This article aims to show how it is possible to rescue the use of the technique to place it at the
service of citizens. The goal is to show that citizens can design and apply instruments that allow
the evaluation of sustainable development in the operation of public services, thus guaranteeing
that they investigate and evaluate what concerns and affects them. It is intended to present a
vision that allows breaking the inertia where the instrument is more valuable than the population
which will be directly affected by the results that the instrument throws. The research is supported by a participatory design that uses the survey as a pretext to
generate participation in the design of indicators for the evaluation of sustainable environmental
management. The results are presented comparing the general indicators versus indicators
developed and applied by a group of citizens. As a general conclusion, it is stated that, although
the problems of a community can be considered as technical, they rest on beliefs, experiences
and human learning, so that knowledge of citizenship must be taken into consideration when
evaluating, for this case, the impact of environmental management.
