This article shows another perspective on indigenous migration, which occurs not only for economic and subsistence purposes but as part of the expansion of the development and dissemination of native cultures. Based on the interpretative framework of gender studies in migration, the migratory contexts of 32 Rarámuri women are analyzed, as well as their residential, labor, and multicultural relations, where important achievements are present, but discrimination is also evidenced. According to their trajectories, they faced situations of poverty, discrimination, abuse, and inequality in the three aspects analyzed. Nonetheless, they also experienced changes related to their socio-economic and personal well-being because of their incorporation into formal artisan activities, which has allowed them to contribute to the strengthening and diffusion of their culture, value their knowledge and generate income.
