Sumario:“The FAO contracted with Fedesarrollo the consulting study "Update and Conceptualization of the Food Security Network (from Spanish Red de Seguridad Alimentaria) Intervention Model." The purpose of this study is to revise the current intervention model of the Red De Seguridad Alimentaria- ReSA and to propose the adjustments necessary to secure and strengthen the results obtained until now. This study is organized in eleven sections, the first one of which is this introduction. The conceptual approach of food security which is the fundamental basis of the study is presented in the second section. Then there is a brief explanation of the food and nutrition problem in Colombia. Section 4 presents the structure and the results and impacts of the ReSA Program. The next section brings the international experience concerning the production of food for self reliance. Then, the recent experience of the ReSA Program and the consequences of the lack of focus of the Program are revised. Section 7 presents the proposal for strengthening the ReSA Program and the new structure that the Program should have. Given the crucial importance of motivation for the development and sustainability of ReSA, Section 8 presents a discussion about this factor in the light of the new approach. Section 9 explains and details each one of the strategies of the Program. The same is done with the components in Section 10. Finally, in the last section, section 11, the structure, duration and sequence for the execution of the ReSA Program in its new development stage are presented.”
