LABRADOR MACHIN, Odalys; MIRABAL GONZALEZ, Yamira y TORRES PAEZ, Carlos Cesar. Potential of agro livestock cooperatives in terms of food sovereignty and nutritional education. Coodes [online]. 2020, vol.8, n.3, pp. 587-602. Epub 02-Dic-2020. ISSN 2310-340X.
The purpose of this paper was to argue the role of agricultural cooperatives as a key actor in achieving food sovereignty and their strengths in promoting nutritional education among their members and the community. The methods used were historical-logical, systemic and hypothetical-deductive and, as empirical, observation. The procedures used were analysis and synthesis, scientific abstraction, induction-deduction and individual and group interview techniques, with a predominance of documentary analysis and research, and participatory action. It is concluded that the foundations of cooperativism have turned this movement into a key factor of development, which contributes in a decisive way to food sovereignty, so the synergy between both aspects will allow to make it concrete and to project actions in pursuit of a nutritional education that leads to a healthy life. The contributions of the cooperative sector to the management of local food systems and municipal development strategies as tools that help to food sovereignty and nutritional education are needed.
