This article addresses the role played by the organized civil society (OCS) in Peru, Mexico and Colombia in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. The objective was to analyze under a comparative approach the contributions, areas of action and challenges that exist in these countries on the basis of the 5Ps. The study responds to the interpretative paradigm with a qualitative approach to conduct a hermeneutic analysis of the content of the portals of NGOs in Colombia, Mexico and Peru using the Atlas TI. Using a content matrix to collect the data stated in the mission and vision of each of the initiatives analyzed, a series of categories and subcategories were obtained that allowed the reconstruction of word clouds and a Sankey diagram based on the 5Ps of the 2030 Agenda. These results highlight the importance of strengthening the capacities of the OCS through universities to promote citizen participation and foster collaboration among the different actors involved. Among the final considerations, the role of Higher Education Institutions is highlighted as key actors to configure a Governance model with action plans that adapt to the realities of each country, in order to maximize the impact of OCS in the achievement of the 2030 Agenda.
