Abstract
This article aims to reflect on a strategy of the use of the knowledge of local health services managers in Rosário (Argentina), through the articulation of research and training processes of local health services managers with the processes of political and institutional changes in the organization of the health services system. The creation of the conditions for the integration demanded considerable efforts of adaptation: changes of the involved actors were conducted to facilitate the legitimacy and the communication between the academy and the health services, new contends were developed and methodologies were adapted to the prevailing problems, besides the development of active strategies for publicizing researches as of a wide range of workers. The levels of the needed flexibility and the magnitude of the invested efforts by the producers and also by the users of the knowledge should be interpreted under the context of the political complexity that permeates the health systems in Latin America, where the services management influences not only the knowledge, in terms of resources distribution (power and money), but also the significant outcomes offered to the population.
