Abstract

Lockdown in response to the spread of COVID-19 is a challenging period for migrant laborers. This study used a mixed-methods approach to explore how a community of Filipino migrants working as live-in caregivers in Israel coped with the lockdown. Philanthropy for Filipinos in need in Israel and back home was found to be an effective coping mechanism. While lockdown conditions increased the fragility of the marginalized migrant workers, their ability to donate funds empowered them at both individual and communal levels. Developing a donor identity reinforced their sense of belonging to the Filipino community in Israel and back home.

通过慈善从脆弱到赋权:COVID-19 期间以色列的菲律宾劳工移民社区

摘要

为应对 COVID-19 的传播而实施的封锁对农民工来说是一个充满挑战的时期。本研究采用混合方法来探索在以色列担任住家保姆的菲律宾移民社区如何应对封锁。发现为在以色列和家乡有需要的菲律宾人提供慈善是一种有效的应对机制。虽然封锁条件增加了边缘化移民工人的脆弱性,但他们捐赠资金的能力在个人和社区层面都赋予了他们权力。发展捐赠者身份增强了他们对以色列和家乡菲律宾社区的归属感。
