The final gallery returns to the museum’s core aim: not only to describe traditional medicine and its context but also to encourage thoughtful reflection. It presents future scenarios for different social actors: healers, plant gatherers, homemakers, doctors, pharmacists, and researchers. The realm of traditional healers is explored through a photographic collage, prompting questions about their future and the importance of conditions that support the transmission of their knowledge—such as equitable access to services and resources.

For plant gatherers and suppliers, their future depends on the development of a national pharmaceutical industry, which has yet to establish itself with a regulated and self-sufficient production base. Their precarious situation is compounded by the fact that Mexico’s medicinal flora is still not fully understood in agronomic or ecological terms.

Homemakers who practice self-care and household medicine face a scenario marked by social subordination and limited decision-making power regarding their own health. Finally, the exhibit turns to the roles of physicians, pharmacists, and researchers within biomedicine, asking whether medical institutions in Mexico have the openness and capacity to study traditional practices with objectivity and innovation—practices that continue to be part of everyday life for many Mexicans.
