In the era of digital society, social research must devise innovative and adaptive methodologies in relation to new forms of communication and social interaction. The social distancing measures aimed at containing the spread of COVID-19 have produced the need for social sciences to face new research challenges by making the best possible use of information technology and tools. The researchers' aim is to present an innovative method of remote participatory social research, which can be framed in the context of future studies. This method, called Delphi MIX, has been developed by CNR-Irpps researchers since 2003, and its last adjustment has been designed as a consequence of the coronavirus crisis. Delphi MIX is a method for participatory strategic planning. It can be understood as a political agenda that aims to a desirable and achievable future.
