Jóvenes migrantes al habla: Trayectorias educativas y vidas con género

The article shows the biographical tension and the educational process of two minors who traveled from Africa to Europe through biographical constructions marked by the passage from the society of origin to the destination society. The story and the graphic representation of the lived trajectory provide elements of reflection on the channeling of newly arrived migrant students in our society. Both biographies are extracted from an investigation that aims to know about the successful educational progression of the newly arrived migrant students who live in vulnerable contexts.
Through trajectories channeled by gender and a middle social class in origins, Badra and Dakar relate their traveling and their feeling in the destination society. A new context that pushes both to a relocation in terms of class and, for Badra, also in terms of gender.
