Abstract

This article reveals the experiences of rural women in regards to the incarnation of water, and its articulation with the dimension of care and affectivity in times of a pandemic. I intend to provide a sensitive reading from the perspective of decolonial feminist political ecology on the uses of water and the sustainability of life in a rural community in Cotopaxi, Ecuador. In this context, pollution and water scarcity result in experiences differentiated by gender, and particulary, in suffering for rural women, whose daily experiences of resistance based on the acuerpamiento are their way of responding to the sanitary crisis.

Keywords:

incarnation of water, care, sustainability, acuerpamiento
