This presentation will discuss how the World Café method can be used to analyze data interactively together with users, in this case, organizers of senior camps. As part of the Senior Camp Study we were particularly interested in ways of “doing age” and how discourses on age influenced the organization of senior camps. The World Café was arranged with two main purposes: 1) involve users to discuss preliminary findings to validate and problematize the results; 2) use the discussions recorded during the World Café session as data to deepen the analysis. We experience that combining those two purposes was a challenge in the sense that the users were more keen on validating the results and explaining their standpoint than problematize around conceptions of age. We will elaborate and discuss this further in our presentation and also share our experiences of involving users in this stage of the research process.
