The issue of democracy in society is at the heart of our current concerns. Organizations and their information systems are also concerned by this issue. Democracy in organization requires a debate about norms, values and language encapsulated in the information system. Participatory design approaches address this issue by proposing a democratic empowerment for users during design phase of projects. To go further, we propose a structured method to integrate democracy into information system. This method named DEMOS for DEsign Method for demOcratic information System is described and then illustrated by a real experiment provided by a “lifelong training” service at the University.
