Abstract
Debido a la importancia de conocer la existencia de la relación entre las variables actividad laboral femenina y fecundidad, para definir políticas económicas para un mercado de trabajo más igualitario y sostenible, el presente trabajo hace una aproximación al análisis de causalidad entre la tasa de participación femenina y la tasa global de fecundidad en 24 entidades territoriales en Colombia (23 departamentos y Bogotá Distrito Capital), utilizando el test de Granger para el periodo 2001-2018. Los resultados reflejan la heterogeneidad socioeconómica de los departamentos de Colombia al encontrar que entre las variables no existe relación causal Granger en ninguno de los dos sentidos para el 50% de los territorios analizados, lo que sugiere que factores exógenos comunes podrían afectar a ambas variables.
To have a better understanding of the relationship between female labourforce participation and fertility rate is key to define and economic policies for creating a more equal and sustainable labour market. For this reason, in this paper we analyse the causality relationship between fertility rate and female labour-force participation rate in Colombia (for 23 departments and Bogotá Capital District) using the Granger’s causality test for the period 2001-2018. The results reflect the regional cultural heterogeneity in Colombia by not finding a clear pattern on the existence and the direction of the Granger causality. In general, there is no Granger causal relationship in either direction for 50% of the analysed territories, suggesting that common exogenous factors may affect the evolution of both variables.
