The main purpose of this research paper was to accompany and document the implementation of home gardens in the border municipality of Cúcuta, as a process aimed at selfmanagement and community empowerment from the human development approach, and from the perspective of empowerment. The descriptive and interpretative research process, of a cross-sectional nature, was developed under the qualitative paradigm, together with the Catholic Church represented in the priest of the Church San Andrés Apóstol, leader of the home garden program in commune nine of the city of Cucuta. The population sample, defined through nonprobabilistic sampling, corresponded to families living in the neighborhoods Rudesindo Soto, La Pastora and Belén, and the application of a semi-structured interview, complemented by fieldwork and documentary analysis, was processed through axial and representative cross-categorization matrices. As a result, the experience, advantages and benefits of the participants in terms of self-management, cooperation and community empowerment were evidenced, and a public policy proposal was formulated to support home gardens at the municipal level.
