Acolhimento aos refugiados no Brasil durante o período pandêmico no ano de 2020.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze how refugees were welcomed in Brazil during the pandemic period, in 2020. The sanitary crisis caused by the SARSCoV2 virus affected the world scenario in 2020. Brazil is inserted in this pandemic context and was also severely affected by the impacts of Covid19. Thus, to contain the virus, sanitary barriers were imposed, affecting the national migration policy, including the reception of refugees. A crisis cannot serve as a subterfuge for violations of rights, being essential that humanitarian assistance be granted even in a period of pandemic. To reach the scope of the research, the hypotheticaldeductive research method was used, with a bibliographicdocumental procedure, in a descriptive research with a qualitative approach. That said, this study concluded that imposed sanitary restrictions caused a decrease in asylum requests, in the year 2020, in addition to the inefficiency of specific Brazilian public policies for the reception of refugees during the Covid19 pandemic, based on the year of 2020.
