The school careers of immigrant's children in France: success and disillusions
2006
06056; This paper will describe the school careers of immigrant children and analyze the patterns of educational inequality in France. It will provide an analysis of immigrant's educational expectations viewed in relation with their children's school careers, taking into account the impact of social, ethnic and geographical origin. In this perspective, we use a rich longitudinal dataset (Ministry of Education 1995 Panel). We point out higher educational expectations among immigrant parents, as compared with native parents of similar social background. High expectations and consistent efforts turn out to be important elements of educational achievement. However some discrepancy appears betwe…

Imported and Indigenous cases of Invasive Meningocococcal Disease W:P1.5,2:F1-1: ST-11 in migrants' reception centers. Italy, June-November 2014.
2015
We report about three unliked cases of meningococcal meningitis caused by the ST-11/ET-37 strain of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup W. Two of the three cases, detected in Sicily on June and July 2014, were migrants from Mali and Eritrea. The third case was a fatal meningitis occurred on November 2014 in a 37 years old man, working in an immigrant center in Calabria. This report suggests that tetravalent conjugate vaccines (ACYW) should be actively offered to the staff of migrants’ reception centers.
COVID-19 Vaccination in Migrants and Refugees: Lessons Learnt and Good Practices.
2022
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated inequalities between low- and high-income countries. Within the latter, a greater impact is seen in the poorest and most vulnerable people, including refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants. They all may experience poor access to quality healthcare or have suboptimal health-seeking behavior, distrust of governments, or fear of detention and deportation if seeking healthcare. Some refugees and migrants may face multiple barriers to vaccination and access to health systems that are relevant to the administration of COVID-19 vaccines, despite the growing inclusion of these populations in public health policies. Several good practices have emerged to ensure …
A computer‐based Pinyin intervention for disadvantaged children in China : Effects on Pinyin skills, phonological awareness, and character reading
2020
Pinyin is an alphabetic script that denotes pronunciations of Chinese characters. Studies have shown that Pinyin instruction enhances both phonological awareness (e.g., Shu et al., Developmental Science, 2008, 11, 171–181) and character reading (e.g., Lin et al., Psychological Science, 2010, 21, 1117–1122) in Chinese children. In the present study, we provided a 3‐week Pinyin intervention with a computer‐based Pinyin GraphoGame to disadvantaged migrant children with poor Pinyin skills. A total of 252 first graders who were children of migrant workers in a large Chinese city were assessed to identify poor Pinyin readers. Fifty‐six 7‐year‐old children with poor Pinyin skills were selected and…

Eiropas migrantu krīzes ietekme uz radikāli labēju-populistisku partiju popularitātes vairošanos: Vācijas, Apvienotās Karalistes un Latvijas gadījuma…
2017
Maģistra darba mērķis ir noskaidrot, vai Vācijas, Apvienotās Karalistes un Latvijas radikāli labējām partijām sniegtais atbalsts ir palielinājies neatkarīgi no tā, cik smagi katru valsti ir skārusi Eiropas migrantu krīze. Darba teorētiskā daļa apraksta radikāli labējo-populistisko partiju saimi, kā arī definē galvenās radikāli labējo-populistisko partiju iezīmes un to nostāju pret imigrāciju. Empīriskā daļa ietver imigrācijas rādītāju, sabiedrības uzskatu par imigrāciju, partiju piekoptā diskursa, kā arī partijām sniegtā atbalsta analīzi. Darba ietvaros tiek secināts, ka visu trīs valstu galēji labējās partijas savā darbībā ir aktualizējušas Eiropas migrantu krīzes tematiku, taču tām sniegt…
Les scolarités des enfants d'immigrés de la sixième au baccalauréat : différenciation et polarisation des parcours
2009
09024; Texte soumis à publication dans une revue à comité de lecture; Cet article revisite le débat sur la réussite scolaire des enfants d'immigrés en France, à partir du panel d'élèves entrés en 6ème en 1995 et suivis pendant dix ans. L'analyse complète des scolarités dans le secondaire, à travers les performances à l'entrée et à la fin du collège, les orientations au lycée puis les diplômes obtenus, fournit une image contrastée de ces parcours. Les élèves issus de l'immigration ont un niveau bien plus faible que les français d'origine à l'entrée en 6ème. Une grande partie des inégalités se joue dès le primaire, mais elles ne se creusent pas au collège. Les enfants de la seconde génération…
El consumo de drogas en los adolescentes inmigrantes: implicaciones para la prevención
2009
El fuerte crecimiento de la inmigración está cambiando la confi guración de la sociedad española en un modo muy notable. El número de alumnos extranjeros en los centros educativos ha ido aumentando de forma continuada en la última década. Esa nueva realidad determina que toda una serie de conocimientos, relativamente bien establecidos sobre el consumo de drogas de los adolescentes, deban ser revisados para establecer pautas adecuadas para el desarrollo de programas de prevención adaptados a esta nueva realidad. En este trabajo, utilizando una muestra de 2.260 estudiantes de 1er y 2º ciclo de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (E.S.O.), se analizan los patrones de consumo de los adolescentes i…
