The current, multicultural and dynamic global context requires specific competences in health professionals, which must be deployed in order to build a culturally relevant therapeutic link. The objective of this article was to present the advantages of simulation as a teaching-learning strategy concerning cultural competences in students from the health area, through different experiences carried out in Europe and North America. The advantages and disadvantages of the strategy were systematized, and the necessary considerations were proposed that should be incorporated into the teaching-learning experiences of cultural competences implemented in new educational settings and spaces. The authors recognize the potentialities of simulation, which must be taken into account to achieve the development of cultural competences in higher education students from the health area. The implementation and adaptation of simulation processes in cultural competences are concluded to require extensive literature reviews, together with having interdisciplinary teams and having professors trained in that particular teaching and learning strategy, which allow such processes to be executed successfully.

Palabras clave : simulation; cultural competence; students from the health area.
