This Thesis looks up points of reference for a comprehensive formation of educators in order to think about epistemological basis of transdisciplinarity, which can be linked to the self-formation process. Thus, it was necessary to analyze the epistemological basis of transdisciplinarity that may be related to self-formation; to figure points of reference for integral formation that symbolizes the wholeness of being, to characterize who are transdisciplinary educators and what are their experiences that may be linked to the formation of educators for the wholeness of human being, and to examine the human aspects and existential self-education as an integral part of the transdisciplinary educators. These intentions are supported by the following question: What meanings are embedded in the epistemological basis which need to be understood and perceived in their links with the self-education of the educator? This search is centered on the wholeness idea understood in building of knowledge generated not as a result only from experiences brought from environment to inside, of individual or collective external demands, nevertheless also from inside, from the proper essence of the educator, from his/her interests, needs, values, imagination, intuition, beliefs, knowledge, linking them to his own existentiality. In this approach, I chose to take as reference the experience of CETRANS (Center for Transdisciplinary Studies) and UNIPAZ (International Holistic University). Both institutions, each in its specificity, have focused on rigor, openness and tolerance for considering transdisciplinarity. It is an transdisciplinary qualitative research, from two experiences - a focus group with educators with interdisciplinary formation, and in-depth interview with the formers. The thesis holds the belief that it is possible for the educator, who becomes aware of himself and his life experiences, to make their own hetero-eco-self-formation process up, constituting an experience of be-being-in-the-world-with-others. Thus, the need to set a pedagogical proposal of a general transdisciplinary sef-formation that transcends the subjective aspects, objectives, and interobjectives and intersubjectives of formation. Thereby, this research has served to show that is feasible and possible to build a proposal of transdisciplinar formation based on the self-formation. This requires autonomy, interchange, partnership and expertise and it involves the individual dimension, behavioral, cultural, social and spiritual, which are demands of nowadays society.
