“…In other words, the predicted probability of migration was calculated for each variable with all other covariates held at their means. In the few demographic case studies of Indigenous people's migration in Brazil, several of these variables were identified as relevant to explain mobility patterns (Teixeira et al 2019). Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were also estimated along with their statistical significance.…”

“…Studies in other Latin American countries point out violence, loss of traditional territories, and seeking education, health, and wage labor as key variables in triggering rural-urban migration among Indigenous people (Del Popolo et al 2011;Campbell 2015;McSweeney and Jokisch 2015;Wong and Sánchez 2014). With few exceptions (Estanislau 2014;Simoni and Dagnino 2016), investigations about Indigenous population migration in Brazil over the past decade have not relied on national census data, but instead use data from case studies aimed at understanding specific ethnic groups in local or regional contexts (Azevedo et al 2013;Colman and Azevedo 2019;Teixeira et al 2019). Macrolevel analyses about Indigenous migration patterns based on national statistics are scarce, thus limiting possibilities for intra and international comparisons.…”

Research in several Latin American countries points to violence, loss of traditional territories, and seeking education, health, and wage labor as key variables in triggering rural–urban migration among Indigenous people. This study presents an analysis of the migration patterns of Indigenous people in Brazil, compared to non-indigenous people, based on data from the most recent national census, conducted in 2010. Migration characteristics related to lifetime migration and recent migration were investigated by means of descriptive and multivariable logistic regression analyses. The findings pointed to complex mobility scenarios according to migrants’ Indigenous status and geographical regions of origin and destination. Indigenous people living in urban areas presented high levels of mobility (approximately 50% lived in different municipalities from those where they were born), which were more pronounced than those of non-Indigenous people. Indigenous people living in rural areas presented the lowest levels of migration (approximately 90% residing in their municipality of birth). Statistical modeling confirmed the patterns observed in descriptive analysis, highlighting the marked mobility of Indigenous subjects in urban areas. We emphasize the limitations of using census data for characterizing Indigenous mobility profiles, although no other nationally representative data are available. The finding that the Indigenous population living in urban areas presents rates of migration higher than their non-Indigenous counterparts is particularly important for the planning and implementation of a broad range of public policies aimed at ethnic minorities in the country, including health, education, and housing initiatives.
