SOUZA, Ana Luiza da Gama e    COSTA, Lara Denise Góes da. Sustainable peace agency and vulnerable migrants: the case of Electrolux as a development agent for positive peace. []. , 68, pp.125-137.   31--2020. ISSN 1645-9199.  https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2020.68a09.

Before the global migration crisis, public policies in Brazil have proven to be insufficient to guarantee vulnerable migrant´s access to basic rights, especially the right to decent work. In this gap, companies, due to their economic power and the social impact of their practices, can be agents of sustainable peace, contributing to these people’s access to the formal labour market. This article proposes to analyze the Electrolux corporate practice of training and hiring refugees in Manaus, as a corporate agency for peace, to assess their social impact, as a potential to guarantee the right to work for these people.
