A Orientação Sexual E O Enfrentamento Do Preconceito
Introdução: A orientação sexual na terceira idade ainda é um tema envolto em preconceitos e tabus sociais, especialmente no contexto do cuidado em saúde. O envelhecimento populacional no Brasil tem evidenciado a necessidade de uma assistência mais inclusiva e humanizada, que reconheça as diversidades sexuais entre idosos e promova o respeito à dignidade e à individualidade desses sujeitos. No entanto, muitos profissionais da saúde, inclusive da e…
Regimes of social minima in Europe
Living wages in Portugal
Living wage (LW) is a concept that goes beyond that of national minimum wage (NMW), since it implies income adequacy to the wage earners and to his/her family members. It is coherent with the principle related to wages of the European Pillar of Social Rights (EPSR) namely the right of workers to fair wages, and the duty to ensure adequate minimum wages providing the satisfaction of the worker needs and of his/her family, which originated a propos…
Uma década de políticas sociais de velhice em Portugal
A dignidade fundamenta uma conceção dualista de direitos constitucionais, direitos de liberdade, tributários de uma dignidade pessoal e direitos sociais, subsidiários de uma dignidade social (Neto, 2014), cuja garantia é da responsabilidade do Estado.

Social resilience and welfare systems under Covid-19
COVID-19 and the corresponding economic lockdown and income loss for large segments of population was something unexpected for all European countries, and their welfare systems were not prepared to protect their citizens from such threats. Social resilience is becoming used in disaster risk analysis, and preferred to that of vulnerability, to refer the ability of the social entities to respond to such challenges, enabling them to cope and adjust …
The Minimum Income Standard and equivalisation
Equivalence scales, used to compare incomes across household types, strongly influence which households have low reported income, affecting public policy priorities. Yet they draw on abstract, often dated evidence and arbitrary judgements, and on comparisons across the income distribution rather than focusing on minimum requirements. Budget standards provide more tangible comparisons of the minimum required by different household types. The Minim…
The guaranteed minimum income in Portugal
The Guaranteed Minimum Income (GMI) was created in Portugal by a centre‐left Socialist Party government in 1996, as the most important constitutive part of a ‘new generation of active social policies,’ which completed the existence in Portugal of a universal system of guaranteed income. Its transformation into a Social Integration Income (SII) in 2003 and its retrenchment in the period of the Great Recession and troika austerity (2011–2015) has r…
