A dinâmica do campo organizacional e a adoção de estratégias na carcinicultura do RN

This study aimed to understand the relations inside the organizational Structuring of the shrimp Field - the shrimp agribusiness placed in Rio Grande do Norte State and the strategies adopted by its players. In order to achieve that, semi-structured interviews were conducted with samples of various organizations that act in the field, like cooperatives, associations, enterprises of different links in the chain, universities and state agencies. The interviews built up a large collection of secondary data. As expected, it was found that Field and strategies are related in a recursive way: the configuration of the field, a result from his own biography, has decisively influenced the strategies adopted by its actors, who, as evolved, eventually caused further changes in the Field and outlines the plot of this area of interaction. It was found, for example, that after thirty-five years of its genesis, the Field of shrimp RN still has a low level of institutionalization, which helps to understand the difficulty of its actors in establish strategies based on partnerships and cooperation; Those actions are so necessary to alleviate the effects of the crisis that devastated the industry since 2004. It was noticed, however, that this level of institutionalization is a result, beside other factors, the very strategies that field actors are embracing along its trajectory. Thus, this study hopes to have contributed both to the necessary revival of the agency to institutional phenomenon, cited by Oliver (1991), and to meet the need for more contextualized approaches to organizational strategies (MINTZBERG, 1987; CLEGG, 2004; WHITTINGTON, 2004; 2006; SARAIVA and CARRIERI, 2007). It is an exploratory study that needs further investigation in order to get deep in this research. In this sense, others methodologies and theoretical perspectives need to be used, especially those relating to the seizure of the disputes and discursive aspects of power, as salient in the field investigated. Moreover, in terms of "practical actions", it is suggested that, as soon as possible, the main actors of the field (cooperatives, companies, and state entities in class) can be able of agglutinate efforts to support the shrimp field in RN State and make sustainable actions, which can promote the development of activity in a global view. On the apse of shrimp activities everybody wanted to be the "father of the child," Now, someone has to "stay in the goal."

As relações da tríplice hélice no setor da carcinicultura do Rio Grande do Norte: uma análise a partir das abordagens da imersão social e da dependência de recursos

This work consists in a study of the Shrimp Industry in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, whose central issue relates to the understanding of how the Triple Helix (University, Government and the productive sector) interrelationship limits or expands the industry s innovation process. The study aims to understand how the Triple Helix relationship interferes in the innovation process of shrimp in Rio Grande do Norte. As the knowledge becomes the resource key for production methods, the generation of new technologies, new products and processes which demands joint and integrated action of the institutions comprising the Triple Helix: University, Government and productive sector, which possess the essential resources to innovate the process and can be maximized from cooperative relationships between the referred Institutions. Thus, in this work, it was sharply used the pioneering studies of Sabato and Botana (1968) regarding the cooperation relationship between the scientific-technological sphere, the governmental and the productive base, and studies on the Triple Helix approach, proposed by Etzkowitz and Leydesdorff (2000), in which the university has a key role in the process of technological and innovative development of countries and regions, and under which it is assigned to the very University - the character of the entrepreneurial institution, through the concept of entrepreneurial University. Aiming to overcome the criticism of Cooke (2005), regarding the limitations of the Triple Helix approach, in this study it was used - as analytical perspectives - the perspective of social immersion (Granovetter, 1985, 2005) and the theory of resources dependence (PFEFFER; SALANCIK, 1978). The analytical perspectives presented in here, despite of the different assumptions, are essential to eliminate the bias that one only approach can lead (ASTLEY; VAN DE VEM; 2007). The authors arguments focus on the fact that the integration is possible if the researcher acknowledged that different perspectives may have different descriptions of the same phenomenon. As a research strategy, this study is characterized as a study case, along with the proposed objectives - the qualitative method was used as an approach and, depending on the gathering of the sector s historical, a sectional longitudinal view approach was applied (VIEIRA, 2004). The primary and secondary data were used in order to understand the sector s evolutionary process and its inter-institutional relations - regarding the shrimp culture in Rio Grande do Norte - to promote the development, as the content was used for the technical analysis (BARDIN, 1977). The approach of social immersion and resources addiction dependence made it possible to understand that relationships are established within and between each sphere (university, government and productive sector) characterizing a network of low density relationships and strongly internal and external dependence. Based on the speech of Etzkowitz and Mello (2006), a successful Triple Helix strategy of innovation requires not only the involvement and commitment of the parts, within the institutional sphere and among them, but also the development of mechanisms to coordinate the multiple and complex interactions and interfaces, focusing on promoting both environment and context for innovation and learning; it can be acknowledge from study results that the shrimp in the State of the RN, although there are several institutional mechanisms to promote greater integration and technological development, has been presented disjointed - both internally and between the spheres - and under no legitimate practice when facing the innovational promotion and integration institutions. Due to those factors, the central institutions of the network are crucial to the promotion of innovations, spreading through their direct contacts the importance factor of the sustainable competitive activity in the world market and on the national level. However, it may be concluded, from the data, that the Triple Helix relations are interfering in a negative way on what concerns the promotion of innovations in the shrimp industry in RN

Caracterização da economia solidária à luz do ambiente isonômico de Guerreiro Ramos: um estudo no Grupo Mulheres Decididas a Vencer

The Solidary Economy is an area that has shown unusual traits to what is preached in the traditional economic organizations, even organizations that have very similar principles, as some cooperatives. This trait is approaching the concept of isonomy proposed by Ramos (1989). Given this context, and the notion that the isonomy is like a ideal type, the objective this work was to evidence particulars of isonomic environment the in economic and solidarity experiences, taking as an empirical research area the Grupo de Mulheres Decididas a Vencer, considered a solidary economic enterprise. For this, we used the descriptive-exploratory research of qualitative nature, where the object of such research is the know enterprise, therefore, also characterized as a case study, which were taken as research subjects six associates, they being the most active in the enterprise. From the five categories that characterize isonomy - minimum standards prescribing, self-gratifying activity, activities undertaken as a vocation, wide system of making decision and primaries interpersonal relations - and from the traits of a solidary economic enterprise the data analysis was built, through content analysis, specifically the categorial analysis. Given this context and reality in which it is Grupo de Mulheres Decididas a Vencer, with minimal rules and procedures for conducting activities, comparing them to a therapy, women choosing to insert in that environment, faced with a democratic space and unfettered bureaucracy in professional interpersonal relationships, in others words, an organizational space where they were shown signs of substantive rationality was possible to conclude that the Group will share experiences and characteristics of isonomy. This disclosure meets the multidimensional social that presupposes Paraecomomic Paradigm, enabling man to enter in different social environments of the economy in order to search for self-actualization

Sustentabilidade de empreendimentos econômicos solidários: contribuições e desafios do PITCPES/UFPA a partir da análise da Cooperativa dos Fruticultores de Abaetetuba - COFRUTA

The study aimed to understand how the methodology of hatching contributes to the sustainability of economic enterprises in solidarity. For analysis, we developed a study on the social economy and the incubation methodology, based on the program of teaching, research and extension - Technological Incubator of Popular Cooperatives and Entrepreneurship Solidarity (PITCPES), and as the survey of the Cooperative of Fruit of Abaetetuba - COFRUTA. We started from the exploratory-descriptive approach in a qualitative and quantitative, in order to demonstrate the process of sustainability under the dimensions of different kinds such as: the economic dimension, social dimension, the political dimension, size and scale management training. Based on the analysis of these different dimensions was reached results as: first the recognition that the incubator contributes to the sustainability of COFRUTA, especially with regard to planning, control and the need to diversify production. However, there was suggestion of cooperative for training and technical assistance is continued, to the extent that the performance of projects under the base leaves gaps for the learning and application of social technologies required to the Incubator. It also concluded that the dissertation contributes to the team of the incubator can assess their strengths and weaknesses in their performance

Gestão híbrida em cooperativa de crédito: uma análise a partir do interesse, participação, satisfação e expectativa dos cooperados da COOPERUFPA

The globalization of markets has confirmed for the processes of change in organizations both in structure and in management. This dynamic was also observed in credit unions because they are financial institutions and are under the rules of the Brazil´s Financial System. Given the context of organizational changes in the financial capital has played the traditional management reform is urgent. In organizations credit unions, given its dual purpose, because in the same organizational environment and capitalism coexist cooperative whose logics are antagonistic, but can live through the balance between instrumental rationality and substantive rationality in credit unions. Based on this concept a new form of management should be thought to be able to accommodate the demand of cooperative, community, government and the market. Hybridization has been observed in management practices` COOPERUFPA into dimensions financial, social and solidarity participation with a trend in paradigmatic form of hybrid management, in that it directly or indirectly affect the management decisions in the credit union. The hybrid management is a trend that has been setting the basis for societal transformation, so that credit unions promote actions of welfare oriented cooperative members and the community around the same time that attend the dynamics of market globalization. These actions, in the context of hybrid management should be implemented by COOPERUFPA from the sociability of the remains and the wide diffusion of solidarity culture between cooperative partnership as a way to recover their participation in trade relations, financial and the social collective developement. For the members of COOPERUFPA financial interest is evidenced in greater relevance for the social interest given its dominant relationship as "mere customer" of the credit union, however, the proactive participation of the life of the cooperative credit union is one of its expectative among of participation of to share power in decisions by general meetings. This passivity`s cooperator of the COOPERUFPA in defending the ideals overshadowed the spread of cooperative principles and values of cooperation among them. Thus his conception for COOPERUFPA in the financial dimension, social and solidarity democracy, performed transversely. The COOPERUFPA for not developing an education policy for the cooperation among its members, contributed to a process of collective alienation of cooperative ideals, since the cooperative do not understand the reality that surrounds them as members of an organization whose mission is to social and financial sustainability of its members

Innovación organizacional en la producción de cacao orgánico en Perú : estudio de caso de la cooperativa agraria Oro Verde

Frente a un escenario global turbulento en cuanto a los sistemas agroalimentarios, con fuertes cambios respecto a una demanda creciente y exigente de productos diferenciados, existen oportunidades comerciales para pequeños productores organizados en cooperativas o asociaciones, los cuales desarrollan subsistemas estrictamente coordinados. Perú se ha consolidado como un importante productor de cacao orgánico en el mundo, abasteciendo el 33 por ciento de la producción mundial. Sus exportaciones vienen creciendo con una tasa de 19 por ciento anual y en él coexisten muchas cooperativas y asociaciones dedicadas a este negocio. Oro Verde es una cooperativa desarrollada en la región San Martín y a pesar de su poca participación en el mercado viene creciendo a una tasa de 48 por ciento anual en sus exportaciones. Teniendo en cuenta que todas las organizaciones operan bajo el mismo ambiente institucional formal, surge la necesidad de estudiar en qué medida la innovación organizacional facilita mejoras tecnológicas y de aspectos comerciales a partir de la cooperativa agraria Oro Verde. Para atender a la pregunta de investigación se utilizó como metodología un estudio de caso simple incrustado y como tipo de investigación la epistemología fenomenológica, combinando herramientas cualitativas y cuantitativas (entrevistas a funcionarios y encuestas a productores). Se encuestaron 102 socios (25 por ciento) de la cooperativa. Los resultados se procesaron a partir del software InfoStat mediante el análisis multivariado: Análisis de Componentes Principales (ACP) combinado con clúster. Del análisis de las variables del ambiente organizacional surge que la transacción entre el productor socio y Oro Verde está alineada, existe dependencia bilateral y bajos costos de transacción. Los productores presentaron satisfacción en el desempeño organizacional y conformidad en el precio y plazo de pago. En el ambiente tecnológico los productores reconocieron mejoras en la tecnología implementada por la cooperativa, que les permitió posicionarse por encima de la media tecnológica del subsistema de cacao orgánico de Perú. En aspectos comerciales, se caracterizó por dos estrategias: la diferenciación y la segmentación. Se encontró alta conformidad en torno a las decisiones comerciales adoptadas por la cooperativa. Del ACP se obtuvo dos autovalores (CP1: Innovación Tecnológica y CP2: Servicio de transporte y logística) que explican el 68 por ciento de la variabilidad total. La característica más diferenciada de los grupos formados fue la lejanía a su centro de acopio. Los indicadores de conformidad de precio y plazo de pago guardan correlación positiva con el desempeño general de la cooperativa. Se concluye que la innovación organizacional de la cooperativa agraria Oro Verde, facilitó la evolución tecnológica y mejora de aspectos comerciales de los pequeños productores de cacao orgánico, teniendo bajos costos de transacción derivados del nivel de coordinación alcanzado y reflejado en la satisfacción de sus socios.

Permanências e perspectivas no ensino de projeto de arquitetura no Brasil: uma análise a partir da produção científica dos Seminários UFRGS (1985) e Projetar (2003-2011)

O objeto de estudo desta tese é o ensino de projeto de arquitetura no contexto acadêmico brasileiro. O trabalho procura analisar esse objeto nos aspectos relativos ao ensinar a fazer e ao aprender a fazer , por meio de uma perspectiva epistemológica e cognitiva, a partir da produção científica dos Seminários UFRGS (1985) e Projetar (2003-2011) sob o olhar de três estados constitutivos: conservação, permanência e transformação. A metodologia de investigação é qualitativa e seus pressupostos são investigad os por meio do método hipotético-dedutivo em busca de um conhecimento aproximativo. Dentro do universo pesquisado, as hipóteses conduzem: primeiro, à investigação e caracterização de estruturas que se conservam; segundo, à investigação e levantamento de valores e conceitos que permanecem adequados por sua capacidade de adaptação às mudanças e paradigmas; e, terceiro, por procurarem destacar práticas pedagógicas que indicam novos caminhos na maneira de agir e de se pensar o ensino de projeto de arquitetura. A pesquisa demonstrou que, embora em menores proporções, ainda se conservam ações e posturas pedagógicas que: valorizam os ideais funcionalistas e racionalistas da arquitetura; adotam posturas deterministas, caminhos prescritivos ou intuitivos no ensino da concepção arquitetural; não apresentam clareza metodológica na abordagem da problemática arquitetônica; os contextos urbanos são pouco explorados na experimentação; utilizam um sistema de concepção baseado em princípios estéticos canônicos e universais, sem problematizar as causas da transformação da arquitetura contemporânea e qual o seu papel numa sociedade complexa e diversificada. Com relação às novas perspectivas encontradas, a análise da produção científica demonstrou que a prática pedagógica do ensino de projeto de arquitetura no Brasil passa por transformações críticas valiosas. Essa constatação foi percebida, por meio, também, de reflexões e de práticas pedagógicas que valorizam a integração de conteúdos; que possuem um discurso crítico e conciliador com relação à necessidade de renovação de práticas, paradigmas, meios e conteúdos; que estão abertas às posturas cooperativas e às estratégias para a constituição de um corpo teórico-prático para o ensino do projeto que não se limite ao campo da arquitetura; que reconhecem a importância das novas tecnologias computacionais na concepção projetual e no ensino do projeto, assim como, as tecnologias e estratégias que atualizam as soluções projetuais no uso adequado dos recursos ambientais; que consideram o espaço acadêmico como um lugar propício para as experiências projetuais e pedagógicas; que manifestam um esforço em considerar a participação do usuário, assim como em realizar um processo de apreensão de contextos complexos como objeto de estudo, adotando uma postura de valorização do processo projetual. O trabalho conclui que a educação do arquiteto deve estar atenta aos aspectos relativos à inclusão da realidade sociocultural e ambiental como referência para o fazer arquitetural em detrimento da primazia dada à racionalidade técnica, uma vez que essa realidade permite a mediação, entre o ser e o mundo , como uma estratégia que supera qualquer antecipação programática e viabiliza a transformação e a construção do próprio ser e do mundo . Assim, se o aprender fazendo é necessário para a formação do arquiteto, que esse fazer seja refletido e retroalimente a prática

El efecto de One Laptop per Child en las prácticas de enseñanza y en la distribución del tiempo en el hogar.

El objetivo del documento es identificar dos posibles canales que expliquen por qué el programa OLPC en el Perú no generó efectos significativos en el rendimiento de los niños. Para ello se estimará el efecto de la introducción de tecnología (en este caso, laptops) sobre dos potenciales canales: el método de enseñanza del profesor y el tiempo destinado a actividades dentro del hogar. En primer lugar se espera que la entrega de laptops haya reducido la probabilidad que el alumno reciba un método centrado en el alumno donde se promueven las actividades cooperativas. A pesar de que este tipo de método genera un impacto positivo en el rendimiento del alumno. En segundo lugar, se espera que la entrega de laptops haya reducido el tiempo destinado a quehaceres domésticos, cuando estos inciden negativamente el rendimiento de los alumnos. A través de una estimación de mínimos cuadrados ordinarios en dos etapas y bajo una regresión simple se encuentra que la entrega exógena de laptops reduce la probabilidad del profesor de implementar un método centrado en el alumno con actividades cooperativas entre 10 y 8 puntos porcentuales para los cursos de lenguaje y matemáticas respectivamente. Para lenguaje; ello incide en el rendimiento, ya que este método genera un efecto positivo y significativo en el rendimiento de 0.025 desviaciones estándar. Mientras que, para matemáticas, el método no tiene efecto alguno en el rendimiento académico.

Dinámica de la formulación de proyectos : caso lana Merino

El presente trabajo constituye un análisis del proceso de formulación de un proyecto elaborado dentro del Régimen para la Recuperación de la Ganadería Ovina (Ley N°25.422). El objetivo es analizar y reflexionar sobre las características que asume el proceso de formulación de proyectos de desarrollo rural-urbano en el marco de programas o herramientas estatales destacando sus límites y posibilidades. Para tal fin se utilizó un abordaje cualitativo, realizando un análisis de caso instrumental, utilizando la especificidad del proyecto formulado para entrever la generalidad de la dinámica del proceso de formulación. Siempre teniendo en cuenta las diferencias entre una investigación propiamente dicha y la formulación de un proyecto donde la intervención y modificación de la realidad tienen una mayor proporción. El proyecto cuya formulación es analizada que se realizó con el objetivo inicial de diseñar una cadena agroindustrial de lana Merino apuntando a alcanzar un producto de alta calidad para el mercado nacional. Sin embargo, de cara a los hechos, y a partir de la dinámica que se produjo entre los actores que llevaron a cabo la formulación del proyecto, el mismo resultó en una prueba piloto de pequeña envergadura. A saber, un proyecto para la elaboración de carretes de hilo de lana Merino integrando una Cooperativa Agropecuaria de la provincia de Río Negro, conformada por pequeños productores ovinos, y dos Cooperativas de Trabajo (fábricas textiles recuperadas) del conurbano bonaerense destinadas al lavado y peinado de lana e hilados respectivamente.

Cooperativa habitacional autofinanciável :uma alternativa de mercado à escassez de financiamento

As an example of what happened in Brazil in the 90s, it s noticed in Natal a new system of cooperative housing production which is done by advancing the users resources selffinancing. This system comes as an alternative for the real state market performance since the end of the National Housing Bank (BNH), in 1986. Self-financed housing cooperatives play an important social role by contributing to own housing acquisition by low-income population, without, however, becoming a mechanism of social interest housing production. It is important to consider that Brazil registers a housing deficit of 6.6 million housing units (IBGE 2000/Census), which, compared to 1991, shows an increment of 21.7% to a growth rate of 2.2% a year. This deficit figure has been deepening, mainly with the end of the National Housing Bank (BNH). The self-financed cooperative housing production broadens around the Metropolitan Region of Natal (RMN) and remains as an alternative to the lack of financing in the housing / real state market. In general, the aim of this work is to analyze the role of self-financing housing cooperatives on the housing production in the RMN, in order to identify their role in the real state market, in the own housing promotion and in the housing policy. The Universe of this study is performance of four housing cooperatives - CHAF-RN, COOPHAB-RN, MULTHCOOP e CNH - that work through self-financing. It is considered here an amount of 38 undertakings launched between 1993 and 2002, including 8143 housing units. The methodology adopted consists of bibliographic, documental and field research. As a result, actions like brokerage, marketing, speculation, and the criteria to define places for undertakings and final products, show how close they are to the housing market production. As a matter of fact, this short distance explains why the self-financed cooperative production for social interest housing is still limited. This reinforces the theory that it is necessary to define and implement a subsidized housing policy to serve the low-income Brazilian population

Las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera (NIIF) y su impacto sobre los fondos de empleados en Colombia

Los fondos de empleados en Colombia constituyen en tamaño el segundo grupo más importante de las entidades de Economía Solidaria, después del grupo de las Cooperativas -- A partir del año 2016 deberán aplicar las normas internacionales de información financiera (NIIF), hecho que les impactará principalmente en el patrimonio, debido a que la NIC 32 para las Pymes establece que serán recursos patrimoniales aquellos que no se devuelven cuando el asociado se retira del fondo -- Como en este momento el patrimonio lo constituyen en su gran mayoría parte de los ahorros que hace el asociado, conocidos como Aportes Sociales, y estos se devuelven cuando el asociado se retira, dichos aportes deberán reclasificarse como un pasivo, razón por la cual el patrimonio de los fondos quedará bastante reducido -- El presente trabajo muestra cómo quedará el patrimonio de los fondos de empleados después de la reclasificación de los aportes sociales como pasivos, y las alternativas que se podrán aplicar para reponer los recursos reclasificados -- Estas entidades no van a entrar en crisis por ese hecho, pero sí deberán implementar estrategias de corto y largo plazo que les permita, no sólo reponer los recursos reclasificados, sino también fortalecer su patrimonio para que en el futuro no vayan a tener dificultades que afecten su viabilidad

Protocolo para el uso y aplicación racional de productos químicos, microbiológicos y antibióticos en la producción de camarón marino de cultivo en El Salvador

Este protocolo tiene por objeto establecer los requisitos y medidas sanitarias de prevención y control de la dispersión de enfermedades de alto impacto y para el uso adecuado y racional de fármacos de uso específico en la acuicultura, específicamente para la producción camaronera y de los laboratorios de producción de nauplios y post larvas del país. Este documento es resultado del proyecto de investigación denominado Muestreo y diagnóstico de la calidad microbiológica del agua durante un ciclo de cultivo de camarón marino en estanques de cooperativas de San Hilario, Bahía de Jiquilisco, Usulután, ejecutado por la Escuela Especializada en Ingeniería ITCA-FEPADE, Centro Regional La Unión. En este proyecto se determinó cualitativa y cuantitativamente la presencia de coliformes totales, coliformes fecales (Es-cherichia coli) y bacterias Heterótrofas que constituyen los bioindicadores estándar de contaminación orgánica del agua. Se determinó además la presencia de Vibrio sp., Pseudomonas sp., y Aeromonas sp. en el área de estudio identificados como los principales agentes causantes de enfermedades infecciosas en el camarón marino. El muestreo ayudó a conocer la influencia de parámetros físico-químicos en la presencia de los microorganismos estudiados y servirá de marco para elaborar una propuesta para un programa de monitoreo de la acuicultura en todas sus etapas del encadenamiento productivo. Se realizó un taller con la Cooperativa Senderos de Paz sobre los resultados de TCBS de la calidad del agua en el canal reservorio y el estanque número 3 de dicha cooperativa.

Sociocultural context as a facilitator of student learning of function concepts in mathematics

In Costa Rica, many secondary students have serious difficulties to establish relationships between mathematics and real-life contexts. They question the utilitarian role of the school mathematics. This fact motivated the research object of this report which evidences the need to overcome methodologies unrelated to students’ reality, toward new didactical options that help students to value mathematics, reasoning and its  applications, connecting it with their socio-cultural context. The research used a case study as a qualitative methodology and the social constructivism as an educational paradigm in which the knowledge is built by the student; as a product of his social interactions. A collection of learning situations was designed, validated, and implemented. It allowed establishing relationships between mathematical concepts and the socio-cultural context of participants. It analyzed the impact of students’socio-cultural context in their mathematics learning of basic concepts of real variable functions, consistent with the Ministry of Education (MEP) Official Program.  Among the results, it was found that using students’sociocultural context improved their motivational processes, mathematics sense making, and promoted cooperative social interactions. It was evidenced that contextualized learning situations favored concepts comprehension that allow students to see mathematics as a discipline closely related with their every-day life.

Análisis de dos modelos organizaciones en los Municipios de Morrito y San Miguelito del departamento de Rio San Juan, en el periodo del 2014-2015

El presente estudio de investigación analizó dos modelos organizacionales de las cooperativas, en la comunidad de Mayasang pertenece al Municipio de Morrito, en donde está ubicada la cooperativa Multisectorial el Esfuerzo de Mayasang conocido como COOPESFUERZO R.L. y en el Municipio de San Miguelito la Cooperativa turística, COOTURS, R.L. Del Departamento de Rio San Juan. Este estudio planteo las siguientes interrogantes: ¿Los modelos organizacionales de las cooperativas han contribuido al mejoramiento de la economía familiar en los municipios de San Miguelito y Morritos?, ¿La cooperativa ha generado y fortalecido las capacidades locales organizacionales de los participantes en los municipios a estudiar?, para responder a estas preguntas se plantearon el siguiente objetivo general ¿ Analizar dos modelos organizacionales en el Municipio de Morrito y San Miguelito del Departamento de Rio San Juan. En el periodo 2014-2015? Así mismo aplicamos las siguientes herramientas para poder recopilar información de datos en el campo, tales como: las entrevistas semi-estructurados, grupos focales, FODA (fortaleza, oportunidad, debilidad y amenaza) con los/as productores/as de las comunidades. El estudio se realizó bajo un enfoque cualitativo. Los resultados reflejan que la cooperativa nace con el objetivo y la necesidad de agruparse en cooperativa para fortalecer organizativa y económicamente a los micros, pequeños y medianas empresarios turísticos del municipio de San Miguelito armando paquetes turísticos integrales con enfoque de cadenas de valor solidarias, gestionando financiamiento en distintas instituciones financieras, promoviendo el trabajo en conjunto a través de una cooperativa que presente servicio en agroturismo. En cuanto la cooperativa Multisectorial el Esfuerzo de Mayasang nace por la necesidad del territorio, pues en esta zona hay pérdida de leche debida a la falta de acopiador de leche para luego vender a la industria láctea. Bajo esa misma dirección se establecen nexos la cooperativa Multisectorial el Esfuerzo de Mayasang, para tecnificar esta actividad, valorar su aporte a las familias. Además estar organizado en la cooperativa presenta una oportunidad de autogestión, fortalecer la organizativa, empleos, mejorando así la efectividad de participación y vinculación con otras instancias organizativas.
