Applying social participatory methods, the researchers brought together academic centers, public institutions, Regional Chorotega Head Quarter, non-governmental organizations, private enterprises, social and civil organizations, and national and international universities to facilitate the accomplishment of the communities’ participative work plans. Furthermore, the PDICC was enhanced as a horizontal knowledge formation model, consolidating interdisciplinary, intergenerational, and participatory teams. During these years, the relationship between the faculty and the extended network was improved by systematically connecting students from multiple professional disciplines, as well as strengthening the relationship between research, faculty, and the extended network, thus enhancing the communities’ decision-making.
