Methodology: Methodological, qualitative study based on the assumptions of Polit and Beck and conducted with older people residing in the community. The data were analyzed according to Bardin’s content analysis methodology. Results: The participants were actively involved. They reflected on each step and contributed to enhancing the understanding of the information. This collaborative process results in a guide for ESC co-creation and co-validation. Conclusion: The methodology proved effective in involving citizens in the ESC co-creation, promoting health literacy and increasing the social relevance of scientific research. The guide can be replicated and used by other professionals and researchers.
