Abstract

The impact of migration in the hosting countries continues to perpetrate original differences in social groups. On the one hand, migrants' conditions in the hosting countries improve thanks to better working conditions; on the other hand, falling into an irregular status can deteriorate Health and Life quality. For instance, socio-economic conditions and the legal status of migrants, which often are not well consolidated, affect the Health of Migrants, especially those who are irregular. During the first year of the project of mobility, Migrants experienced precarious conditions due to the policy that each country grants to migrants. A general system that generates vulnerability for migrants that has already dealt with many other obstacles, such as cultural and linguistic barriers and separation from the original country. That obstacle may influence Health due to limited access in Public Healthcare. In this article, we are also investing health in CPR. This research aims to identify migrants' healthcare access through politics and policies by considering the current global challenges in Italy. This article focuses on migrants, starting from the idea of Wasteocene. This article points out how injustice and social differences continue to be perpetrated in Italian society. In conclusion, we suggest some recommendations for policymakers to implement a new idea of a Democratic society.
