From the disciplinary encounter of architecture and urbanism, as well from the interventions in the environments of the popular habitat –especially those of the city outskirts– several discussions have been raised in order to define models, methodologies, strategies and concrete operations to carry out within the territory. However, a better look at the conditions of those territories suggests that the approaches are not the result of a specific formula and, therefore, this vision must be diversified and expanded. This book is the compendium of different reflections from the discipline of architecture and urbanism which advocate for an understanding of the complexity of the territory and its occupation processes, allowing considering alternatives for a concrete intervention of the city outskirts contexts. Through the understanding of participatory design theories, the need for interaction with professionals from other disciplines and other actors in the process is suggested as an alternative for the systematization of participatory design. Thus, generate the necessary tools for the consolidation of interventions and its efficient manifestation. This is how the systematic proposals for reading the territory are highlighted at the time the conceptual intervention intentions and the methodology are presented with the toolbox. In that way, they work as inputs to explore in a concrete way the participatory interdisciplinary design in city outskirts areas stand out.
