Para além dos retratos comuns sobre a condição de refúgio e de migração: narrativas de mulheres palestinas sobre seu protagonismo no Brasil

Abstract

This article deals with processes of overcoming refuge and migration situations. We start from the observation that both situations are characterized, in general, by vulnerability, having seen the exposure of the people involved to situations of survival limits. However, by demonstrating a lesser known side of this context, we intend to give visibility and voice to examples of overcoming and female Arab-Palestinian protagonist of these situations, through the reports of experiences of two women of Palestinian origin, who took refuge in Brazil and currently assist refugees. / the ones that arrive here. As methodology we use bibliographic research and structured interviews, whose narratives we will interpret based on the statements. The reports corroborate the need for a longitudinal look at the implications of migration and refuge processes in which the resilience and overcoming capacity of women who have experienced such processes is manifested and despite their state of vulnerability, point out that the main supporters the actions are people and civil entities, given the current disregard of the public power towards these projects.
