Abstract

Taking into account the importance that is currently granted to Herbal and Folk Medicine, a project of improvement is being developed for its education in medical education in Villa Clara, both undergraduate and postgraduate, involving specialists and other professionals. Its purpose is to expand its foundations and utilities to include them in the different programs and impart them in practical classes, through the recognition of medicinal plants planted in a botanical garden within the institution and its different forms of preparation. The objective of this research paper is to disseminate aspects related to its methodological design in order to sensitize professors and students in the research and knowledge of phytotherapy and other pillars of this millenary medicine.
