Dreamers

Dreamers are individuals, often young immigrants, who were brought to a country illegally as children. They typically grew up in that country, know its language and culture, but lack legal immigration status. Many Dreamers seek opportunities like higher education or work, but face restrictions due to their legal status. The term is most commonly associated with the United States and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which temporarily protects some Dreamers from deportation. Essentially, they are people caught in a complex legal situation, with strong ties to their communities and aspirations for stability and inclusion.
