Resumen
La presente investigación tuvo como propósito analizar las relaciones entre género-etnia, resiliencia y emprendimiento en mujeres pertenecientes a la comunidad indígena Mokaná del municipio de Malambo, Atlántico, considerando las condiciones de vulnerabilidad social que inciden en sus experiencias de vida. El estudio surge de la necesidad de comprender cómo las mujeres indígenas enfrentan escenarios de desigualdad asociados a factores históricos, sociales, culturales y económicos, al tiempo que desarrollan estrategias de resistencia, liderazgo y sostenimiento familiar dentro de sus comunidades.
La investigación se fundamentó en un enfoque interdisciplinario que integró aportes de los estudios de género, la antropología, la psicología social y la economía del desarrollo. Desde esta perspectiva, se comprendió el género como una construcción social vinculada a relaciones de poder, la resiliencia como un proceso de afrontamiento construido a partir de experiencias individuales y colectivas, y el emprendimiento como una estrategia que favorece la autonomía económica y el fortalecimiento comunitario.
This research aimed to analyze the relationship between gender-ethnicity, resilience, and entrepreneurship among women from the Mokaná indigenous community in Malambo, Atlántico, considering the social vulnerability conditions that influence their life experiences. The study was developed from an interdisciplinary perspective integrating contributions from gender studies, anthropology, social psychology, and development economics. A qualitative and interpretative approach was employed. Five Mokaná women between 30 and 61 years old participated in the study. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus groups, participant observation, and documentary review. Information was analyzed through three main categories: gender-ethnicity, resilience, and entrepreneurship. The findings revealed that participants play significant roles in family care, economic support, and cultural preservation. Ethnic identity emerged as a central component of their experiences through cultural practices, community participation, and the transmission of ancestral knowledge. Resilience was reflected in coping strategies based on family support, spirituality, community networks, and adaptation to social and economic challenges.
