Two invisible populations – social and political challenges

This project analyses the situation of female undocumented migrants working in elderly care in Brussels.

The research explores the services available to families for elderly care in Brussels, with particular emphasis on the informal work carried out by migrant women in this area. More specifically, the research focuses on two populations that are both invisible and vulnerable: dependent elderly people, and female undocumented migrants working informally.


End of the project : October 2020
