Summary:This study, conducted in Trois-Rivières since 2020, focuses on participatory action research (PAR) and natural informal recreation areas (NIRA) in Quebec. NIRA characterized by spontaneous vegetation in urban areas, are popular recreational spots for their proximity and social/ecological benefits. The research involves both « engaged citizen » researchers and « citizen co-researchers » using a co-creation approach inspired by living labs. Data collection tools include literature reviews, online surveys, artistic co-creation workshops, citizen walks, and thematic workshops. The methodology aims to establish a new research niche on NIRA and integrate them into local communities. The conclusion highlights the methodical nature of the research, transparency in the positions of engaged researchers and citizens, while acknowledging challenges in transferring results to other territories.
