dc.description.abstract | The intensification of migratory movements towards the European context from the global South is a clear sign of the unstoppable prospect of international mobility, legal and illegal, of populations as a result of changed geopolitical conditions, environmental crises and disasters, poverty and economic uncertainty (Blasco, et al., 2023). These dynamics produce reverberations in terms of demographic transition, imbalance in local economies towards parallel and opaque labour circuits, and spatial transformations in the territories where refugees reside and transit. The contribution intends to focus on the informal settlement of Borgo Mezzanone, where about 4,000 migrants reside on a temporary and permanent basis, engaged in the activity of harvesting agricultural products according to the cyclical nature of the agri-food chain. The contribution is the result of the action-research work carried out by the ArCoD Department of the Polytechnic of Bari for the technical-scientific support of the Apulian Municiities beneficiaries of Measure 5C2 investment 2.2 Integrated Urban Plans for the overcoming of illegal settlements to combat the exploitation of workers in agriculture. Keywords: informality, migration, housing policy | |
