Most participatory projects were short-term, siloed innovations, not institutional transformations. And in several cases, the projects constituted "empowerment lite" for participants rather than true collaboration, co-creation, or transformation.

In some ways, a design lab can be thought of as “participatory research and testing.”. The next step in the process was for participants to evaluate some of the ideas using a 2×2 called the importance/difficulty grid.
