This paper presents a formative academic experience where undergraduate students of organizational psychology from a Peruvian university do their internship in local microenterprises. They conducted participant observation in order to analyze microenterprises' organizational behavior. By using a university social responsibility approach, the project recognizes microenterprises as the prevailing type of organization in the national economy. Through the linkage of students to the microenterprises, this project deconstructs and decolonizes the hegemonic knowledge traditionally taught in business schools, demonstrating the need to think about organizational knowledge and practices in a way that is situated, critical and shared by all participants. Methodological details and general operative results of this experience are outlined, as a useful pedagogical input in training contexts of the complex and inequitable labor and organizational Latin American framework.
