This research presents an approach towards development strategies linked to the sustainable management of a common access asset in rural territories. The successful reforestation and sustainable conservation of the Manga Manga forest (Morropón, Piura, Peru) by the Manga Manga Agrarian Association allows us to study the factors that make these processes viable from the participation of the surrounding communities. Furthermore, it provides elements to evaluate the need to incorporate a collective and ecological dimension in the capabilities approach to development proposed by Sen (2000), including in the evaluation of development the socio- historical and biophysical structures that frame the human experience. Through process tracing, we approach from a qualitative methodology using household surveys and in-depth interviews. The results of the research provide evidence of the multidimensional role that the “conserved forest“ assumes for the development of capacities of the members of the association, in the generation of founding members and in the following generations. The conserved forest provides ecosystem services, among which the provision of firewood and clean water, climate regulators, temperature, soil formation for agriculture and pest control stand out. These elements constitute the resource base; modify conversion factors and adaptive preferences of the members of the community for the development of capacities that guarantee well-being by overcoming contexts of structural injustice. The case study also makes it possible to discuss the need to incorporate communities in projects for the conservation of common assets such as forests. Especially in contexts of reforestation of secondary forests from communities dedicated to small agriculture. The interviews allow us to recognize that the generation of consensus among the members of the community regarding the advantages of conservation and sustainable use of the common good, as well as defining clear rules of fair appropriation and sharing surveillance are factors that guarantee the sustainability of the process of conservation and sustainable use.
