AB - This study applies a scoping review to map the literature on the rights advocacy and health-welfare practices of Caritas and Diakonie within the German refugee protection system over the past quarter-century (2000–2026). Following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines for study selection, 35 articles selected from five major databases were analyzed. Temporal analysis demonstrated that this academic landscape evolved alongside European migration crises, shifting from simple relief toward politicized welfare and a multi-level governance paradigm. Qualitative mapping revealed structural complementarity: Catholic Caritas focused on micro-level healthcare relief for blind spots (alternative clinics, anonymous vouchers) based on the principle of subsidiarity and diocesan infrastructure, whereas Protestant Diakonie excelled in macro-level activities, generating counter-discourses in civil society and fostering intercultural communication education based on the Missio Dei (Mission of God) theology. This study restructured and synthesized the epistemological mismatch between grassroots actors and state policies using a multi-dimensional framework. These findings will serve as baseline literature for South Korea, which currently experiences an institutional mismatch between macro policies and micro welfare, to help define the rights advocacy role of private welfare actors and build a Korean-style intercultural integration governance model.
