What is the role of female traditional cooks as carriers of culinary knowledge for tourism development in some of the food markets in Bogota? This research analyses the role of the female cook as a carrier of culinary knowledge, determines contributions to gastronomic heritage that allows tourism development and generates resources for tourism use around local gastronomic heritage. Thus, interviews to traditional female cooks were conducted face to face in order to analyse the knowledge they have about Colombian Cuisine, and where they obtain this knowledge from, as well as their perception on gender division of labour on their kitchens. About methodology, a qualitative approach was used, from the action-participation research method with a process that allows a collective learning of their reality. As a result, traditional cooks are bearers of intangible cultural heritage and are representatives of Colombian cultural identity; most of their culinary knowledge has been obtained in empirical processes due to family tradition or work experience. In conclusion, their role is to keep the recipes intact and teach them to other generations to maintain cultural heritage as living heritage in the gastronomic tourism chain.

“…Incluso Acle-Mena et al ( 2020) afirman que para algunos turistas la gastronomía es su principal motivación porque ven la posibilidad de aprender más sobre la cultura con solo probar los platos tradicionales de cada destino. En adición, Saavedra et al (2021) menciona que es esencial vincular los aspectos comunitarios y de sostenibilidad para garantizar el éxito de las iniciativas turísticas.…”

Las cocineras tradicionales son personas que conservan representaciones características del territorio; el oficio culinario es una muestra de la tradición de una cultura. Esta investigación indaga el rol de estas personas y cómo se convierte en un insumo para el desarrollo del turismo en las plazas de mercado con afluencia de turistas en Bogotá. Por tanto, su objetivo consiste en analizar el papel de la cocinera como mujer portadora del conocimiento culinario, así como su aporte al patrimonio inmaterial y al desarrollo turístico local. Por consiguiente, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas para identificar los conocimientos que tienen sobre la cocina colombiana y la forma en la que se adquieren estos conocimientos. Como resultado, las cocineras son portadoras del patrimonio inmaterial y representantes de la identidad cultural; la mayor parte de sus conocimientos culinarios se han obtenido por medio de tradición familiar o a la experiencia laboral. En conclusión, ellas mantienen vivas las tradiciones culturales a otras generaciones lo cual tiene un gran potencial para el turismo gastronómico.

Research related to community tourism in Colombia is scarce, and few authors agree that the field should be deepened to understand the relationships of this phenomenon (Crespi et al, 2019;Sánchez, 2018;Galán and Rueda, 2019;Saavedra and Mora, 2022). Thus, this research describes the management of community-based tourism from a social and economic perspective; to understand how communities appropriate natural and cultural attractions through tourism.…”

Community-based tourism as an approach to a solidarity economy

Tourism is an activity established as an alternative in the rural territory and there are few investigations that have contributed to the understanding of its development with the solidarity economy. Even tourism as an economic activity is of great importance; for this reason, research must be carried out to allow recognition of the relationship between community tourism and the foundations of the solidarity economy. For the development of this research, two theories of the social sciences were analyzed, on the one hand, the concept of solidarity economy and its main characteristics are reviewed, and on the other, the theories of community-based tourism in a rural context are reviewed. These two elements allow a discussion between the theoretical assumptions, the case study and reality. This allows describing the way in which the community manages tourism and how it incorporates the solidarity economy. The methodological structure used for this research is based on a mixed approach based on a case study. The research analyzes rural community tourism from a local perspective and with a socioeconomic point of view. This case study allows us to recognize the tourism phenomenon and the solidarity economy, delimiting the object of study to a geographical context, in which social and productive relationships are recognized. This study is analyzed from what was found in the Municipality of Gachala, located in the department of Cundinamarca in Colombia. For this, interviews were conducted with the people of the community to recognize the socioeconomic aspects that were raised for this investigation. A diagnosis was made to know the tourist services offered. In the same way, quantitative aspects were examined by means of an instrument for the measurement of community-based tourism. Where, aspects such as: employment, investment, training, value chain and the incorporation of tourism with the community are reviewed. In conclusion, tourism is an opportunity for rural communities to expand their sources of income and publicize their local activities and their territory in general.
