SUMMARY
Introduction This article aims to show the way in which a social system of minimum dissipation -like the Yumhu of Ixtenco- has the capacity to counteract its entropic levels avoiding reaching thermal death, due to the type of non-formal learning that is developed in this and its way of reproducing. In this regard, Objective was to identify the forms of non-formal learning in the social system of minimum dissipation of the Yumhu of Ixtenco that in a contrasting, dynamic and changing environment has been able to provide the Yumhu adapt and survive in time despite the weakening of its energy potential. Materials and methodsused was qualitative with ethnographic tools applied to seven research subjects. The main Results point to the fact that non-formal learning in the Yumhu system happens under the principles of an indigenous pedagogy of low dissipation, which allows the survival of the system. The main Conclusions are that learning takes place from an inherited base that the Yumhu have used to preserve themselves over time, due to their functioning as a minimal dissipation system, which weakens their energetic potential (such as information) Discussion in proportion to their input flows, which allows them to adapt to their context with minimal energy reaching a stable state.
