Introduction: In Higher Education, the teaching process is developed to meet the demands that society places on professional training. Didactics have a scientific nature, supported by philosophical, sociological, epistemological, and psychological positions, allowing for the approach to the Social Determinants of Health, which require systemic understanding and innovative solutions. The objective of this study was to justify the didactic approach to the Social Determinants of Health in medical science degree programs.
Methods: A qualitative research was carried out where theoretical and empirical methods were used to obtain information.
Results: Didactics are developed throughout the teaching-learning process and systematically address the social development of new generations. It enables students to develop a Health Situation Analysis, systematically addressing the population distribution of opportunities for a healthy life, capturing social inequalities in health and identifying mechanisms that produce inequity, informing public policy decisions and evaluating the impact of population interventions, taking a stand for health equity and social justice, and critically examining everyday paradigms and practices.
Conclusions: Didactics, social determinants of health, analysis of the health situation.
