While results indicate a considerable desire or need to work outside of Cotacachi for income, they show an even higher attachment to place. Despite traveling for work, most indigenous peoples continue to identify Cotacachi as their home. This process, called circulation, allows for a continuous flow in and out of the region.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightRural-urban migrationRural-rural migrationCirculationAttachment to placeMigration for workGovernanceAbstractCopyright CAB International 2006
