Abstract

This investigation is about a journey that unfolds in the creation of a Pedagogical Classroom. Answer to the question <<How has the Sumak Kawsay (school of life) materialized in El Vivero el Cortijo, where life is given new meaning from the respect of the natural order and care of water?>>. Formulated the definition of the Problem: the paradox that the contemporary world is experiencing, the excessive development of capitalism that calls into question Human life on Earth, which -according to all predictions- is <<threatened with next disappearance>>.

In the course of the pedagogical experience, the life story of Lina María Murcia Castañeda is liked with the Sumak Kawsay School conformation. The Territorial Creative Research Methodology, through its five moments, reveals the inputs that nourish the nascent pedagogical experience.
