Abstract

Introduction: The article reflects research conducted through the National Knowledge Management and Innovation Network for Local Development (GUCID). The question that guides this research is: How can higher education, with its human potential, scientific and technological capabilities continue to consolidate itself as a key player in local development through its links with governments and other local actors? Objective: To develop and disseminate new concepts on higher education, government, local development links that nurture policies for territorial development, and to strengthen the role of higher education in local development processes.
Methods: Altogether the preferred method used is the research/action method.
Results: Important theoretical and methodological contributions were achieved that enrich the understanding of university-society links, incorporating the local scope, with its many particularities and specific ways of managing training, science, technology and innovation. Research reveals that new conceptions, methodologies, tools, work systems have emerged that have served to consolidate higher education-government-local development links. The results of the research also enrich the theory and practice of local development in Cuba, emphasizing the importance of human, technological and institutional capacity building.
