This work delves into the causes of prostitution and trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation, from the analysis of the living conditions of poor women in the Dominican Republic, specifically in the Bajos de Haina. It is one of the Latin American countries with the largest presence of women in prostitution in Spain and Europe and among the victims of trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Through interviews with key informants and participant observation, qualitative information on the social circumstances of girls, adolescents and women was collected. Three characteristics that push women to migration and the exercise of prostitution can be highlighted: gender inequalities, with women in a hierarchical and subordinate position to men; very precocious motherhood, with poor bonding of the couple, which makes young girls assume the responsibilities of their children; gender violence, specifically violence by the intimate partner and violence towards the girls in the family unit, mainly incest. The absence of effective social resources that help women along with the lack of efficient policies that sensitize and raise awareness among the population about gender equity are some of the goals that must be met.
