Abstract
Our Latin American environments have become scenarios of violence installed from the institutional and state spheres. Blatant corruption, policies of privilege for the few and exclusion for the many, poverty and discrimination, among many other conflicts that burden us. Discomfort in the face of pettiness and the power of some groups to the detriment of the majority. In addition, the feeling of having lost the path that must be traveled to build individual and community flourishing. It is necessary to turn our gaze to elements that humanize us, that place sciences, art, philosophy, on the way to search for a horizon that generates communities that defend the spaces that correspond to human development. Philosophy today. An interdisciplinary approach to the human advocates for the permanent discovery that philosophy makes of human nature, yearns to debate elements so that society becomes interested in that which is not common ground: emotions, senses, languages and the yearning for openness to dialogue.
