Abstract

Introduction. The health crisis (Covid19) has been a global challenge in the field of health, its impact on anthropogenic activities is undeniable, it is important to note that the pandemic could only be contained through multidisciplinary work. Multidisciplinarity and the mastery of knowledge (Morín E., 1999; Delors, 2013), form a robust framework to address complex problems. It is necessary to review the available information, in order to identify where we failed, what we got right, and what adjustments and innovations are necessary. The objective of this research is to search for evidence that supports the usefulness of multidisciplinarity and knowledge in the solution of complex problems. Methodology: The Google Scholar search engine was used, selecting complete texts, free of charge, from the period 2022 to 2024, with the keywords: multidisciplinarity, educational knowledge, knowing how to be, knowing how to learn, knowing how to do, knowing how to live with others, pandemic, confinement, medicine, and Covid 19. The documents that were obtained were analyzed, identifying evidence of multidisciplinarity.  Duplicate papers, or without free access or that did not deal directly with multidisciplinarity, were discarded. Results: The search yielded 41 results, we selected those that consistently showed evidence of Multidisciplinarity, finding 21 enriching experiences even in very complex scenarios, highlighting that skills and abilities are required, as a whole they represent Knowledge and these are essential to advance towards multidisciplinary collaboration. Conclusions: Since the last century, the teaching of knowledge for the global world has been promoted and educational centers have promoted it, the examination of such learning was not in writing, the exam was the reality, the lesson shows us that only with multidisciplinary collaboration was it possible to contain the pandemic.
