This research shows a business initiative that has been able to integrate into an environmentally sustainable food production system, such as poultry farming, a positive impact on food security and public health patterns of low-income populations in an emerging country. For a process that took 20 years, the adopted strategy has become a positive experience of sustainability and prosperity in low-income populations in Peru. The objective of the research is to conceptualize and identify the key elements of this experience so that its replication in other food production systems to impact favorably the prosperity of such vulnerable population. The Working With People (WWP) model, a validated methodology for analyzing the sustainability and prosperity of rural areas in Europe, is used for the analysis of this experience. The analysis shows that the presence of the three dimensions of this model (political-contextual, technical-business, and ethical-social) ensure the sustainability of a food production system that has an impact on the prosperity of low-income populations in emerging countries. This balance is important to enrich the connections between sustainability and prosperity, with other concepts such as core values in companies, public-private cooperation, food safety, inclusion and consumption patterns.

The characterization of territory in Peru’s Andean regions faces significant challenges due to a lack of comprehensive methodologies capable of addressing the complexity of these contexts. This research aims to bridge that gap by developing a methodology that integrates the CFS-RAI Principles with the Working with People (WWP) model to provide a detailed, contextualized framework for territorial analysis. The framework leverages the CFS-RAI Principles’ focus on sustainable agriculture and the WWP model’s proven effectiveness in fostering social transformation in Aymara communities in southern Peru. The research centers on Paucar del Sara Sara, a province in Ayacucho, Peru, characterized by a Human Development Index (HDI) of 0.42 and significant development potential rooted in opportunities for organic agriculture and collaboration with the mining sector. Employing geographic analysis and qualitative methods, this study draws comparisons with existing literature and presents insights from the case study to develop a matrix of key variables for territorial analysis in Andean regions. Additionally, the research introduces a methodology for defining mining companies’ areas of influence while addressing prevalent socioeconomic challenges in these territories.

University education in Peru is based on models of teacher-centered teaching and a conception of knowledge which is closed and static and under the dominance of an information model now overwhelmed by multiple factors hastened by international change. The worlds most prestigious universities have chosen cultural diversity as a sign of quality and are hence interested in the mobility of teachers and students through exchange and cooperation with foreign educational institutions. These universities respond more effectively to pressure from the international business sector, better satisfy training demands, introduce new information and communication technologies into education and research and have improved administration and management structures. While there is progress, the university system in Peru is a planning model defined "as a discipline that seeks to respond to the needs of an organization defined by new cultural and social models" (A. Cazorla, et al 2007).This paper studies the non-Euclidean thinking of planning and development of John Friedmann (2001). Based on the four domains of social practice, it proposes a planning model for Peruvian universities that meets international requirements

Purpose: This study aims to enhance the understanding of how capabilities for interorganizational dyadic coopetition are developed within a multilevel organizational framework. Design/methodology/approach: This study draws on a systematic review of 308 coopetition articles and follows a three-stage analysis. First, data were organized into a matrix of organizational concepts. Second, pattern inductive techniques were used to identify key organizational factors. Third, the analysis incorporates interorganizational research to deepen understanding of managerial capabilities and propose their multilevel links to organizational factors. Findings: This study identifies four individual-level competencies, seven firm-level capabilities, seven interorganizational capabilities and eight organizational and interorganizational factors. Additionally, it develops five propositions on the interrelationships among these elements, aligning them toward the development of coopetitive capabilities. Originality/value: This research leverages organizational diagnostic models as a conceptual framework to study coopetition from a systemic organizational perspective. As a result, it enhances the understanding of coopetitive capabilities by applying a multilevel approach, proposing that successful coopetition relationships require the development and integration of all components of an organizational system. Furthermore, it suggests novel research avenues to advance coopetition theory.

Purpose: This paper aims to conceptualize purpose implementation at the organizational level and to develop and validate a scale for assessing whether corporate purpose is effectively implemented within organizations. Design/methodology/approach: The authors used a six-step methodology: defining the construct, developing and generating measurement items, specifying the model, collecting data from 433 managers and business leaders in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America, evaluating and refining the scale through confirmatory factor analysis and assessing the scale’s validity and reliability. Findings: This study conceptualizes purpose implementation at the organizational level and provides a valid scale to assess purpose implementation within organizations, offering a tool for both academics and practitioners. This scale enables organizations to evaluate how corporate purpose is deployed, while also supporting scholars in advancing research on purpose-driven organizations. Originality/value: No valid measurement scales existed to capture purpose implementation at the organizational level. This paper fills that gap by offering a reliable and valid instrument to assess and strengthen the link between corporate purpose and sustainable management.
