Participatory Workshop

Participatory Workshop

Participatory Workshop is a method in design where people who will use or be affected by a product or service work together with designers to create solutions. In the context of co-creation, these workshops often use simple tools like sticky notes, sketches, or quick models so everyone can share ideas, no matter their background. This approach helps gather many viewpoints in a short time and can reveal needs or problems that might not come up in interviews. One practical fact is that using physical objects like building blocks or cards during these workshops can help people express ideas more clearly, especially if they find it hard to explain things with words alone.
