From this position the need arises to ask ourselves about how to transform a social problem into a conceptual - epistemological problem. Conceiving social research as a process that involves taking a series of decisions and carrying out certain practices, we highlight its value as a means of knowing, explaining, describing, analyzing and understanding. The epistemological approach builds the field and the intervention, so that making research a reflective work is essential. In our interest to work from the "situated knowledge" developed by Haraway (1991), we decided to explicitly assume a point of view to look at reality and recognize, at the same time, that there is no knowledge that is capable of reflecting a neutral reality. In this presentation we will try to carry out a critical analysis of a research experience, its theoretical problematization and the emerging ones arising from reflective activity in the field from the researchers' perspective, as well as its scope as tools for social intervention. En nuestra experiencia en el abordaje de las temáticas de envejecimiento femenino, salud y cuidados, hemos asumido una perspectiva de género en tanto categoría analítica que permite dar cuenta de la construcción cultural y social de los géneros. A partir de este posicionamiento surge la necesidad de interrogarse acerca de cómo transformar un problema social en un problema conceptual - epistemológico. Concibiendo a la investigación social como un proceso que implica asumir la toma de una serie de decisiones y la realización de determinadas prácticas, destacamos su valor como medio para conocer, explicar, describir, analizar y comprender. El enfoque epistemológico construye el campo y la intervención, de modo que hacer de la investigación un trabajo reflexivo resulta fundamental. En nuestro interés por trabajar desde el “conocimiento situado” desarrollado por Haraway (1991), decidimos asumir explícitamente un punto de vista para mirar la realidad y reconocer, al mismo tiempo, que no existe un conocimiento que sea capaz de reflejar una realidad neutra. En esta presentación intentaremos realizar un análisis crítico de una experiencia de investigación, su problematización teórica y los emergentes surgidos de la actividad reflexiva en el campo desde la perspectiva de las investigadoras, así como sus alcances en tanto conformación de herramientas en la intervención social.
