Abstract

Los Sistemas de Garantía Participativos (SGP) son una estrategia de desarrollo asociativo, emprenderismo y empoderamiento para productores rurales de todo el mundo; los SGP se basan en principios y objetivos comunes, y se ajustan a las realidades sociales, geográficas y humanas de los productores que los desarrollan. El artículo tiene como propósito identificar elementos estructurales de los SGP que contribuyen a su aplicación por parte de pequenos productores rurales en Colombia. Para ello se realizó una revisión de literatura enfocada a compilar definiciones, conceptos y evidencia sobre los SGP, luego se analizó antecedentes de dinámicas productivas a nivel de comunidades rurales, posteriormente se estudió la vinculación de los sellos y certificaciones como inherentes a los SGP, con ello se reconocieron mecanismos de interacción como fue el caso de las redes sociales y las estrategias de marketing; llegando a presentar un análisis de la situación de los SGP para el caso colombiano. Se encuentra que en Colombia los aspectos estructurales de los SGP han despertado el interés en la perspectiva de los mercados locales y modelos de certificación propia a productores, asociaciones, organizaciones no gubernamentales, centros educativos, compradores y entes gubernamentales; así mismo, la importancia del contexto como punto para la adaptación e implementación de los SGP, articulando esfuerzos hacia la calidad de vida, asociatividad, sostenibilidad y cumplimiento de promesas de valor a nivel de mercado que se interviene. Se recomienda que todos los actores interesados en la comunicación de las ventajas de los SGP trabajen en conjunto y que se evidencien los casos de éxito para impulsar la aplicabilidad de los SGP como estrategia de desarrollo para la población rural del país. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** The Participatory Guarantee Systems (SGP) are a strategy for associative development, entrepreneurship and empowerment for rural producers around the world; SGPs are based on common principles and objectives, and are adjusted to the social, geographical and human realities of the producers who develop them. The purpose of the article is to identify structural elements of the SGP that contribute to its application by small rural producers in Colombia. For this, a literature review was carried out focused on compiling definitions, concepts and evidence on the SGP, then the background of productive dynamics at the level of rural communities was analyzed, later the link of the seals and certifications as inherent to the SGP was studied, with this interaction mechanism were recognized as was the case of social networks and marketing strategies; coming to present an analysis of the situation of the SGP for the Colombian case. It is found that in Colombia the structural aspects of the SGP have aroused interest in the perspective of local markets and self-certification models for producers, associations, non-governmental organizations, educational centers, buyers and governmental entities; likewise, the importance of the context as a point for the adaptation and implementation of the SGP, articulating efforts towards quality of life, associativity, sustainability and fulfillment of value promises at the market level that is intervened. It is recommended that all actors interested in communicating the SGP work together and that success stories be highlighted to promote the applicability of the SGP as a development strategy for the country's rural population.
