The article analyzes the daily practices of Brazilian migrant mothers of children with disabilities in Germany and their strategies to overcome structural barriers to social participation in this intersectional context of migration and disability involving one or more children. In addition, the research investigates how local infrastructures via social policies and digital infrastructures through digital communication and information technologies (DCITs) impact the access to rights and social participation of the interviewees, considering the complex reality of immigration and the practice of long-term childcare. From the case studies, it is observed that digital technologies facilitate access to information and peer exchange. However, subsequently, the guarantee of access to services and rights, such as school inclusion, therapies, and programs for the mothers' integration into German society, often remains limited and even inaccessible, especially in areas far from major urban centers. This underscores the need for more effective, comprehensive, and intersectional public policies for these families, providing solutions to this global challenge and valuing diversity and inclusion as tools for sustainable development.
