Resumo
In recent years there has been an intensification of forced migration flows marked by
prolonged displacement and persistent challenges. Faced with this scenario, it is
essential to reflect on strategies that guarantee protection and support for people in
situations of refuge. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)
proposes three durable solutions: voluntary repatriation, resettlement and local
integration. In this research, the focus is on analysing the process of integration of
forced migrants in the host country, considering the difficulties and limitations of current
practices. To this end, I have adopted the perspective of critical/decolonial
interculturality, which prioritises horizontal relationships and the recognition of voices
that are often silenced. The central aim is to rethink the concept of integration in the
light of this theoretical approach and the narratives of Venezuelan forced migrants
living in the metropolitan region of Goiânia, as well as professionals working in this
area. The research, which is qualitative and interdisciplinary, combines a
bibliographical and documentary review with the analysis of semi-structured
interviews. To process the data, I used thematic content analysis, creating categories
based on the interviewees' statements, which were then organised into four axes: a)
Perspectives on arriving in Brazil and the challenges of adaptation; b) Support
Networks; c) Barriers and Difficulties; and d) Different Perceptions of Integration. The
results indicate that the current model of integration is close to the notion of functional
interculturality, characterised by superficial actions that create an apparent inclusion
without breaking with the colonial, neoliberal and Western structures that shape
migration policies. In contrast, integration from the perspective of critical interculturality
is not limited to immediate responses; it requires recognising migrants as active
subjects, guaranteeing not only their legal and economic integration, but also their full
development within the host community. Integration must go beyond individual
adaptation and promote a joint transformation of the shared reality.
