TEIXEIRA NOTAROBERTO, Leticia Rafaela  e  MAIAROTA, Nicolás. The Right to Care and Its Implications for Women’s Migration: Insights and Reflections on Inter-American Court Advisory Opinion OC-31/25. Rev. Derecho [online]. 2025, n.31, e4920.  Epub 01-Dez-2025. ISSN 1510-3714.  https://doi.org/10.22235/rd31.4920.

This article examines the recognition of the right to care as an autonomous human right in Advisory Opinion OC-31/25 of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, highlighting its implications for the protection of women in migration contexts. From a legal and human rights perspective, it explores the content, dimensions, and scope of the right to care, as well as the state obligations entailed by its guarantee. The paper situates this analysis within feminist literature on global care chains and the feminization of migration, highlighting how structural inequalities related to gender, class, and origin are reproduced in transnational care work. It contends that Advisory Opinion OC-31/25 constitutes a milestone in the development of international human rights law, providing a normative framework that challenges the social organization of care and calls for differentiated measures to ensure substantive equality and the effective realization of migrant women’s rights

Palavras-chave : right to care; Inter-American Court of Human Rights; advisory opinion OC-31/25; women’s migration; global care chains.
