- why we didn't do it? (not lack of time / purpose not strong enough)
- Find a common goal
- A way to work together
- Is the presence necessary?
- politica europea
- relevance - urgency (context)
- to promote a goal or participation as a goal
-> purpose / impact
MACRO - to change the world - MICRO - to solve problems
- participation as a tool
- at the start we think participation only as a tool
now it is not just a tool
I'm not here to change the system, to be a better a person
moving is a good thing
how the process grow - how we grow in the process
change "way of life"
I wouldn't participate for things to be the same
How to unblock and to do something in reality

9/12
1st question: the ONLY way to learn participation is by participating
Many people said that it is not exactly trough because you can also read
about or talk about
- If you do not practice participatory democracy , you do not reallylearn
- Learning participation by participating is not the only way but it isthe best one.
-
If I do not experience participation I do not learn- experimenting and getting experience makes the difference
2nd question: in a participatory process people can chose not to participate
- what it means not to participate?- not all the people participate in the same way- if someone is in the process is a way of participation- Is it?- It is another yet a different way- if you are going for a learning process it is a choice of participation
too
- people can choose not to participate- Absence is not participation- You have to see what is participation- When you do not vote you already participate in a different way- we need to consider that people have different times.. and consider the
time of each other
- everyone has a different way to participate3rd question: In a participatory process it is helpful to have a facilitator
- all we can be facilitators- we can try to create a space where the roles changes in some moment- you might need someone to facilitate but it is not necessary to be one
person
- a facilitator is a catalizator- not educator- if it is a learning process I would agree with the sentence but in other
approaches you might not need a facilitator
- Facilitator if we believe that is helpful I think we might be trappedin an idea of a convenient and accommodate to this.
- leadership without facilitator you can even learn a lot but you need toparticipate
4th question: In the process you can change the goals
- not always- It should be normal to change- you have to keep a safe limit- learning is a goal- Learning what?- it depends if the goals are simple or major- change depends on your main goal- from whom is the goal set at the beginning?- depends also on the environment and the situation- this is not a learning procedure
Leadership within participatory processes
An assessm ent instrum ents and first results
Qu estions of the group
W hat t he role of leadership in part ic ipatory pr ocesses?
W hat governance is needed in Part ic ipato r Processes?
Presentat ion and discussion o f a t ool and group e xercise:a) The group presented the gr id of analysis ( tool wi th di f ferent quest ions to assess inst i tut ions
character ist ics and govern ance features) and the f i rst ideas generated ( inst i tu t ion s stu died);
b ) In order to assess the tool and the ideas around i t s cret ion, the group chal lenged the al lgroup in plenary t o help t hem to app ly the t ool CLEARing Part ic ipat ion case.

Sun in a time of darkness many of us are living. Very good. Specially the ability to work as a group not thinking we must do
something. It was natural. And because of this we also feel like giving to
others (final conference). Very creative situations (talks, options, a lot of
feedback). Good feeling for the next step.
A very special moment, connect to the reality. Thank you. Aside the food that I loved, two moments I appreciate very much: when we
proposed the group to do an exercise and the group proposed another thing; the
interest groups presentations (change of facilitation centre)
Two main aspects: a)Participation happen. We worked and took a lot from theproject; b) We understood the point and we are going deeper than I could
imagine and I would like to do it together, with all of you.
Progress in what we are, where we are and what we want. We developed a rhythm(swimming) and danced. We didnt sunk.
I feel comfortable working in group. Im happy to be here. Everything is moreflexible. Two main moments: the greek participation experiences presentation;
the work in interest groups and progress and deepness achieved in the topic of
interest. My expectations grew along the project. I thank everyone and
specially to the Greeks. Im looking forward to the next seminar
I feel the same. The seminar was the best of the 3 seminars and improved inrelation to the earlier seminars. It was very good not to have time so occupied
and to have time to be together. The godness of the time we spend together.
I spend very good days. The bad face I put in that afternoon is just becausealthough I like everything I felt lost in the second afternoon and Im afraidof not being able to systematize everything .
