Autores especializados en el tema de las microfinanzas indican que facilitar el microcrédito a las mujeres es una estrategia para mejorar la situación de pobreza en que viven. El presente artículo habla sobre la experiencia de las prestatarias atendidas por ProMujer en su Centro Focal de Ixmiquilpan, estado de Hidalgo. Durante el ejercicio de los recursos financieros, se encontró que las acreditadas lograron conciliar lo productivo con lo reproductivo, sin embargo, esto derivó en dobles o triples jornadas de trabajo y restringió su libertad y disponibilidad de tiempo. Se reafirma que el microcrédito mejora significativamente la pobreza alimentaria o de patrimonio de las mujeres, pero al analizar el problema desde la perspectiva de género, ellas resultan ser más pobres si se considera la pobreza por capacidades.
Specialized authors in the microfinance’s field affirm that providing microcredit to women is a strategy to improve their situation of poverty in which they live. This article talks about the experience of borrowers served by ProMujer in their Focal Center located in Ixmiquilpan, state of Hidalgo, Mexico. During the financial resources exercise, it was found that accredit women got to conciliate the productive subject with the reproductive one. Nevertheless, this situation took them to work double and even triple shifts of work were required and with those long days of work, they lost their availability of time for other tasks. The research reaffirms that microcredit help women to improve significantly their poverty situation or their patrimony, but analyzing this subject from another point of view, for example, thorough the wyes of the perspective of gender, women became poorer than before getting the microcredit, if it is considered poverty for capacities.
