This article aims to propose a pedagogical intervention grounded in the principles of Universal Design for Learning in the initial training of natural science teachers. This is a qualitative study conducted through a pedagogical intervention consisting of ten training sessions held with six students in a course within a teacher-training program, integrating theoretical study, analysis of practices, planning, and reflection. The results showed that the organization of the intervention contributed to building initial preparedness among the teacher candidates, while highlighting the need to further explore the Universal Design for Learning approach. Although there are limitations regarding the demand for deeper theoretical understanding of the approach and opportunities for experimentation in real teaching contexts, it is concluded that the proposal has educational potential by bridging theoretical foundations and teaching practice.
