| Summary: | This article characterizes the mobility patterns of women and men residing in the first ring of rural development of Cuenca, Ecuador. It focuses on those who engage in economic, educational, and care tasks. Using data from a representative survey applied in the study area, the destinations, modes of transportation, travel times, and other variables associated with their daily trips are described. The results show that the mobility of all groups is characterized by trips to the urban area. However, women who perform paid work and care tasks use public transport more and invest more time in their travels. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of gender roles, occupational ties, and public transportation in rural mobility |
