A participatory process is a sequence of participatory activities (e.g. first filling out a survey, then making proposals, discussing them in face-to-face or virtual meetings, and finally prioritizing them) with the aim of defining and making a decision on a specific topic.
Examples of participatory processes are: a process of electing committee members (where candidatures are first presented, then debated and finally a candidacy is chosen), participatory budgets (where proposals are made, valued economically and voted on with the money available), a strategic planning process, the collaborative drafting of a regulation or norm, the design of an urban space or the production of a public policy plan.

About this process
Tools, theories, and practices for participatory cultural transformation
The RECHARGE project supports public cultural institutions in becoming more participatory and sustainable. This collection of learning materials brings together theoretical foundations, practical methodologies, and hands-on tools developed through the RECHARGE Academy and fieldwork.
Each section is designed to spark reflection, support implementation, and encourage experimentation across different organisational and cultural contexts.
