Abstract
In recent times, the migratory phenomenon has intensified constantly and frequently throughout Europe. The complex issue of immigration is now at the center of every political, cultural and economic debate and affects a large number of people, migrants, unaccompanied minors who flee their country of origin with the hope of finding better living conditions. The migratory crisis has characterized our country for some time. A fundamental element in support of the migratory population is Cultural Pluralism aimed at meeting different cultures, starting precisely from the integration and inclusion of the same in the host country, enhancing their differences, i.e. investing in cultural diversity as an essential dimension of dialogue. intercultural. The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic intended as a global threat is intertwined with migratory processes. The analysis that develops between Pandemic and Migration shows that migrants are the most affected and most exposed, considered as the weakest segment of the world population and, therefore, the most vulnerable to the risk of exclusion and discrimination. What emerged during the lockdown is that Covid-19 has played and still is playing a central role in terms of inequalities and disparities in migrant status. The negative effects concern socio-economic and intercultural aspects, the most relevant consequences in economic terms concern the poverty of migrant workers, health conditions as they are the most exposed to the virus, fear and fear of asylum seekers and refugees , the mistrust even towards the most fragile foreign child and the wave of hostility and xenophobic behaviors in particular towards the Chinese and Asian population considered as "spreaders" of the Coronavirus, in addition to the global emergency of the so-called "environmental migrants". The effects of the pandemic also concern the crisis in the protection of human rights due to restrictions, the policy of closed ports and rejections, an indifferent attitude towards people in situations of grave danger and who lose their lives in sea. Therefore, the importance of a strategic and inclusive vision of foreign citizens in the country that welcomes them is highlighted and to ensure social integration as a duty of hospitality and welcome for the migrant person and, above all, to guarantee their fundamental rightsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
