The Yahuarcaca lake system in Leticia, Amazonas, Colombia has been affected by a socio-environmental conflict due to overexploitation of fishing resources and changes in the management of the floodable forest and lakes linked to the Yahuarcaca stream. In 2003, a knowledge-sharing dialogue was initiated between traditional ecological indigenous people and scientists to find solutions to the problem. This research aims to demonstrate how the La Tika organization serves as an environmental and territorial governance strategy for the Tikuna, Kokama, and Yagua indigenous communities. Through community and co-management of common-use fishing resources with state institutions such as the National Aquaculture and Fishing Authority (AUNAP), the organization has positively impacted the aquatic ecosystem and social welfare. The study is based on the Social-Ecological Systems (SES) and the Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework by Elinor Ostrom and traditional knowledge of Fikret Berkes. As a result, the indigenous fishermen's organization was established and recognized nationally for its role in environmental governance and its impact on territorial identity, marking a significant milestone in the Colombian Amazon.
