Description
Summary:<p class="Resumen">In the current information society the dissemination and disclosure of scientific knowledge are considered priorities of universities. Despite the importance of these processes, it is recognized that their management is still insufficient to promote local development. The objective of the present work was to systematize the experience accumulated in the improvement of said management by the Municipal University Center Contramaestre. The methodology was based on a participatory action research (PAR), the data were mainly managed through interviews, documentary analysis and participant observation. The main results obtained were the successful development of a postgraduate course specialized in the management of scientific publications in indexed journals and a management strategy for scientific disclosure. It is concluded that a professionalization of university professors in the management of dissemination and disclosure of scientific knowledge favors the promotion of local development.</p>
