Social adaptation to the educational community of Venezuelan children in situations of human mobility

Abstract

This article aims to investigate the relationship of family dynamics with the resolution of mourning in the processes of migration or human mobility, and how these aspects are related to the social adaptation of boys and girls to the educational system of the destination country. The research has a qualitative, descriptive approach, in which three Venezuelan children participated, who were referred by their schools to psychological centers, for presenting difficulties in the relationships they establish with their peers and teachers. After applying the qualitative instruments (semi-structured interviews and application of the genogram), results were obtained related to the experiences of the human mobility process, its family dynamics, social adaptation, school inclusion in the destination country and participation of the family nucleus in the new context. These results contributed to highlight the importance of working with families in the processes of preparing grief and generating specific programs for the educational system in order to implement actions that make it a favorable environment, which guarantees access to education and enables the inclusion and social adaptation of girls and boys in situations of human mobility, in safe and friendly environments.
