Propuesta sostenible para la elaboración y comercialización de productos de especies no maderables del bosque en zonas con función amortiguadora del Parque Nacional Natural Sierra de la Macarena

Abstract

Colombia ranks second as the most biodiverse country among the 12 megadiverse countries in the world, (COLCIENCIAS, 2016), if we talk about biodiversity we can imagine that there is also a lot of different foods and products. However, we do not see that reflected in the markets, nor in the export products. However, we do not see that reflected in the markets, nor in the export products. This is associated with the expansion of the agricultural frontier without taking into account the protected areas that aim to preserve ecosystem services for current and future communities. For this reason, this degree work aims to carry out a methodology to develop processed products that avoid deforestation and make sustainable use of biodiversity, carrying out the business plan through the CANVAS methodology and a strategic plan design with indicators that account for the proposed model for the commercialization of sustainable projects in the Bocas del Sanza and Bajo Curia villages of the Municipality of San Juan de Arama, Department of Meta and in turn area with buffer function of the Sierra de la Macarena National Natural Park and that serves as an example or base for other similar situations in the country.
