The research and dialogical extension allowed the construction of the Technical Project to create an Agroecology fair atLavras Federal University - UFLA. From the peasants demands who are at the beginning of the social organization process, the central question emerged that made possible dialogues with the University Extension and the University's Social Function.The main objective was to highlight the challenges and potentialities for creating an agroecological fair at UFLA through the construction of a technical project with peasants from rural communities in Lavras.As research methodology we used the action research and the methodological procedures were documentary research, bibliographical research and pedagogical workshops.During the process some potentialities were highlighted: the start of dialogues with a support network, the diversity of production of the project's actors, as well as initial understandings of technical viability and ecological, social, financial and solidarity dimensions. From an initial market survey conducted at UFLA by a research and extension group supported by the peasants in question, we also noted the interest of the academic community in holding an agroecological fair.We understand that the challenges were present throughout the course and were (des)construct the spaces; understand the times and dynamics of the subjects and the university, work across themes, initiate dialogues between sectors inside and outside the university based on the University Extension guidelines.Finally, we learned and supported a process that involved several actors(s) and advocated for the interaction between common sense and scientific sense, without overlapping.
