Resumo(s)
Care and support are central determinants of social work. However, the needs and specificities for an integral perception of this assistance need to be drawn in the context of a globalizing society and increasingly evident macro and micro contextual phenomena. By taking care of aging people in the context of Portuguese transnational families as an example, this paper aims to be a space of dialogue between challenges and possible answers in an attempt to reflect on the main issues of care in transnational families. The main results/reflections emphasize the need to broaden educational training to recognize care as inherently interdisciplinary and rooted in cross-cultural knowledge. Digital communication technologies play a crucial role in enabling care that transcends geographical boundaries, improving both the quality of interactions with care-related elements and social responses.
