“…From the qualitative approach, the design was narrative, as it allowed social entrepreneurs to communicate the KMPs in their organizations; at the same time, it led the researchers in the construction of an objective knowledge about the subject of study [74].…”

In the context of the city of Medellín (Colombia), which has been declared a National Science, Technology, and Innovation District, Knowledge Management Practices (KMPs) have been gaining importance because they improve the commercial entrepreneurial ecosystem by articulating tacit and explicit knowledge. The study investigates the role of KMPs in Social Entrepreneurship (SE), and how this relationship generates products and services that meet social needs, with articulation between tacit and explicit knowledge, which start from the experiences of entrepreneurs and join shared interests in ecosystems and public policies of social entrepreneurship. This study employs a non-experimental design based on a survey and a deep interview for 40 SE initiatives; we then developed a Pearson’s bivariate correlation review and a narrative design. The results reveal that SE initiatives aimed at novel market niches and management strategies that articulate multiple sectors and social actors that aim for a practical scope of the purposes of entrepreneurship concerning the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations. The findings of this study suggest that KMPs in SE create a series of perspectives that seek to achieve greater competitiveness and sustainability in front of the market, all from innovative proposals of social value articulated with environmental care.

“…Farmaki (2017) agreed that such types of tourism forms are important in peacebuilding contexts as they elicit an active behaviour among participants and reinforce intergroup contact whilst offering economic and social benefits to vulnerable groups. Although research on alternative tourism forms such as community tourism and eco-tourism exists, its focus is more on the socio-economic benefits derived by the local community or certain social groups like women (e.g., Agyeman et al, 2019;Makandwa et al, 2023) rather than social cohesion and peace.…”

“…Furthermore, Mamani stated that the inhabitants of the Karina community already had basic knowledge regarding the development of rural tourism as they had been trained by local governments. It was also concluded that the inhabitants perceived their economic situation as being stable because tourism is the source of income for several families, which helps in improving their entrepreneurship to provide a better image and offer more comfort and quality services to tourists [27,28].…”

et al. 2023

Community tourism is generally carried out in areas and communities with a low level of development with a vast natural and cultural heritage that has the potential to attract tourists. Tourism development in these areas must take place in a planned manner, promoting economic, social and environmental development that generates decent employment that improves the quality of life of the population and guarantees the appreciation and conservation of natural and cultural heritage. This study analyzes the conditions of community tourism and the management of the Association of Tourism, Crafts, and Defense of Cultural Heritage Karajía, Amazonas, Peru. The study was descriptive, with a non-experimental cross-sectional design, using a matrix of the minimum conditions as a technique for developing community tourism and the survey of the management with a sample of 50 members of the association. The results show that it is feasible and meets the conditions of the Guidelines for the Development of Community Tourism in Peru to be part of the Community Tourism Strategy by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism with a score of 26.84, and the management of the Association of Tourism, Crafts, and Defense of Cultural Heritage Karajía presented a medium level with 72%. It was concluded that the community tourism enterprise managed by the Karajía Communal Tourism Association meets the minimum conditions for developing community tourism in Peru, however, it needs to strengthen the management of the enterprise.
