> We are used to studying international migrants mainly as the male breadwinner and, in general, as labor migrants who typically move from the Global South to the Global North to improve their material conditions. Migrant’s children and youth who crossed borders with or without their parents are often overlooked. Socializing in the North seems to structure a different profile of the traditional migrant population. The young migrants who were taken as children to the Global North, who grew up and socialized in those countries, and who are either stuck in ‘hostile’ host societies or returning to places of origin such as Mexico, Turkey, Maghreb, etc. representing, some sort of migration from the North to the South, from countries where they culturally belong, to countries they have ties through citizenship or networks.

> hese young people often face the challenge of building (and rebuilding) their lives in social environments that can be alien and hostile to them socially, culturally and economically. It is true that they have an urgency to generate conditions of material reproduction once back in their formal countries of origin, but they also need to rebuild connections with people, families, culture, communities, and governments. These are young people often characterized with multiple belongings and composite identities that have a -not always recognized- very important personal, social, cultural, and human capital.
