Description
Summary:Migration is a social fact that consists of individuals entering and leaving a given geographic space. From 2010, Brazil became the destination of many Haitians in search of better living conditions, soon after the collapse of Haiti by the January 12, 2010 earthquake. Their presence in Brazilian territory generated the necessity of their insertion into the labor market and in higher education. In this perspective, this article has as main objective to retrace the Haitian migration, emphasizing the insertion and participation of Haitian immigrants in Brazilian universities, specifically in the Federal University Southern Border (UFFS), Chapecó campus, and the Federal University of Latin American Integration (UNILA).
