Abstract (English): The editorial focuses on health research as a transformative axis for Latin America, highlighting the book *Step by Step: The ABCs of Health Research* as a pedagogical tool that guides the formulation and development of projects with an ethical, rigorous, and contextualized approach. It emphasizes the need for research to be an essential competency for health professionals, linked to territorial realities, social inequities, and the promotion of health through Primary Health Care (PHC). Additionally, it underscores the importance of the social appropriation of knowledge and the effective communication of results to strengthen community participation and local management. The text also highlights the relevance of connecting academia with health services to address social challenges and promote more equitable and healthier societies. [Extracted from the article]
Abstract (Spanish): El editorial se centra en la investigación en salud como un eje transformador para América Latina, destacando el libro *Paso a paso: el ABC de la investigación en salud* como una herramienta pedagógica que orienta la formulación y desarrollo de proyectos con un enfoque ético, riguroso y contextualizado.

Además, se resalta la importancia de la apropiación social del conocimiento y la comunicación efectiva de los resultados para fortalecer la participación comunitaria y la gestión local. El texto también subraya la relevancia de articular la academia con los servicios de salud para responder a los desafíos sociales y promover sociedades más equitativas y saludables.
