The COVID-19 pandemic forced the Portuguese government to declare various lockdowns between 2020 and 2022. The first State of Emergency was enforced in March 2020, in which face-to-face classroom teaching was repeatedly interrupted. At that time, families were expected to provide the necessary supplies for digital learning, with some support from t...

Apesar de em Portugal existirem políticas públicas de combate às desigualdades, incluindo as escolares, a origem socioeconômica, o gênero e a pertença étnica dos estudantes continuam a ter um impacto incontornável nos percursos escolares. Os ciganos são dos mais afetados por essas desigualdades, reveladas pelas ainda salientes taxas de abandono esc...
In Portuguese society, some Cigano/Roma women, during their life paths, distance themselves from the Cigano cultural tradition, particularly in regard to marriage, schooling, employment and social life. On the one hand, there is a feeling of attachment to traditional values as family pressure to marry or in relation to gender differentiation; on th...
Since higher education qualifications and digital transition are considered key factors for economic development and individual opportunities, distance learning has been presented as a solution to improve the labor force’s skills and employability. However, such links were seldom studied systematically in specific contexts, and doubts exist regardi...

No quadro europeu de uma aposta estratégica em sociedades cada vez mais escolarizadas e inclusivas, o desafio da presença de diferentes culturas nas escolas requer a implementação de políticas que promovam a não discriminação. No entanto, os ciganos Portugueses constituem-se ainda como um grupo cultural e étnico aparentemente imune aos objetivos de...

Compliance with compulsory schooling, school success and control of school drop-out are far from being achieved targets in Portugal for Portuguese Roma (Ciganos) children and youth. The importance of schooling is now clearer, from the point of view of the State, which regulates the access of all to the public education system, or from the families...

The consolidation of the welfare state that took place after the 1974 revolution, particularly in the 1980s, improved the living standards of Portuguese citizens.

Despite the stereotyped homogenisation of the Ciganos (or Gypsies/Roma) – often perceived as poor and marginalised – many have in fact taken different personal and family life paths. Taking into account a perspective of differentiated socialisation processes, social and family contexts and frames of life experiences, the aim of this paper is to pre...
The coexistence of people and societies marked by ethnic, social, cultural, religious and linguistic diversity is a subject that still generates controversies in contemporary societies. The “Ciganos’ situation” is an unavoidable issue that crosses the boundaries of different European countries, which leads to controversy and ambivalence in the so-c...
A escolaridade concluída e a atividade profissional continuam a ser duas das principais dimensões consideradas para a definição do estatuto social dos indivíduos e para os lugares de classe na estrutura social (Schnapper, 2007; Estanque, 2005). A expetativa de obter um diploma do ensino superior é um objetivo que muitos indivíduos adultos procuram...

O objetivo deste projeto de investigação é o de analisar o papel e as práticas das instituições locais no processo de acolhimento de refugiados recolocados em Portugal desde 2015.
Volvido mais de um ano do início deste processo é possível, nesta fase, inquirir como decorrem os percursos de integração de refugiados recolocados em Portugal para as instituições envolvidas, questionando de que forma estas se envolveram no processo, as suas motivações, e as medidas concretas aplicadas, quer junto da comunidade local quer aos refugiados; e de que forma estes últimos foram envolvidos neste processo.
Este projeto permitirá produzir conhecimento sobre as práticas das instituições de acolhimento que possibilitem reconhecer a dimensão local nas diferentes práticas de acolhimento e integração, e propor recomendações para a política nacional para refugiados.
Projecto financiado pelo FAMI - n.º PT/2017/FAMI/151.
