Abstract
In 2017, specialists in several fields (health, education, and social

work) from five European countries (France, Georgia, Italy, Norway, and Switzerland) established a network to jointly pursue

studies on migration and disability. An initial workshop provided

an opportunity to discuss their previous individual work and to

develop a comparative research project. This article presents the

key aspects of the discussion and the resulting plans for collaborative study. First, migrant children with disabilities remain

statistically invisible in some countries. Separate policies and systems address their needs as migrants and their needs as persons

with disabilities. Second, in all countries covered by the research

network, there is an important gap between legal norms and the

circumstances of migrantfamilies raising children with disabilities.

The same holds true for collaboration between public agencies, or

between those agencies and NGOs (serving persons with disabilities,migrants, and/ornationalminorities). Further comparative and

cross-disciplinary study must focus on increasing the social participation of children with disabilities and their families through

social, educational, and health interventions within an intercultural

context.
 
En 2017, des spécialistes de différentes disciplines (santé, éducation et travail social) issus de cinq pays européens (France, Géorgie,

Italie, Norvège et Suisse) ont créé un réseau afin de poursuivre leurs

recherches sur le handicap etla migration. Le présent article expose

les principaux résultats d’un premier workshop qu’ils ont réalisé

et les pistes qui en découlent pour de futures recherches. D’une

part, les enfants migrants en situation de handicap restent invisibles sur le plan statistique dans plusieurs pays. Leurs besoins en

tant que migrants et personnes en situation de handicap sont pris

en compte par des politiques et des dispositifs distincts. D’autre

part, dans les cinq pays, un écartimportant entre les normes légales

et la situation des familles migrantes ayant un enfant en situation

de handicap est constaté. Il en est de même en ce qui concerne la

collaboration entre les différents services publics, ou entre ces services et les associations soutenant les personnes en situation de

handicap, les personnes migrantes et/ou les minorités. Les futures

recherches seront centrées sur les moyens d’augmenter la participation sociale des enfants migrants en situation de handicap et de

leurs familles dans des contextes d’interventions interculturelles et

interdisciplinaires.
