, there is a paucity of research on the burden of atopic dermatitis and other inflammatory skin diseases experienced by the record numbers of refugees, migrants, and asylum seekers around the world. Although it is still unclear whether the true prevalence of AD in displaced communities is higher compared with the general population, those who are displaced suffer from unique risk factors that render them especially vulnerable. In this review, we outline a number of factors contributing to AD susceptibility and/or aggravation in displaced communities. These include poor living conditions, climate change events, psychological stress, and lack of access to medical care and health-related behaviors.
