The European Landscape Convention states that it is vital for citizens and the Administration to participate together in the decisions affecting the protection, management and planning of the landscape. It establishes that participatory processes must be encouraged in order to make this possible. However, in the area of landscape management and planning, there is not as yet a participatory methodology that has been unanimously recognised or even tried out. Therefore, public participation in the landscape catalogues of Catalonia can be regarded as a pioneering experiment. This gives a special interest to the present publication, Landscape and public participation, being the first volume of the new series "Documents", with a shorter and more agile format than the "Plecs de Paisatge" series. The text describes and evaluates the tools that have been used, establishing key elements that must be taken into account when carrying out a participatory process of this kind.
