Abstract

This article presents a preview of the outcomes obtained from the technological development project entitled “Transformation of post-harvest treatment practices of the Soursop to strengthen local identity and commercialization”, in the development of three of its four phases. The approaches that have guided the process are participatory design and systemic thinking. The project has been developed together with the Aprofruverf Association of the municipality of Fresno, Colombia, where different transforming practice devices were deployed, which have strengthened the associative and identity processes of the farmers, and which have resulted in the improvement of their quality of life through concrete proposals for postharvest improvement and commercialization.
