Still, the Sandinista revolution gave them hope of a diff erent future, if not for themselves, then for their children. While they initially envisioned themselves working to build that future in Nicaragua, over time it became clear to these women that it would be diffi cult to off er the next generation real social mobility through their labors there, as previously existing social equalities were only reinforced in the aft ermath of the revolution.

And their work abroad paid off as their children, and now grandchildren, have alternatives they never had.
