Resumo

Given the different migratory flows, studies point to the need to research the living conditions of immigrant children and youths and the procedures used by educational systems to integrate/include them. These proposals highlight the urgency of asking new questions around the approaches and strategies that policies and schools suggest to deal with issues related to the education of students with immigrant backgrounds in order to detect and meet their needs, bring out the tensions and suggest alternatives. Bearing this need in mind, this text introduces the logic guiding a monograph which contains 10 articles from the perspectives of researchers from seven countries which focus on meta-analyses of the studies conducted, the vision of the young migrants, the relationship between educational policies and practices and the evaluation of the educational experiences. These contributions are a chance to situate ourselves, open up new problems, pose challenges and contribute not only to revealing situations but also to changing educational systems’ policies and modes of interaction with immigrants.
