VOLTARELLI, Monique Aparecida; PAVEZ SOTO, Iskra  y  DERBY, Joanna. Childhood migration and pandemic: the Latin American crisis. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2020, vol.26, e36298.  Epub 28-Abr-2021. ISSN 1981-0431.  https://doi.org/10.26512/lc.v26.2020.36298.

The article reflects upon the COVID19 pandemic’s impact on Latin American migrant children, through a Sociology of Childhood Perspective and in the global context of crisis. Drawing on a documentary analysis, the results showed that confinement has negatively affected children's mental health, although they can also become infected with the virus; it is noted that most countries have implemented distance education programs, but excluded families do not have material conditions (such as access to the internet and computers), heightening social inequalities. It is concluded that the pandemic has changed the lives of migrant children and further scientific studies and public policies are recommended.

Palabras clave : Migration; Sociology of childhood; Times of crisis; Pandemic.
