Thus, the objective is to show the importance of integration in order to expand it beyond the Academic Leagues, but all undergraduate and foster it in other institutions. Method: Partnership between the LAMFA’s education board and actors of residence, such as coordinators, tutors and residents, with the creation of a range of visiting hours of the ligands to the UBS and integration League to weekly classes at the residency program and the promotion of scientific productions. Results and Conclusions: Graduating students could actively participate in the operation of a Basic Health Unit, following clinic visits, home visits and meetings of smoking groups. Furthermore, in classes taught by residents they were theorized topics of great relevance to the practice of MFC in primary care, discussed articles, mostly published in RBMFC (Brazilian Magazine of Family Doctors), besides the analysis of clinical cases.
