Summary: The participation and empowerment of the community in the formation of public policies are little studied, however, the need for State-society integration in Latin America for local development is becoming more valid every day. In this context, the objective of this study is to systematize the process of socio-community intervention towards the formulation of public policies in the field of tourism, as a legitimizing process of socialization between the government, community, and institutions. Methodologically, qualitative research is developed, of interpretative cut, phenomenological method, using a design of systematization of the works in social processes, which allows appropriating the learnings of the experiences lived and share them, in this case, through social management for sustainable tourism in the municipality of Usiacurí (Colombia). The product is the infographic systematization of a process that closes gaps in terms of community empowerment and its link with social development through the formation of public policy, highlighting its contribution to the social sciences through the analysis of behavior, situations, and circumstances of each phase for the legitimization of the participation and decision-making of the community and the State. Concluding that, the active and collaborative participation of the organized community and the State in the formation of public policy favors its legitimization in front of society and this fact shows that management is not neutral.
