Abstract

The Venezuelan migratory phenomenon has been one of the most relevant in recent years, resulting in different psychosocial effects, being that despite the impact it has had on Ecuadorian sociocultural dynamics, its research approaches are scarce. Therefore, and from its direct participants; the exercise of entering a different country and context, in search of better economic conditions and stability, refers to understanding how they manage to cope with this change, what are the risk factors they face and what protective factors they are capable of acquire or possess for that purpose. This relationship of risk factors to protective factors is not a correspondence relationship, but it has allowed us to inquire about the resilience that migrants currently have since semi-structured interviews and a scale to measure resilience, specifying their understanding both in their previous stages as in the present (adults 18 - 28 years old), focusing more on their tools, relationships, resilient mentors, conflicts, employment status, studies completed or studied, religiosity, among the main ones. Allowing this research to understand the resilience and the Venezuelan migratory phenomenon of the people who rely on the work carried out by the Jesuit Refugee Service. Noting that for the most part, they are people of limited economic resources, coming from conflicting families, of a social dynamic (economic and cultural) in crisis, and facing a country where they have entered lacks of documentation and that they are presented as hostile.
