Challenges of migration

Cards (5)

  • Poorly paid migrants can end up in the Favelas of Brazils cities
  • Internal migration of young and most educated to cities creates a poor, ageing population in rural Brazil
  • African migrants suffer disproportionality = paid 50% less than native Brazilians + poor housing (many live in overcrowded favelas run by gangs)
  • Haitians experience the same inequalities as Africans; poor wages, long hours, limits to services, racial discrimination - many Haitians have moved to chile
  • Haitians in Chile - 1992 = 50, 2020 = 182,700
