"description": "In a world of rapidly growing superdiversity, migration itself is also changing. In addition to classic migration - from one country of\norigin to one country of destination - new and more complex migration patterns are developing. Transmigration - or multiple\nmigration - implies that people now arrive after stays in several countries en route, and may later move on again. In the big cities,\nbut also in smaller towns, we are seeing increasingly large groups of these transmigrants, often in vulnerable social situations. The\ntemporary nature impacts upon their everyday lives and welfare needs.\n\nTransmigration looks at the experience of transmigrants in Belgium and examines the challenges for social work organizations and\nlocal authorities. Transmigrants are not always an easy group to deal with. They are newcomers who do not yet know how to\nnavigate their way around the social field. Their expectations are coloured by experiences in other countries. Language barriers,\nuncertainty and the transitory nature of their stay make their relationship with social services that much more difficult.\nTransmigrants live in family and social networks that transcend national borders. Can care providers make better use of these networks?",
