Its objective was to make a socio-anthropological analysis about the practices and representations around the body and health that were elaborated in a training in medicinal plants, dictated in a town of Sierras Chicas, Córdoba.

Este artículo recupera las apuestas teóricoanalíticas de la investigación etnográfica realizada para mi Trabajo Final de Licenciatura en Antropología (TFL), entre los años 2018 y 2019: un análisis socioantropológico sobre las prácticas y representaciones en torno al cuerpo y la salud que se elaboraban en una formación en plantas medicinales dictada en una localidad de las Sierras Chicas, Córdoba. Se realizaron entrevistas en profundidad a las integrantes, observación participante de los encuentros e indagación de los materiales bibliográficos y audiovisuales allí ofrecidos. Este escrito recupera el análisis de esas prácticas y sentidos en torno a los procesos de salud-enfermedad- atención en donde, desde una postura crítica hacia el saber-poder biomédico, la salud es entendida de manera holística y multidimensional, excediendo la mera ausencia de enfermedad. Vinculado a ello, indaga en torno a las experiencias corporales allí vivenciadas, ligadas al uso y consumo de plantas medicinales. Por último, explora las relaciones efectuadas con otros seres no-humanos, entre ellos, y principalmente, las plantas. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
