Abstract

This article describes the creative and participatory accompaniment for health awareness that was carried out with women from the Community Center of Traditions, Trades and Knowledge in Chiltoyac, Veracruz. Health is a complex state, it requires a transdisciplinary vision to propose pedagogies from a systemic and holistic order, considering women as subjects and not as objects of study. The objective was for them to recognize and appropriate their own bodies as a process of deconstruction of patriarchal-colonialist-capitalist practices in search for health. There were three stages: 1) participant observation, 2) accompaniment in the elaboration of a “Manual of herbal medicine and traditional medicine”, and 3) a Workshop to create a collective dance.
