Marcela Gutiérrez, a thirty five year old woman, was born in Bagadó (in the Department of Chocó) and has worked as a domestic worker since she was 9 years old. She moved to Bogotá with the purpose of working and saving money so that her mother could leave Bagadó, where war had broken out, and live in Quibdó. She has been involved with the Union of Domestic Employees of Colombia since 2017 and has learned to defend her rights and those of her colleagues.
