INTRODUCTION. The phenomenological approach involves constant exploration. To this end, it is essential for the research team to review the pre-concepts that are at work in relation to the object of study. The epoché has a fundamental role in understanding the political participation of women and young people. The process of the constant revision of ideas and prejudices is the central part of phenomenological research.
METHOD. The four phases of the research process are presented. The focus is then placed on the first part of the second phase, specifically on the research team's experience of political participation. The reflections on the experiences of the team members are based on stories, open questions and meetings on the issue of political participatio.
RESULTS and DISCUSSION. The ideas and prejudices of the research team intervene in the phenomenological process; making them visible is necessary in order to gointo the essentials without categorizing the lived experience from the theoretical point of view. It also requires an awareness of the team's prejudices and stereotypes regarding the phenomenon under study.
