    Abstract:
    This study has focused on understanding how the social organization of care of Moroccan older people is. The objectives of the research have been to reconstruct migratory trajectories and analyze their impact on old age; analyze the social organization of care in the destination country considering the different agents that provide resources for care and identify and understand cultures of care and aging. The research methodology is qualitative and two methodological strategies have been used: case studies and multi-sited methodology. Our analysis has revealed two profiles of Moroccan older people: retired people and parents' reunification. lt has been observed that migratory trajectories have impacted the stage of old age and current social conditions. In migratory context, care it continues to be organized with family and own home, with a limited presence of the State as a provider of specific resources for care and an absent the care market. Finally, the research concludes that the specific needs of Moroccan older people living in Catalonia are invisible to current public policies on aging and care.
