Resumen

CRUZ ARCE, Sebastián; SERRANO BARQUIN, Rocío del Carmen; DELGADO CRUZ, Alejandro  y  PALMAS CASTREJON, Yanelli Daniela. Cooperativism and Empowerment ‒ Life History of El Paraíso Ecotourism Cooperative. Estudios del Desarrollo Social [online]. 2020, vol.8, n.3, 3.  Epub 10-Dic-2020. ISSN 2308-0132.

The objective of this article is to understand the intervention of cooperativism in the empowerment of the members of the Ecotourism Cooperative El Paraíso, in the state of Querétaro, Mexico. Under a qualitative methodology and a narrative design, the life history of this group was constructed. The results show that empowerment is reflected in "power with", "power to" and "power from within", which are detonated through personal aspects, close relationships and collectivity. The efforts of the cooperatives translate into the overcoming of individuals to improve their source of income (offer of ecotourism services), without leaving aside the pillars of sustainability.

Palabras clave : local development; environment; community project; ecological tourism.
