This study aimed to investigate the impact of these policies on the health and well-being of international students enrolled in graduate progr…

Oil giant, climate saviour, or somewhere in between Human rights and the Norwegian climate paradox
Norway's recent decision to expand oil and gas exploration further North into the Barents Sea is contrasted with its active leadership role in global climate policymaking. We argue that this contradiction is a result of the key role petro-capitalism still plays in Norway, in addition to the country's geopolitical aspirations in the Arctic. However, solely legalistic approaches to human rights and sustainability often miss out on the dynamics of p…
Latin American perspectives on Indigenous social work
Despite sharing different cultures, customs, and pasts, Indigenous peoples in Latin America often face similar problems such as eviction from their ancestral lands, persecution, cultural genocide, and loss of their livelihoods. Yet, their knowledges and socio-cultural practices persist and have a lot to contribute to social work theory and practice despite being largely overlooked in Eurocentric and western social work curricula and formal educat…

Among other topics, this note discusses the role of social workers in educational environments in Brazil and identifies the barriers that ma…

Considering this context, this research intends to shine a light on the experience of Brazil regarding data privacy protection, through the analysis of a brand new bill passe…
“A Cidadania Canadense é um Privilégio e Não um Direito”
A construção histórica e falaciosa do Canadá em torno do mito da “Terra Prometida” leva não só a um entendimento equivocado da maneira como o Governo canadense gerencia suas políticas migratórias, mas obscurece uma outra face não tão solidária dessas políticas e o consequente impacto que elas causam na vida dos migrantes, principalmente daqueles indocumentados. Portanto, este trabalho objetiva descrever, em linhas gerais, as características da im…

The Role of Rights-Based Social Work in Contemporary Latin American Diasporas
O Serviço Social Embasado em Direitos como Ferramenta para a Realização dos Direitos Humanos das Crianças Migrantes Venezuelanas nos Países da América Latina
Se os fluxos migratórios contemporâneos no Sul Global são frequentemente negligenciados, os desafios decorrentes da migração infantil constituem um "gueto dentro de outro gueto" nos estudos da migração transnacional no Sul, embora o cenário de crescente migração internacional na América Latina tenha testemunhado uma virada desde a eclosão da crise venezuelana em 2013. A estimativa é de que cerca de 2,3 milhões de pessoas tenham deixado o país des…
