BONILLA VALENCIA, Solange. Vulnerability and Agencies of Venezuelan Migrants in Bogotá in Times of Pandemic. Estud. sociol [online]. 2024, vol.42, e2357.  Epub 24-Mayo-2024. ISSN 2448-6442.  https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2024v42.e2357.

In this article, I use an intersectional, decolonial feminist perspective to analyze the socioeconomic vulnerability of Venezuelan migrant women residing in Bogotá during the Covid-19 health crisis as well as their agency, between March 2020 and August 2021. The research is located within the framework of decolonial feminisms in Latin America and the Caribbean, and the field of gender and South-South migration. Using mixed methods, I analyze quantitative data from three surveys and interviews with ten migrant women. The results show that although lockdown affected the quality of life of the majority of migrant women in the city, they adopted an array of survival strategies.
