“… Lack of familiarity with architectural language (Chbaly, 2021, 2022; Luck, 2003). Difficulty in quantifying graphic representations (Lee, 2008) and lack of understanding of design and construction issues (Siva & London, 2009). User participants themselves acknowledge their difficulty in understanding certain aspects and may not feel sufficiently competent or creative to make valid proposals (Lundmark, 2018). Some participants feel so disempowered that they prefer not to participate and want no responsibility for the outcome of the project (Maier, 2001).…”

“…Since the 1970s, and more especially the 1990s, theory and practice have increasingly considered the users of these objects and their experience and lifestyle (Sanders & Stappers, 2008). In the past few decades, user participation has become common and even unavoidable in many fields (Lundmark, 2018). The idea is that user experience can help shape a better, more acceptable, more usable, and more profitable project (Lehmann & Colomb, 2020).…”

RETRACTED: Empowering Users as a Principle of Construction Project Management

This systematic literature review aims to identify and compare the main participative approaches to empowering users in construction projects. Whereas different approaches are mobilized, findings suggest that research on project management has focused primarily on sponsors, who are in a position to control project resources, with users often being overlooked. This lack of involvement creates gaps between user expectations and delivered construction projects. The review therefore finds that, on principle and to assure added value, project managers should consider implementing a user-empowering approach right from the planning stage. Guidelines for practical considerations for a participative approach to project management are suggested.

“…Si bien sus raíces pueden ubicarse en la arquitectura escandinava de los años setenta (Bjögvinsson et al, 2012), es en las últimas décadas donde más se involucra a futuros usuarios en la creación de un producto o servicio. Esta forma de diseñar, que involucra en el proceso creativo a quienes van a ser afectados por el producto diseñado (Lundmark, 2018), ha emergido como una tendencia cada vez más fuerte en los ámbitos del diseño, particularmente en el campo de desarrollos tecnológicos (Robertson y Simonsen, 2012;Sanders y Stappers, 2008;).…”

Desde inicios de este siglo una corriente de los videojuegos serios, denominada en este texto como videojuegos críticos, se ha concentrado en usar estos artefactos como una herramienta para comprender problemas sociales, sin embargo, para aprender sobre la capacidad del videojuego para comunicar ideas sobre nuestra realidad social es necesario saber cómo diseñarlos. Aunque el diseño participativo es una práctica creciente en el diseño de dispositivos tecnológicos, experiencias previas han señalado algunas dificultades de esta metodología para el diseño de videojuegos serios. Este artículo argumenta que para el caso de los videojuegos críticos, este enfoque permite ilustrar relaciones de poder y darle voz a actores desplazados del discurso de los medios de comunicación tradicionales. Se presenta el desarrollo de un videojuego sobre acoso sexual en transporte público como estudio de caso, desarrollado por un equipo de profesionales expertos en conjunto con colectivos feministas y víctimas de acoso. Bajo una perspectiva de investigación-creación, se analiza el proceso de diseño seguido y los hallazgos que emergieron durante su desarrollo y después de su lanzamiento, se ilustran los conceptos de videojuego crítico como un tipo de videojuego serio, se describe el problema de acoso sexual en el marco se discusiones en el ciberfeminismo, y se explica el desarrollo metodológico del diseño del videojuego señalado. Se sugieren el grupo focal y talleres creativos como herramientas de diseño y se señalan algunos de los aspectos más importantes para el desarrollo de un videojuego serio desde esta perspectiva.

“…However, the real benefits of following participatory design appear to lie not only in the outcomes but also in its processes. Lundmark (2017) emphasizes the participants' experience in the participatory design process, beyond considering it as a design method or technique. Since participatory design invites diverse people to share their ideas, it provides an opportunity to interact with the wider community.…”

“…The practice of encouraging participation of users or stakeholders is increasingly common in various development projects (Halskov & Hansen, 2015), including urban planning and landscape architecture (Toker, 2007). The definition of participation varies from the implicit goals of 'involving users' to more elaborate ideas of 'participation as the primary aspect of participatory design' (Lundmark, 2017). Most urban spaces are designed and planned by the landscape architect and urban planners, but not always accompanied by community participation.…”

<p>Urban communities face risks of disintegration and segregation as a consequence of globalised migration processes towards urban environments. Linking social and cultural components with environmental and economic dimensions becomes the goal of all the disciplines that aim to shape more sustainable urban environments. Solutions require interdisciplinary approaches and the use of a complex array of tools. One of these tools is the implementation of community gardening, which provides a wide range of advantages for creating more inclusive spaces and integrated communities. Since food is strongly related to the values and identities of any cultural group, it can be used as a medium to promote social inclusion in the context of urban multicultural societies. By bringing people together into specific urban sites, food production can be integrated in multifunctional spaces while addressing social, economic and ecological goals. The goal of this research is to assess different approaches to urban agriculture by analysing three existing community gardens located in Newtown, a suburb of Wellington, New Zealand. As a context for developing research, Newtown offers different approaches to urban farming and is really valuable for observing current trends of socialization in diverse and multicultural societies. All three spaces are located on public land owned by Wellington City Council and confined to a small, complex and progressively denser urban area. The developed analysis was focused on social, cultural and physical dimensions, combining community engagement with different techniques of spatial assessment. At the same time, a detailed investigation of each community garden was conducted with comparative analysis methodologies. This multidirectional setting of the analysis was established for extracting from the case studies both specific and typological knowledge. Each site was analysed and categorised under three broad themes: people, space and food. The analysis revealed that all three case studies had really different spatial settings, different approaches to food production and varying profiles of supportive communities. The main differences identified were demographics, values, objectives, internal organization, appropriation and perception of the space. The community gardens were approached as case studies for developing design research. Following participatory design processes with the different communities, the knowledge gained from the analysis was used for proposing changes in the physical environment. The end goal of the design research was to improve the capacity of the spaces to facilitate social inclusiveness. In order to generate tangible changes, a range of small, strategic and feasible spatial interventions were explored. The smallness of the proposed interventions facilitate implementation by reducing time frames, technical resources, funding needs and legal processes, working within the community´s own realm. These small interventions are expected to be implemented over time as part of an ongoing collaboration between the different communities, the university and the local council. The applied research methodology showcases the capacity of universities to develop civic engagement by working with real communities that have concrete needs and face overall threats of disintegration and segregation.</p>
