Migration has become a way of life for rural women of Senegal. However, the role a woman plays in relation to the migratory process varies between communities. In recent decades the migration of young single girls and women to Dakar to take up employment as domestic workers has become increasingly widespread and in some communities it is almost institutionalized. Migration is a social process and as such it is organized according to certain beliefs, customs, values, and practices of a population. Rural women of Senegal play an active role in the shaping of this process, but their lives are also shaped by it. This thesis attempts to understand and characterize some of the variation in feminine migration patterns that exists and how this affects a woman's experience.
