O presente texto discute o fenómeno da migração em Portugal, país atualmente eleito por brasileiras/os como
residência por motivações diversas, com destaque na progressão numérica de mulheres desta nacionalidade.
Parte-se da premissa de que o processo de integração num novo território depende de numerosas condições e superação de desafios que, possivelmente, se elevam para as mulheres e que as podem expor a situações
violentas e difíceis. Pesquisas revelam que a violência contra as mulheres é recorrente em todo o mundo e em
diferentes espaços da vida social, com perdas e danos para as mulheres, famílias e sociedade, dadas as suas
vulnerabilidades sociais, económicas e culturais. Subsidiada por revisão bibliográfica e documental, esta reflexão procurou apreender se o fenómeno da migração, na sua relação com o género, concorre para a violência de género que atinge brasileiras nesta condição em Portugal. Conclui-se que a condição de imigrante não pode ser, por si só, responsabilizada por situações de violações aos direitos humanos e exclusão social. Contudo, essa condição, em circunstâncias nas quais se inclui o recorte género, geração, etnia, classe orientação sexual, pode contribuir para a violência de género, que faz das mulheres vítimas frequentes, motivo pelo qual urge fortalecer e ampliar as políticas públicas e a luta em prol do reconhecimento destas mulheres como sujeitos de direitos e na perspetiva de construção de uma sociedade mais justa e equitativa entre os seres humanos.
The present text discusses the phenomenon of migration in Portugal, a country currently chosen by Brazilians as a residence for various motivations, with emphasis on the numerical progression of women of this nationality. It starts from the premise that the process of integration into a new territory depends on numerous conditions and the overcoming of challenges that possibly arise for women and can expose them to violent and difficult situations. Research reveals that violence against women is recurring across the world and in different spaces of social life, with losses and damages for women, families and society, given their social, economic and cultural vulnerabilities. Supported by bibliographical and documentary revision, the reflection sought to understand if the phenomenon of migration, in its relation with the gender, contributes to the gender violence that reaches Brazilians in this condition in Portugal. It is concluded that the status of immigrant can not be held accountable for situations of human rights violations and social exclusion. However, this condition, in circumstances in which gender, generation, ethnicity, and sexual orientation may be included, may contribute to gender-based violence that makes women frequent victims. This is why it is necessary to strengthen and expand public policies and the struggle for recognition as subjects of rights and in the perspective of building a more just and equitable society among human beings.
