Migration narratives in the first person: life stories of Brazilian immigrants in Portugal

Considering the increasing number of Brazilians migrating to Portugal in the last years, we conducted Life Stories interviews with 25 Brazilians who migrated to the North of Portugal from 2015 onwards, analysing their perceptions about their migration experience. The findings were analysed in the light of Cultural Studies and Social Psychology theories, uncovering texts and contexts about the case of Brazilian migration to Portugal.The development of this work received the support of Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, I.P., by the means of a doctoral grant with the reference SFRH/BD/137855/208, within the scope of the Human Capital Operational Program (POCH).
