    Study of migration in women has been a very controversial topic, due to it is increase in recent decades; as well as, the impact it has had on society. In this sense, examining multiple ways in which migration and social change are related has been considered a very important task around the world. This research considered it pertinent to analyze the processes of internal migration of women who are working informally, based on gender, ethnicity and social class. In order to respond to this objective, a qualitative type of research was proposed, with an exploratory-descriptive scope and a cross section; Therefore, semi-structured interviews, participant observation sheet and sociodemographic sheet were applied to twelve voluntary participants. The results showed that trans-sectoral conditions (such as social class, ethnicity, educational level and among others) condition activities of people in a situation of human mobility. In conclusion, informal work becomes the best option for women in a situation of internal mobility, because intersectionality works based on the understanding of discrimination processes associated with gender issues, cultural elements, racialization and sexualization processes.
