17

This article explores the integration of transculturality into educational practices with migrant families. Through the support of Veasna and her children, it highlights the importance of tailored interventions, close to the family’s daily life, that consider personal history, trauma, and mother tongue. The “transcultural consultation” enables the family to trace their journey, express long-silenced experiences, and strengthen intergenerational bonds. This experience underscores the need for respectful listening to cultures and family memory, showing that innovation and creativity are essential for adapting social work practices to the complex realities of families.
