HERNANDEZ MARTINEZ, Juan Antonio; HERRERA TAPIA, Francisco y CHAVEZ MEJIA, Cristina. Capabilities, leadership and management strategies of civil society organizations in rural areas. Contad. Adm [online]. 2015, vol.60, n.4, pp.817-835. ISSN 0186-1042. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cya.2015.07.001.
Poverty in rural areas of Mexico is still an unresolved problem. Experiences of civil society organizations in other countries show that they can be allies of the government to contribute to rural development because of their roles and capabilities. This article focuses on the role of civil society organizations to improve living conditions in rural areas of the State of Mexico by analyzing the work of six civil society organizations under a qualitative perspective. Leadership and commitment are some of the most important capabilities of their female founders. They have created and implemented management strategies that allow them to obtain and generate resources to satisfy local needs. Thus, their management strategies are seen as a methodological model and a key to work in a close partnership whit rural communities which can be seen as an added-value to civil society organizations and community participation for rural development.
