Descripción
Sumario:The growth of large urban centers develops within a consumption system that leads to socio-environmental and territorial problems. This article aims to gather information on territorial organization and sustainable and economic development through a recycling cooperative. To understand territorial dynamics and recycling chain processes, knowledge was sought about Circular Economy principles as a tool to achieve social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Non-participant observation and structured and semi-structured questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data from the cooperative under study. The results indicate that the strengthening of the cooperative arises from its social relationships established during the recycling process. It is concluded that, from the viability of relationships within the territory, there can be scenarios that guarantee circularity, transformation, and valorization of waste.
