The information was produced by direct observation of intersectoral meetings and interviews with members representing the management, teaching, service and population of the two management forums happening in 2012-2013. The treatment for the analysis of qualitative data was anchored in the operational proposal. The results distinguish the importance of recognizing the roles of each segment. In spite of conflicts, the intersectoral meeting places are important initiatives of teaching-service integration, especially as a possibility to transform them and contribute to reorient practices and the Health education.
