Small-scale coffee-producing families have been confronting a series of recurring issues. Facing this situation, the families have implemented strategies to enable them to recover and persist in their search for well-being. The goal of this study was to analyze diversification as a mechanism operating within the socio-environmental coffee-producing system which defines the establishment of family strategies to deal with the threats they are facing. Information was analyzed from 100 interviews carried out in 28 locations in the region of the Sierra Madre del Sur mountain range in Chiapas State. Five main diversification strategies were identified that might strengthen the resilience of this socio-environmental system.
