    The Rural Women’s Community Enterprise of Guapi “Rios Unidos” articulates 12 community groups, with 132 associated Afro-descendant women, located along the Guapi, Napi and San Francisco Rivers in the department of Cauca. The company is based on the empowerment of women in the region, basing its work on integrated production models and the conservation of natural resources. By 2008 there was a decrease in the breeding and reproduction of Creole hens, due to factors such as the deficiency in soil productivity due to the eradication of illicit crops, insecurity and the increase of poultry farms based on the use of conventional agro-industrial production technologies; therefore, it is crucial for the Community Enterprise to implement practices that allow the strengthening of traditional systems of Creole hen production through a production model with an agroecological approach and under the methodology of Participatory Action Research -par. The process is developed in four phases: phase 1 design, research and analysis of the theoretical and practical references on Creole hens; phase 2 diagnosis and characterization of the production model; phase 3 implementation of the production model; phase 4 evaluation, identification and assessment of the production model. The results are 1. Theoretical analysis, 2. Characterization of the Seminary farm, where the production model is located, 3. Design and implementation of an alternative feeding model and a poultry grazing system, 4. In conclusion, a Creole hen production model was implemented with emphasis on agroecological transition in order to strengthen the Creole hen production systems of the Community Enterprise to contribute to the strengthening of Family and Community Farming in the region.
