Abstract
Objective: To reflect on a research process carried out between the years 2015 and 2016, for the optimization of a museum in the Colombian regional context, specifically in the municipality of Cucaita, Department of Boyaca. Methodology: Through a participating methodology, the communities were a comprehensive and acting part along the process. Results and conclusions: Proposal of a museological approach that, from a critical perspective, interprets the contributions that the so- called new museology provided, applying them to a rural context in Colombia. The process allowed the understanding of the museum investigation field as a possible space for debate around its function, relevance and permanence within communities which, like the farmers community, require referents that strengthen their sociocultural links to be recognized as conscious communities within contemporary dynamics.
