DIAGNOSTICO DEL CONTEXTO Y SEGUIMIENTO DE CAMBIOS DE ACTITUD PARA ACCIONES EFECTIVAS DE UN PROYECTO DE INNOVACION AGROPECUARIA/Diagnosis of the context and follow-up of attitude changes for effective actions of an agricultural innovation project

With the objective of evaluating the influence of the context on the impacts of the Local Agricultural Innovation project, two tools were designed for its monitoring and evaluation: context diagnosis and step - by - step monitoring of the change of attitude in the achievement of the expected effects. The first with four fields at the national level: no influence, slight influence, medium influence and high influence. The second tool, representing four qualitative levels, starts reflecting the initial situation and then in a stepwise manner, determines possible actions for its evolution over time to reach the desired level of change of attitude leading to the achievement of the expected effect. Its application since the year 2014 has shown its usefulness to guarantee the project's resilience in relation to the influence of the context, as well as the design of an efficient action plan in correspondence with the strategies and priorities of the organisms and governments. It was possible for actors with different perspectives, interests, roles and powers to create negotiated commitments that meet common needs. For this purpose, a collective appropriation of the processes with well defined responsibilities was also necessary. The context evaluation and the staggering of the attitude change allow a reading of the sustainability of the actions of the projects in the short, medium and long term. The results provide the possibility of developing a coherent action plan to ensure project resilience. Key words: communities, socioeconomic environment, context assessment, anthropogenic influence Con el objetivo de evaluar la influencia del contexto en los impactos del proyecto de innovación Agropecuaria Local, se diseñaron dos herramientas para su monitoreo y evaluación: diagnóstico del contexto y seguimiento escalonado del cambio de actitud en el logro de los efectos esperados. La primera con cuatro campos a nivel nacional: sin influencia, leve influencia, mediana influencia y alta influencia. La segunda herramienta representando cuatro niveles cualitativos, inicia reflejando la situación de partida y seguidamente de forma escalonada se determinan posibles acciones para su evolución en el tiempo hasta llegar al nivel deseado del cambio de actitud conducente al logro del efecto esperado. Su aplicación desde el año 2014 ha mostrado su utilidad para garantizar la resiliencia del proyecto en relación a la influencia del contexto; así como, el diseño de un plan de acciones
