Abstract

We present this paper, which is the result of reflections on the path taken by our working group, which we believe could also provide assistance to other groups in­terested in taking similar paths. This re­view has allowed us to identify a route which, having its beginnings in the field of Science Education, has taken us into areas we considered, in the first instance, to be represented by Popular Education in Natural Science, Environment and Health. We also share those experienc­es in research and teaching that have en-abled us to follow our particular theoreti­cal and methodological course of action. These experiences involve diverse people with whom we put forth each of the ideas and proposals implemented and who also think, create, learn, decide and carry out the shared decisions. Our account is just one among many possible stories.
