The impact of international population mobility on maternal mortality in a border region between Mexico and Guatemala, 2010-2015

This study analyzes whether two types of international population mobility, international migration and cross-border mobility, influenced the intensity of maternal mortality at the municipal level in a border region beween Mexico and Guatemala for the period 2010-2015.

description This study analyzes whether two types of international population mobility, international migration and cross-border mobility, influenced the intensity of maternal mortality at the municipal level in a border region beween Mexico and Guatemala for the period 2010-2015. The plausibility of such an impact stems from the social nature of maternal deaths as outlined in the framework on the social determinants of maternal mortality. Empirical evidence shows that, among women residing in international mobility contexts, both mobilities generate mixed effects on their exposure to the determinants of this cause of death. International migration theories attribute such effects to the connections both mobilitites construct and sustain between populations residing in different countries. Negative binomial regression models demonstrate an inverse relationship between 2010-2015 municipal mortality rates and the prevalence of international migration and cross-border mobility in the municipalites where the women who died of maternal causes habitually resided during this period. This relationship remains when controlling for other determinants of maternal mortality expressed at the municipal level. Simulations suggest that this impact pertains primarily to municipalities where the structural determinants of maternal mortality are most intense. Therefore, both mobilities seem to mitigate the effects of the strutural context on maternal death.
