Women and children in migration. The dimension of rights

The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief analysis of some consequences of migrations in western societies. The international migration processes that involve Europe can no longer be considered a temporary emergency. Within this framework, the paper reflects on trafficking and exploitation as the worst forms of fundamental rights denial. Pedagogy and educational sciences must identify their own roles in dealing with problems that derive from these scenarios and must share a real commitment at the level of intervention planning and, more generally, of good practices.
