Abstract

En este trabajo se analiza el efecto de los ingresos laborales de la mujer rural sobre la violencia doméstica en Colombia, entre 2009 y 2013. Con este fin, se construye un indicador de violencia doméstica contra las mujeres, a nivel municipal, utilizando información sobre el número de mujeres que fueron atendidas en centros de salud a causa de la violencia doméstica. Los resultados indican que una mayor generación de ingresos de las mujeres rurales en la mayoría de los sectores económicos (café, banano, frutas, cría de ganado porcino y comercio) disminuye la violencia doméstica, mientras que en otros sectores ocurre lo contrario (cría de aves de corral y servicios). Esto último puede explicarse por el hecho de que los servicios y la cría de aves de corral son principalmente trabajos domésticos que no empoderan a la mujer y son erróneamente subvalorados. También se encontró que una mejora en la actividad económica del municipio y un aumento en la cobertura de la educación secundaria contribuyen a reducir la violencia contra las mujeres.
