Abstract

This qualitative research is based in the ethnographic method. With this research we are trying to know the collaborative capacity and contributions that immigrants `associations could do to the schools that form part of a social context characterised by the recent and massive arrival of immigrants. The information coming out from immigrants shows up that the participation of associations, besides to do a good intercultural work and favour the identity signs of new students, empower the school influence of immigrant children. In addition to, this participation would support the continuity between the school and the student family; it also constitutes a way of working with children and young people in communities of learning.
