The recently discovered material Co3Sn2S2 shows an impressive behavior of the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) conductivity driven by the interplay between ferromagnetism in the z direction and antiferromagnetism in the xy plane. Motivated by these facts, first we build and study a spin-1/2 model to describe the magnetism of Co atoms on the kagome planes. Then, we include conduction electrons which are coupled to the spin-1/2's through a strong Hund's coupling. The spin-orbit coupling results in topological low-energy bands. For 2/3 on-site occupancy, we find a topological transition from a QAH ferromagnetic insulating phase with Chern number one to a quantum spin Hall (QSH) antiferromagnetic phase. The QAH phase is metallic when slightly changing the on-site occupancy. To account for temperature effects, we include fluctuations in the direction of the Hund's coupling. We show how the Hall conductivity can now smoothly evolve when spins develop a 120 degrees antiferromagnetism in the xy plane and can synchronize with the ferromagnetic fraction.
