CUADRADO-BARRETO, Gabriela. Collaborative Governance to Boost Coffee-growing Associativity on the Colombian-Ecuadorian Border. Gest. polít. pública [online]. 2025, vol.34, n.1, pp.39-64.  Epub June 24, 2025. ISSN 1405-1079.  https://doi.org/10.60583/gypp.v34i1.8370.

The research intertwines the theories of collaborative governance, resources and capacities, complex systems and good living. The objective is to analyze the organizational capacities generated by collaborative governance in the coffee associations of the Colombian-Ecuadorian border. It is qualitative, non-experimental, transversal, descriptive. At the organizational level, 57 associates were interviewed with semi-structured interviews about human, structural and relational associative capital. The question that guides the work is: How does collaborative governance promote the improvement of the organizational capacities of coffee associations in the Colombian-Ecuadorian border? The results show that collaborative governance provokes bifurcations in the social system by integrating associations, public institutions, NGOs and universities, and it allows the innovation of organizational capacities in partners and management of coffee associations through diagnosis, intervention and measurement of results from intellectual capital, which is presented as a contribution to administrative theory.

Keywords : public administration; government decentralization; partnerships; social systems; intellectual capital.
