Although the study of migration has shifted its focus from an individual perspective (on those who emigrate) to also include their integration networks in the country of destination, it is also necessary to consider the dynamics with their family in the country of origin. With an integral focus on the analysis of Portuguese transnational families, this paper aims to reflect on how the connection between those who emigrate and those who stay can promote greater resilience, presenting best practices for intervention among these dynamics and generations. Using a post-positivist paradigm and semi-structured interviews, we developed a qualitative approach with three exploratory studies: 1) Portuguese young adults living abroad (N=22); 2) parental figures living in Portugal with adult children living abroad (N= 20) and 3) experts in the fields of academic and psychosocial work with similar persons (N= 8). The data was analyzed using N-Vivo software. The general results lead us to reflect on the dynamics of relationships, where digital and face-to-face spaces participate simultaneously, even though there are different challenges and ways of using digital means. We also found a change in expectations regarding the norms and values perceived by the generation of emigrants, which leads us to consider the importance of intercultural values since transnational families greatly increase transculturality, which can promote resilience among the group. The data also alerts us to the need to train intervention professionals in multidisciplinary areas, always taking the cultural context into account.
