In this article we present the preliminary results from the proyect named "Representations of participation in health field of teenager users of health public system of CABA". Results show that representations of participation in health field of teenager users are still in process of construction because participation in health is an object that is difficult to aprehend and also worthless for teenagers according to their peripheral position as agents in health field. Participation related to health/illness process takes place in personal, familiar and institutional levels of health field. Participation in community level relies on popular organizations which make the teenagers feel that they are part of their community and therefore they generate feelings towards their partners and to the adults that guide them through the participation process. We did not find cases of real participation based on teenagers needs.
