Resumen
La presente investigación tiene como objetivo determinar el alcance de la iniciativa Finca Campesina Veleña, en términos de organización y movilización social, con el fin de hallar elementos conceptuales y estratégicos que favorezcan el desarrollo de la Soberanía Alimentaria. Metodológicamente se emplea una herramienta de tipo cualitativa descriptiva, bajo el uso de técnicas como la revisión documental, las entrevistas semi-estructuradas y los grupos focales. Con un riguroso desarrollo metodológico, se describen los autores y actores del proceso, se detallan el conjunto de acciones estratégicas desarrolladas por la comunidad y la relación con los elementos de la organización y movilización social que emergen de esta iniciativa. Dichas acciones estratégicas dialogan con el marco conceptual y están categorizadas como defensa del territorio, ordenamiento territorial, alternativas económicas, identidad cultural, modos de producción sostenible y sustentable, comercio justo, reconocimiento y participación social. A partir de esto, se logra establecer las herramientas o elementos estratégicos que permiten promover soberanía alimentaria, teniendo en cuenta su importancia y el aporte que puede brindar a organizaciones, procesos ciudadanos y territorios. Estas herramientas son, primero, la cultura e identidad como elementos simbólicos de arraigo al territorio; segundo, la construcción de poder individual y colectivo a partir de la participación, teniendo en cuenta que la soberanía es un concepto que se define justamente en torno al poder; tercero, la defensa y protección del territorio como un factor de movilización; cuarto, la promoción de alternativas de desarrollo económico territorial como un elemento base de las organizaciones; y quinto, el desarrollo de alianzas y trabajo en red que se forja bajo la centralidad, la precisión y la claridad de las iniciativas propuestas por parte de las organizaciones.
Abstract: The objective of this research is to determine the scope of the initiative Finca Campesina Veleña, in terms of organization and social mobilization, in order to find conceptual and strategic elements that can support the development of Food Sovereignty. Methodologically, a descriptive qualitative tool is used, under the use of techniques such as documentary review, semi-structured interviews and focus groups. With a rigorous methodological development, the authors and actors of the process are described, detailing the set of strategic actions developed by the community and the relation with the elements of the organization and social mobilization that emerge from this initiative. These strategic actions interact with the conceptual framework and are categorized as territorial defense, territorial ordering, economic alternatives, cultural identity, sustainable production modes, fair trade, recognition and social participation. From this, it is possible to establish the strategic tools or elements that allow promoting food sovereignty, taking into account their importance and the contribution they can provide to organizations, citizen processes and territories. These tools are, first, culture and identity as symbolic elements of rootedness in the territory; second, the construction of individual and collective power based on participation, taking into account that sovereignty is a concept that is defined precisely around power; third, the defense and protection of the territory as a mobilization factor; fourth, the promotion of territorial economic development alternatives as a base element of the organizations; and fifth, the development of alliances and networking that is forged under the centrality, precision and clarity of the initiatives proposed by the organizations.
