East, west, is home the best? Eastern European immigrant women in northern Italy in the care sector: the impact of origins on the right to work

Despite international frameworks, Italian women continue to face challenges related to the fundamental right to work: this issue becomes even more complex for immigrant women. In the care and healthcare sectors of northern Italy, women of Eastern European origins experience a connection between gender, immigration background, and labour rights. How is their right to work impacted? Previous research and interviews with key figures can help us answer this question.
