Resumo

Rural tourism is characterized for being mainly community-based and for having links of associativity and cooperativism among farmers. The objective of this research is to describe the actions of the socio-ecology and the changes over time in rural community tourism in an association of tourism farmers located in the town of Ciudad Bolívar in Bogotá. The research approach is qualitative, the information was obtained through several field works and structured interviews with the community leader and a qualitative diagnosis of aspects in the social and ecological management of tourism. The results are achieved after the analysis of the impacts of tourism in the territory. The social and ecological management of the case study is highlighted and a high potential for economic development in the current situation is evident. In conclusion, tourism with a community and ecological approach has great potential, although it is quite empiric and new forms of rural development can be generated that contribute to environmental conservation and social processes in the territory.
