About one million of women has migrated towards Italy alone as a way to provide to their families, especially children, who usually are left behind. The experience of these workers as ‘long distance mothers’ appears important to be studied from a pedagogical perspective, considering the intersecting vulnerabilities of being women, migrant and also workers in a poorly protected and underestimated working sector. This article aims to present the results of a multiple case study carried out on three different Italian projects aiming to support long distance parenting for post-socialist families. The paper finally suggests some empirically based guidelines aiming to promote the support for transnational families.</p> ER -
