Sumario:Horticultural producers undertake a crucial social, economic, and productive role by supplying fresh food to a significant portion of the population. However, they face multiple vulnerabilities that impact their overall quality of life and health in particular. Although Migration Law 25.871 ensures access to the right to health and healthcare, studies indicate that the healthcare system continues to restrict access for various reasons. Within this group, women are the most affected and encounter serious challenges in accessing adequate care. In this study, we aim to provide a theoretical overview of healthcare accessibility for migrant women in family farming. We will also compile insights from intercultural and intersectional perspectives, acknowledging that gender, race/ethnicity, and geographical location reveal specific ways in which inequalities are structured. Additionally, we will discuss obstacles and limitations not adequately addressed concerning healthcare accessibility and sustainability.
