AB The aim of this article was to analyze some of the challenges posed to social intervention when working withmigrant women in the context of the Spanish southern border, focusing on documentary analysis and the discourses ofprofessionals who work in organizations in Andalusia, Ceuta and the Canary Islands. Using Zapata-Barrero and Ferrer-Gallardo’s (2012) multiple concept of border as an analytical tool, we identified challenges linked to the ontological,epistemological and ethical borders that arise in social intervention processes. Among the conclusions, we highlight howsocial action, in this context, has to deal with a radical categorization between people who are expellable and dispensablebased on control policies, and those who are welcome, based on protection frameworks that tend to place the subjectswithin the category of “victim”. Alongside this dichotomy, a reflection emerges on how to accompany the people withwhom we intervene as right holders and key parts of social integration models and mechanisms.
