ABSTRACT
Participatory evaluation is a democratic and emancipatory proposal, which aims to overcome the normative way of doing health care evaluation. This research took place during an evaluation and training process, along with the project Experiences and Stages in the Reality of the Unified Health System in Florianopolis (SC). It reports the first experience of the workshop held with the group, in the round conversation format and carried out by the participants of the project. The purpose, functionality and priorities of this evaluation time were decided collectively. This writing supports the feasibility of an evaluation that involves the actors beyond the data collection and that is flexible to changes during its development.
