According to the indicators of marginality of the National Evaluation Council, the municipality of Pluma Hidalgo, Oaxaca, is one of the poorest in Mexico, which is why it is essential to promote initiatives that address their employment and nutrition needs. For this, however, some limitations of a scientific nature must be overcome to create or improve the mechanisms of transformation, adaptation and commercialization. The objective of this work, therefore, is to present a strategy based on the theoretical approaches of systemic competitiveness, innovation and sustainability for the use of the resources available in the aforementioned location. For this, a diagnosis was made to determine that in this community the levels of marginalization are very high, which are characterized by the following points: 1) although they do not have active workforce, they have resources with possibilities of being exploited, 2) the area is located in a strategic location, but lacks communication routes, both wired and wireless telephone services, and 3) they require training to transform the resources that can be exchanged with the other communities. The results show that the economic development of the population must consider the following four elements: 1) systemic competitiveness, in which all agents at the micro, meso, macro and meta levels participate in the competitiveness of a region, 2) microinnovation, in which villagers with analytical skills for the well-being of the community recognize areas of opportunity to generate goods, which, when exchanged, generate the wealth that leads to economic development, 3) sustainability, so that wealth can be generated without undervaluing the productive capacities of the future, and 4) integral education to consolidate the permanence of the previous ones.

Keywords : systemic competitiveness; development; education; microinnovation; sustainability.
