نبذة مختصرة : This study aims to understand how, why and for what reason, a group of nurses and History of Nursing researchers chose to create the Brazilian Academy of Nursing History in 2010. This study aimed to describe motivations and expectations of the nurses and researchers in this field as well as to identify the historical circumstances, struggles and political forces involved in the creation of institution. It is observed that the social actors involved in the creation of the entity came from the Research Group "History and Legislation of Nursing" and that political forces and struggles were among researchers in the history of nursing because there were disparate interests in the creation of this entity. Among the contributions of the Academy is the fight for the continuity of teaching nursing history in the universities, and the 2007 Ibero-American Symposium on Nursing History that was the propulsion for its creation.
