| Abstract (English): |
The interest of the founders and executives of Crepes & Waffles S.A., founded in Colombia in 1980, has been focused on closing social gaps. Therefore, the company continuously works to find mechanisms that enable rural producers to combine their collective experience and knowledge of local conditions, putting them at the service of a sustainable and equitable agricultural system. As a result, the "Regenerative Sourcing" program was created to guide commercial relationships with suppliers who are part of peasant, family, and community based agricultural production systems. Following the Experience Systematization methodology, a positive impact has been identified in strengthening the organizational capacity of producer associations. To measure this impact, it is suggested to analyze the capabilities of these organizations through appropriate indicators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
El interés de los fundadores y directivos de Crepes & Waffles S.A., fundada en Colombia en 1980, se ha centrado en cerrar las brechas sociales. Por ello, la empresa trabaja continuamente en la búsqueda de mecanismos que permitan a los productores rurales unir su experiencia colectiva y conocimiento de las condiciones locales para ponerlos al servicio de un sistema agrícola basado en la sostenibilidad y la equidad. En consecuencia, se creó el programa de "Abastecimiento Regenerativo", cuyo propósito es orientar las relaciones comerciales con proveedores que forman parte de sistemas productivos de agricultura campesina, familiar y comunitaria. Siguiendo la metodología de Sistematización de Experiencias, se ha identificado un impacto positivo en el fortalecimiento organizacional de las asociaciones de productores. Para medir dicho impacto, se sugiere analizar las capacidades de estas organizaciones a través de indicadores adecuados. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
