Abstract
The present contribution is an excerpt of the ongoing research on Sub-Saharan migrations to Italy in a gender-aware perspective. Its contents partly rest upon findings emerged from the European LeFamSol Project (2014-15), hence references to the situation in Greece and Turkey as the Project partnership involved these two countries along with Italy. The topic, thus defined, calls for an analysis of: recent migration flows originating from Sub-Saharan Africa (push/pull factors, migration projects, routes, etc.), with particular attention to their female segments; social and working conditions of Sub-Saharan migrants (esp. women) in their receiving societies, including mechanisms of inclusion-exclusion, legal status, healthcare (women's health), and employment opportunities.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
