Resilience among Unaccompanied Foreign Minors
This paper deals with resilience in unaccompanied foreign minors (referred to as MENA in Spanish) who are in Melilla, either in reception centres or in a “street situation”. The presence of these young people in Melilla has been increasing significantly since 2014, becoming a major problem for a city of only 12.3 km2, a population of approximately 87,000 inhabitants and bordering Morocco, the country from which most of them come. The aim of this …

Around these young people, mai…

Pre- and in-service education professionals facing religious diversity and interreligious dialogue in Catalonia
