Abstract

The forced migrations are managed as an emergency rather than as a reality to be faced with appropriate policy. It is necessary to plan actions for the welfare of the person and for the realization of social citizenship and the health right. Intercultural counseling supports the migrant in the process of inclusion, identity reconstruction and new relational networks. The counseling with a transcultural approach, affects on the definition of health status; it enhances coping, empowerment and resilience and enables resources and alternative methods of adaptation. Therefore it becomes possible to involve migrants and territorial realities overcoming prejudices and fear of differences.
