Sumario:Celestun women are really aware of their value in the economic and social life of their community, they play an important role as a revenue source for their families, sometimes they are the leading source an some other times they mean the only source of the household income. They realize that even if their activity is not as economically important for the community, as it is that of the boatmen of the biosphere reserve or even the fishermen, it can be acknowledged that their job has a significant role as a supplementary service for tourism, specially the labor of the craftswomen and of those women which work in the hospitality business. The aim of this paper is to probe the social and economical involvement from a gender perspective, with the scope of the ecological economy on the women’s economic praxis in the ecotourism project of Celestún.
