The research "Migration process carried out by the shawi people of Nuevo Chacatán, Loreto San Juan Bautista 2023" was conducted at kilometer 72,780 of the Iquitos-Nauta highway. At San Juan Bautista district, at Maynas province, at Loreto department. Employing a qualitative approach and ethnographic design. Identifying 20 key informants and applying a snowball sampling strategy. Mainly, adults from the community were interviewed, as well as the main leader Wa'an Nahwiri Rafael Chanchari Pizuri, who is known as a nunentun, a shawi plant healer, an expert in healing methods through ayahuasca rituals. Simultaneously, data collection instruments were applied through semi-structured interviews and community information guides. The research shows that the new inhabitants of Chacatán have three motivations to migrate from Sillay to Nuevo Chacatán, the main ones being: a) accusations of practicing witchcraft, b) prior knowledge of a family member who settled there previously, and c) seeking treatment for some illness with traditional shawi medicine. The reproduction of their own institutions, values, and social organization is a form of ethnic resistance, present in the migratory process that reveals socio-cultural changes pressured by the capitalist system.
