SUMMARY:

This dissertation aims to understand the causes of forced migration to Brazil of people
with a high educational level, as well as the reasons and consequences of the low
effectiveness of the process of revalidation of foreign diplomas. As a methodology, we
used bibliographic analysis and document analysis, as well as semi-structured
interviews with forced migrants and refugees. We observed that people with a higher
educational level have greater social, cultural and financial capital, which helps in the
migration process, especially when there is a high degree of coercion to move. In the
context of restrictions on entry into Northern countries, in addition to situations of
human rights violations, environmental disasters and extreme poverty in nearby
countries, Brazil has become an option for this group as a destination. Regarding the
revalidation process, we found that the lack of uniformity and publicity in the
procedures, as well as the requirement for documents as opposed to carrying out exams,
lead to its low effectiveness. Therefore, skilled forced migrants find themselves
professionally underutilized, which hinders their local integration.
