The article starts from the diagnosis that the notion of collaboration has become central in the debate about interprofessional education in the health field, yet it remains inadequately grounded and clarified in its pedagogical sense. In light of this, it seeks to present an innovative pedagogical foundation for the training of health professionals, based on a hermeneutic interpretation of the notion of collaboration. Grounded in a bibliographic research, it first revisits the literature on Interprofessional Health Education to identify the underlying meaning of the notion of collaboration. Next, drawing on Gadamer’s work, the notion of dialogue is reconstructed in a hermeneutic sense. Finally, it aims to show how the notion of dialogue in a hermeneutic sense can provide a new (and innovative) meaning to the notion of collaboration, transforming it into a pedagogical foundation for the education and professional practice in health. It concludes that there is a formative gain in understanding collaboration as dialogue.
