Fieldwork 2010

We conducted fieldwork in Mérida from February to July 2010. Hannah moved to Mexico in February and stayed until June. Barry was there in March and April, and Inês in March, April and July. Federico, Hugo and the gang at CINVSTAV were there all the time. We conducted a very in-depth research of 58 mother-child dyads in the Colonia San Jose Tecoh, in the southern part of the town.
See some photos of the neighborhood and of our work with the families.
