PERSPECTIVES

The present work is an approach to the key factors in the design of participatory processes. It is intended to generate a conceptual model for participatory dynamics. This analysis is part of an ongoing investigation where several participatory processes and the quality of the generated public spaces are studied.
The factors analyzed are the perception of people who take part in a participatory design process to understand how they influence the perception of space. The perception of the people who use a space is fundamental to its quality. Only positive perceptions can help improve the quality of public spaces by generating sustainable cities.

Keywords: Citizen participation, public space, Co-design, sustainable cities, participatory processes, key factors, quality.
