I would first like to thank my supervisor, Prof. Fátima Suleman. Thank you for your immediate availability and guidance through all this last year. The trust you put on my project and the knowledge and ideas that you shared with me mean a lot to me. A very special gratitude goes towards all the participants that willingly shared their perceptions and life experiences: to all the Companies’ Representatives, who took their time to help me; to all the Organizations’ Representatives, who so kindly shared their network with me; to the City Council Representative, who went beyond her functions and shared such important information to use in my research; and to the Employment Agent for Refugees, whose availability and quick response I really appreciated. Writing this thesis would have never been possible without the contribute of you all. My sincere thanks goes to the ones about who I wrote this thesis, the refugees. In particular, the ones who participated in this research and that, in such a generous way, shared their opinions and life experiences with me. Your contribute was not only academic, but also a life lesson, and for that I am always grateful. And finally, last but by no means least, thank you to my family, friends and boyfriend for all the encouragement, support, faith and love.
