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.

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.
