Beyond the different posts that you have surely read here where I defend the professionalization of the figure of the Intercultural mediator, today I wanted to bring you a different text, and more focused on a series of new terms that are making their way in the ever-changing terrain such as that of migration.
Therefore, in this post I want to bring those words or expressions closer to you, so that we can continue speaking properly, within this complex theme. Today I bring you five of them, you will see:
- Mixed movements or mixed flows: Expressions used to refer to groups of people who travel together and that include both refugees and migrants. It is important to recognize that all of these people have human rights that must be protected, and that refugees and asylum seekers also have specific needs and rights protected by international law.
- Forced migration: Although not a legal concept, this term is increasingly used to refer to people displaced by environmental disasters, conflict, famine or large-scale development projects. However, UNHCR avoids using it so as not to detract from the specific needs of refugees and the legal protections that apply to them.
- Circular migration: Circular migration refers to a type of migratory mobility that involves recurrent movements between the country of origin and the country of destination, generally for work purposes. This type of migration It is characterized by being temporary, renewable, legal and respectful with the rights of migrants. Circular migration can include short-term movements, such as work trips, and also longer movements that can cover a good part of the migrants' life cycle. This migration also has a fundamental aspect, migrants do not have to risk their lives to emigrate.
- Reemigration: This term comes to us directly from Germany where it has been used for a long time.
Reemigration is a term that refers to return of a person to their country of origin after having previously emigrated to another country. In this context, reemigration implies the return of the individual (voluntarily or not) to their place of origin after having lived abroad for a period of time. This process may be motivated by various reasons, such as changes in personal, work, family or economic circumstances.
- And finally the scammer syndrome: It is a syndrome called inaction in the face of the great challenges of social cohesion posed by irregular migration in our country. This syndrome refers to a paralyzed political position, who is not capable of acting, and simply lets himself go, thus allowing it to fester and raise identity and social cohesion problems.
There you have it, new terms to use better and to speak appropriately within the field of mediation related to diversity management.
