Abstract

The COVID-PAI-TS project, coordinated by Kheira Belhadj-Ziane (EA 3478 - Laboratoire Lorrain de Sciences Sociales (2L2S) - University of Lorraine), proposes to develop a practice guide, in support of social work professionals, to intervene adequately with elderly immigrants in the context of a pandemic. They are more likely to be contaminated with Covid-19 because they more often live in high-density municipalities and in overcrowded or cramped housing. The project will be deployed in six French regions, which will help contextualize the research results at the local level.
