The capacity that a human group has to undertake collective actions resulting in the benefit of all their members is conceived as a social capital. I try to expand this concept to the design and management areas of the social policies. Therefore it is taken sides from the idea that it is viable to generate and accumulate social capital from specific projects in a reasonable period. It is assumed that the task of the social manager in this field is to contribute to a virtuous relation between the group social capital and the communitarian social capital. The local space will be the basic unit par excellence where the social capital will be developed. (Cuad CLAEH/GIGA)
