Amidst the growth of a conservative neoliberal model in the current Brazilian public agenda, Popular Education and Health (EPS) presents itself as a possibility for the production of experiences directed to the constitution of health as a right; moreover, it is also committed to the development of people's role in the search for good living and for the critical confrontation with social determinations of health. The present article addresses EPS in formative processes, their challenges and perspectives. Centrally, it problematizes aspects such as: criticality in the movements and practices of EPS; the critical and mobilizing processes of protagonism; network action and the articulation of the struggle of movements and EPS practices. It is expected that these reflections will contribute to the debate on EPS and its role as a theoretical and methodological referential for training in the health area.
