The CGIAR Research Program on Integrated System for the Humid Tropics, or Humidtropics, works towards transforming the lives of the rural poor in several action sites in Asia, Africa and Tropical America. In doing so, different technologies and innovations were implemented and while at first the capacity development was going on almost intuitively, as an integrated part of the implementation process, it has soon become clear that such groundbreaking activities and ideas require a more organized and supervised approach.

Este fascículo, en su versión actual , es el primero de una serie inicial de textos y recursos del Sistema de Gestión Estratégica para el Desarrollo Territorial y la Agricultura Familiar (SiGET), cuya finalidad es compartir un conjunto de orientaciones metodológicas sobre los procesos de gestión social del desarrollo de los territorios rurales y de los sistemas territoriales de agricultura familiar (STAF) que son o pueden convertirse en motores de desarrollo.
El propósito de este texto es explorar el concepto de sistemas territoriales de agricultura familiar (STAF) en el marco de procesos que promuevan, de manera integrada, iniciativas de desarrollo de nuestros territorios rurales y de fortalecimiento de las agriculturas familiares, en el marco de políticas nacionales articuladas o complementarias entre sí.
Este material tiene como propósito brindar herramientas y recursos para promover y fortalecer los procesos asociativos en el territorio, y está destinado a los equipos técnicos del INTA y también de todas aquellas organizaciones e instituciones que trabajan en la promoción del desarrollo de los agricultores familiares. Ofrece pautas y orientaciones para los grupos asociativos que recién se están conformando y también para aquellos que ya tienen un camino recorrido.
Las políticas públicas inclusivas requieren de cambios en el marco institucional y normativo; en las prácticas de cómo funcionan las instituciones; en la lógica de actuación de sus dirigentes y funcionarios; en los métodos de implementación de las políticas y programas; y en el enfoque de aterrizaje de las acciones.
