Conceived in 2016 as the Study Group on Migration and International Labor Law, the Research Group on Migration and International Labor Law (GEMDIT) of the Faculty of Law of the University of Sao Paulo (FD-USP) is regularly registered in the Research Commission of the FD-USP<\/strong> (http:\/\/www.direito.usp.br\/pesquisa\/grupos_pesquisa_01.php<\/span><\/span><\/a>) and in the Directory of Research Groups in Brazil (DGP) of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq)<\/strong> (http:\/\/dgp.cnpq.br\/dgp\/espelhogrupo\/4213229401105309<\/span><\/span><\/a>). The Group has the general objective of promoting interdisciplinary reflections and debates. Through Cultural and Outreach Activities, we deal, for example, with a very heterogeneous and sensitive thematic region: vulnerable social groups in an international work environment, with special attention to the conditions of immigrants – documented or not – and their impacts on the recipient countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

The functioning of the Culture and Outreach Activities offered by GEMDIT is based on bibliographic, empirical, and comparative research, as well as periodic meetings focused on useful works for the society. The elaboration of informative materials and the advice to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) – and other associations – that are dedicated to vulnerable groups of immigrants are examples. The partnerships we form may take place with a specific project or involve other initiatives already established at USP.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the GEMDIT Activities resulted in the Primer on Labor and Social Security Rights for Immigrants and Refugees (available on this website)<\/strong>. To prepare this primer, we had contact with documents from several bodies, such as: (i) at the international level, from the International Labor Organization (ILO); (ii) at the regional level, from the Inter-American and European Courts of Human Rights; and (iii) at the national level, from the National Committee for Refugees (CONARE). Besides, the Group Coordination invited specialists on the migration issue to take part in meetings and to give lectures.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
