Alexandre dos Santos, a researcher at the Global South Mediation Unit (GSUM) of the BRICS Policy Center/PUC-Rio, participated in the Mundioka podcast, from the Sputnik Brasil newspaper, in a discussion about the migration crisis in South Africa, marked by protests against immigrants and the increase in xenophobic tensions in the country.

Throughout the episode, the challenges related to immigration in South Africa were debated, including the social and political disputes surrounding the presence of foreigners, as well as the impacts of this scenario on the country’s internal stability and on the regional dynamics of the African continent. The discussion also took place within the broader context of the challenges faced by societies in the Global South in the face of socioeconomic inequalities and tensions related to human mobility.
