It is a case study with participant observation, action research, bibliographical and documentary; and semi-structured interviews. The said Council became a space of articulation and negotiation of strategies of public interest with protagonism of the civil society. This arena has been strengthening as it has been presenting positive results regarding the productive inclusion of rural communities. The BIG Council has promoted the approach among the institutions widening its opportunities. And it has advanced in the conquest of distribution and commercialization spaces in the market.
