ABSTRACT Objective: To discuss the phase of reinterpretation of objective reality of the Theory of Praxis Intervention of Nursing in Collective Health (Tipesc), in search of the praxis that it promotes. Method: Analysis of interventions in projects that are based on Tipesc and its results, since the 1990s. Results: Developed and implemented projects show that praxis is the way to achieve the aimed changes. Conclusion: We concluded that Tipesc is currently the explanatory and interventional theory, since it is grounded on its theoretical bases, which arise from philosophical bases of dialectical and historical materialism.
