According to the evolution of the evaluation processes the article proposes the definition and the use of a participatory multicriteria model in order to assess different options of territorial strategic plan in the Trentino Region (Italy). The methodology proposed has been defined with the aim of considering the followings issues: a) the definition of development options consistent with the instances of conservation of high quality landscape values; b) the development of an evaluation process according to cognitive, normative and instrumental purposes; c) the participation to decision making processes as a crucial requirement for enlarging the awareness about the territorial development and its effects.
