Resumen
VALADEZ-BLANCO, Octavio; MORALES-ZARAGOZA, Nora A. y GONZALEZ-GARCIA, Dulce N.. Catalyzing biocultural and social changes about cancer. Design of transdisciplinary actions against the pandemic. Rev. salud pública [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.3, pp.294-303. Epub 17-Sep-2020. ISSN 0124-0064. https://doi.org/10.15446/rsap.v22n3.87147.
Objective
Design and analyze a transdisciplinary training and organization experience on cancer, where experts from multiple disciplines and actors with different horizons converge on a diagnosis and intervention horizon on multiple scales.
Method
A 140-hour diploma course with more than 60 speakers and 50 relevant actors around cancer was designed and implemented. A 20-hour transversal workshop was developed, using the Design for Transition methods as mediation of collaborative strategies for the construction of diagnoses and interventions in complex and conflict situations.
Results
It was possible to build a series of maps with a common view of stakeholders, concerns, conflicts, root causes, ideal scenarios and potential models of intervention, based on diverse participant's input. The visual resources generated were able to function as guides and structures that made possible the identification of biocultural factors that facilitate or impede implementation of strategies and interventions. Infographic material functioned as transdisciplinary mediations that enabled a diverse political (multiple-actors) and pedagogical (multiple-epistemologies) space to act upon an economic and ecological context (material interdependence of actors and environments).
Conclusion
The Design for Transition methodology catalized transdisciplinary work by enabling cancer experts and social actors interactions. Through visual mediations such as maps, infographics and tables, it was possible to synthesize and use a shared diagnosis and thus advance towards more inclusive interventions that recognize the biocultural complexity of this pandemic.
