Abstract: Abstract This research unveils the main good practices used by the Valdivian Coastal Reservation Park, which have led it to be one of the most interesting examples of conservation of Valdivian woodland ecosystems, promoted by private individuals in Chile. The outcomes of the investigation show a gradual change of social perception, on how to use the forest resources, that used to have the local communities adjacent to the park, who in the beginning (2003) had an extractive resources vision, stating today (2012) a more sustainable vision of how to use those resources, empirically demonstrating for the Chilean case, that a period no less of 10 years of support are needed for a community to achieve a collective internalization of the firsts concepts of good practices as a collective social benefit of economic, social and environmental implications.
