This article intends to reflect upon the place given to migration policy in the public agenda of General Pueyrredón municipality, in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, during the period of 2010-2017. Among the process of policies, it focuses on the initial stage related to the inclusion of the migration issue in the local agenda; with the purpose of identifying the mechanisms that set up its inclusion, the reactive or proactive mode in which it is introduced, the social actors that promote the inclusion, among others. It shows that the migration matter does not have a pre-established place in the agenda of General Pueyrredón municipality, however, there are occasional, reactive and superficial entries, which are not enough to question the access of migrants to social rights.
