It delves into the elements that have characterized the experience of teaching and learning in PHC, the process of building the academic program, the confluence of Public Health and Family Medicine in PHC, the pedagogical orientation of theoretical and practical activities in health care education, the formulation and implementation of improvement plans in health, community health projects and promoting healthy environments in different organizations and communities, while describing the evolution of the process. Conclusions emphasize strategic areas necessary in physicians and other health professionals, competencies necessary to strengthen population health through this kind of programs, stressing the importance of PHC and healthy environments in teaching, researching, and social action in coordination with other sectors related to the initiative.
