ORTIZ PIEDRAHITA, Vanessa; GOMEZ-PULGARIN, Wilson Eduardo y CAMACHO GOMEZ, Ángela Rocío. The Feminization of Pendular and Floating Migration Flows on the Colombian-Venezuelan Border. Migr. Inter [online]. 2023, vol.14, rmiv1i12688. Epub 24-Nov-2023. ISSN 2594-0279. https://doi.org/10.33679/rmi.v1i1.2688.
This article describes and characterizes the floating and pendular migration flows of a group of Venezuelan women in the border city of Arauca, Colombia. Using a qualitative methodological approach, field observations, in-depth interviews, focus groups, and a literature review of updated academic, regulatory, and institutional texts were conducted in an area of study with limited gender- based description. Thus, this study highlights the role of Venezuelan women as active migrant subjects and concludes that the labor, family, and social trajectories of the interviewed women are transversely modified by their migration experience, as they are subjected to various risks that expose their vulnerability as migrant women, in addition to risks derived from xenophobia and discrimination. Paradoxically, the migratory diaspora represents their only hope for having a better quality of life.
