Death on the Move

This volume explores the different aspects of the management of death, dying and mortality by migrants in Southern Europe, through deconstructing persistent idiosyncratic beliefs, myths, narratives, silences, and constraints. It focuses on migrants from diverse geographical and cultural backgrounds in Portugal, Spain and Italy. It also includes reflections on Madagascar, Guinea-Bissau, East-Timor and Cuba. The thirteen chapters provide insights into epistemological issues, the trans-national circulation of bodies, spirits and rituals, migration, the placing of the dead and diverse funerary practices and perspectives. Privileging a multi-sited approach to death and migrations, this book draws on oral, archival and published sources to give visibility to populations that often live in liminal structural positions and transient worlds. By exploring the multifaceted dimensions of death and suffering among immigrant populations, it refocuses the debate on migration in Europe and beyond by highlighting under-researched issues such as end-of-life care, mental health, death, burial, cremation, funerary ceremonies and symbols, repatriation and martyrdom.

Para esse efeito, este projeto contemplou a identificação de indicadores para a monitorização da SSR em Portugal e a divulgação de recomendações e boas práticas em SSR junto de populações imigrantes, tendo em vista a capacitação dos profissionais de saúde para que as possam integrar na sua atividade clínica diária. O ProCima visou promover a discussão dos desafios, oportunidades e potencialidades subjacentes às questões de SSR em populações imigrantes, através de uma abordagem holística e interseccional dessa mesma SSR, sem distinção da nacionalidade, etnia, situação documental, sexo, género, orientação sexual, idade ou condição económica e de uma metodologia participativa geradora de consenso.
