The Beautiful Family Acts (BFA): a third order proposal applied through interventions with unaccompanied migrant minors in Catalonia (Spain)

Abstract

Third order thinking offers us the opportunity to broaden our epistemological framework and to delve beyond the boundaries of what have been considered clinical approaches to date. We discuss the importance of making an interdisciplinary effort to accompany migrant adolescents from more humanizing and less objectifying models within the care services where they usually stay after their arrival and for a long period of time. We offer theoretical- practical foundations, as well as insights and examples, which show the importance of broadening conceptual frameworks to integrate greater sensitivity in working with migrant adolescents in Catalonia.
