MAZZOTTI PABELLO, Giovanna M.  and  NAVA-NASUPCIALY, Kay Nicté. A methodology of shared labor: Rethinking ourselves from the actions in school gardens. LiminaR [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.2, e929.  Epub Nov 18, 2022. ISSN 2007-8900.  https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v20i2.929.

This article outlines an approach that weaves ontological and epistemic elements with a method to propose a potential participatory approach methodology. This methodology would reveal the experiences of self-managed organizations with interests different to those of modern organizations, and would strengthen those processes. Within these organizations, an ethos prevails of changing values tied to an ethic of reciprocity and responsibility towards others, and of enlarging the spaces encountered in life. To this end, we analyze the experience of the Red de Huertos Educativos y Comunitarios [Network of Educational and Community Gardens] of Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico, based on an analysis of the place where the research was undertaken. This led to examining the diverse decisions and methodological reflections that occurred in order to jointly construct categories of analysis.

Keywords : participatory methodology; social research; social organizations; self-management.
