CARDENAS, María Elvira et al. Difficulties and vulnerabilities for migrant children in Chile during the COVID-19 pandemic. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2023, vol.21, n.3, pp.148-168. Epub 01-Dez-2023. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.21.3.5902.
After identifying the need to listen to migrant children regarding the vulnerability they and their families faced during the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile, we sought to examine the difficulties and vulnerabilities faced by their families from their point of view. Semistructured interviews with thematic scripts and graphic support were conducted with 37 children whose families had migrated from other countries in Latin America. Content analysis was carried out using the data collected during these interviews. According to these children, it was evident that migrant families faced a number of difficulties and vulnerabilities during the pandemic that included: physical distance between family members; economic vulnerabilities; lack of family support networks; and difficulties with accessing work. These vulnerabilities were evidenced using both objective and subjective points of view.
