Abstract
Tourism is an activity of sustained growth in the world, it offers opportunities for economic welfare and development, as confirmed by the World Tourism Organization, which reports a 7% growth during 2017, surpassing 1,300 million international arrivals, of which approximately 1'600,000 visitors arrived in Ecuador. The study included an inventory of the tourism potential of the San Jacinto del Pindo commune, in the province of Pastaza, through field visits, participatory workshops and the use of information sheets on situational diagnosis and tourism characterization. Its real situation was determined by the existence of tourist facilities, infrastructure, offer, and governance in the territory. Tourism resources were identified, as established by the Inventory Methodology of the Tourism Ministry of Ecuador, which allowed for their recognition, registration, classification, and ranking. This study was carried out in collaboration with the Autonomous Decentralized Government of the province of Pastaza and students of the tourism program of the Amazon State University as part of community service activities. The participatory execution of this research allowed to reach results that are valid contributions for the construction of territorial development and planning strategies from the conception of the collective work of the communities and the institutions of the public sector.
