This presentation aims at demonstrating the application of two indigenous territorial management models, the one with the Lecos Apolo People and the second with the Tacana People, both ethnic groups located in northern La Paz Department, Bolivia, within the framework of their cultural vision and responding to a process of organizational and regulatory strengthening, as well as the construction of a monitoring system and the generation of economic alternatives through the sustainable exploitation of their natural resources, and as a result, demonstrate that the achievements during the process have favored and impacted conservation, political incidence and local governance.
