Currently a paradigm change is happening in the collaboration between design and social sciences, it’s a change from a user centered design process to participative experiences. This recent approach requires new ways of thinking, feeling and developing the process. The participative experience isn’t simply a method or a set of methodologies but a new attitude towards people. The inclusion of people, from different backgrounds, is changing the landscape around the design practice, creating new collective creativity domains towards more sustainable ways of living in the future. This dissertation explores some meanings and practices associated with participative experience, clarifying the importance of the organization and prioritization of data during the process, having the assertive choice of the methods and activities as the final objective. From this point of view, the present investigation lead to the creation of a Toolkit. In this Toolkit are shown some of the key factors to consider when planning and evaluating a process that involves different people and experiences. More than translating the process through stages, this toolkit leads designers and design teams to take more conscious decisions when comes to developing a project.
