Abstract: Since its inception, occupational therapy has been interested in the exclusion experienced by populations that historically are on the margins. Among these, it is possible to cite a figure that circulates through the various frontiers of society: the foreigner. This work aimed to analyze the main challenges of changing the cultural context, in the face of migration motivated by political, economic and environmental crises, examining the relevance of the occupations of these subjects in their process of adaptation to a new culture. The research had a qualitative character and used interviews to access the life history of Haitian immigrants, who sought Brazil as a place to start over. The reports show the importance of paid work in social inclusion, as well as the need to discuss the creation of public policies and the articulation of support networks, to guarantee an effective inclusion of these immigrants to Brazilian society through access to a dignified life.
