Understanding migratory grief through testimonies of young people who migrated unaccompanied in childhood Palma-García, María de las Olas Ruiz-Mosquera, Ana Cristina Estrada-Moreno, Irene Migración Menores de edad Trabajo social Disponible Online: 11 diciembre 2025 Migratory grief is a process that encompasses the emotional experiences of people who were once migrants. Research is focused on the complexity of the phenomenon while considering the different losses that can be suffered during the process. Research has been conducted on focal groups for an in-depth understanding of each person's experience as regards migratory grief by identifying common experiences and feelings and enabling a detailed examination of each narrative. The subjects shared life experiences that revealed how complex migratory grief can be, with emphasis on separation from families and the loss of their own culture. Emotional responses have revealed common coping strategies and individual variations. The outcomes bring to light the importance of addressing the emotional dimensions of migration. Valuable insights are offered to design psychosocial interventions in support of individuals experiencing migratory grief while acknowledging that their experiences are diverse. 2025-12-16T11:59:00Z 2025-12-16T11:59:00Z 2026 journal article García, María de las Olas Palma, Mosquera, A.
