Abstract

After the declaration of the Serranía de las Quinchas Regional Natural Park, a series of effects on the community of the area of influence have been generated, altering the habitual development of economic activities, causing an increase in poverty, creating new limitations, as well as phenomena of displacement from rural areas to urban areas, also generating the development of illegal activities such as extensive deforestation from the declaration of the area as a protected area. When determining the lack of economic alternatives with a sustainable focus in the area, this project seeks to propose an alternative of sustainable economic activity for the buffer zone of the PNRSQ of the municipality of Otanche, based on rural community tourism (TRC), seeking to minimize negative impacts on natural ecosystems and the population of the area of influence, implementing cooperative processes. Through the Logical Framework matrix, the environmental, social and economic diagnosis of the area constructed from the bibliographic information and field work carried out with the community was obtained, in the same way a tourist inventory was made, where the main environmental and social attractions that constitute the offer of goods and services in the area, in this way they were classified into tourist packages, taking into account their characteristics, giving rise to the design of the TRC plan, in which a map was made where They identified all the established points and their corresponding route, in this way a brochure was prepared in which everything described in the CRT plan is identified. Finally, the elaborated CRT plan was socialized with the community, and thus the weaknesses, opportunities, strengths and threats identified by the community were identified, generating improvement strategies for the proposed plan.
