Sumario:From an anthropological and gender perspective, this article analyzes the caregiving practices of platform-based delivery women in a collective in Mexico City, and how they balance productive and reproductive care with their participation in collective action. We aim to shed light on how caregiving practices are constructed and their significance within the organizational dynamic. We argue that caregiving is configured as a central element of collective action, especially care related to the self, to their peers, and to the body and tools. This contrasts with domestic caregiving tasks, which are individualized and regarded as a private matter, for which each delivery woman is expected to take responsibility.
