This article presents the Time Travel method, an educational method that uses local heritage to reflect on contemporary issues. The goal is to promote learning, social cohesion and contribute to community building. The Time Travel method started in Kalmar, Sweden in the mid-80s and has spread to more than 20 countries around the world. Target groups are schools and local communities. The definition, principles and the three phases (process, event, follow-up) of the Time Travel method are here explained. Examples of Time Travel programs in South Africa, Kenya and Sweden are presented in an extensive way, and the effect on schools and local communities. Finally, achievements and challenges are discussed and some ideas on how to take the Time Travel method and the organization Bridging Ages into the future, also in South America.Resumo: Este artigo apresenta o método Viagem no Tempo, um método educacional que utiliza o patrimônio local para refletir sobre questões contemporâneas. O objetivo é promover a aprendizagem, a coesão social e contribuir para a construção comunitária. O método de Viagem no Tempo começou em Kalmar, Suécia, em meados dos anos 80 e se espalhou para mais de 20 países ao redor do mundo. Os grupos-alvo são escolas e comunidades locais. A definição, os princípios e as três fases (processo, evento, acompanhamento) do método de viagem no tempo são explicados aqui. Exemplos de programações de viagens no tempo na África do Sul, Quênia e Suécia são apresentados de forma extensa e o efeito nas escolas e comunidades locais. Por fim, os resultados e desafios são discutidos e algumas ideias de como levar o método Viagem no Tempo e a organização Bridging Ages para o futuro, também na América do Sul.
