This article aims to propose a conceptual metamodel for trust management, within the context of a support framework for participatory processes, but in an adaptive manner, that serves in different scenarios, weighing the abstraction of the participants in a prior phase of software design. With a qualitative approach, it combines the methodology in the design phase in Model-Driven Development (MDD) with a validation method by a group of experts who endorse the relevance of the topic, with encouraging results regarding the benefits of these methodologies in Software Engineering, also highlighting that these methodologies are worthy of consideration, not only for the participatory theme on which this study is based, but also for other proposals that seek ways to offer adaptive designs, for cases where abstraction is an essential requirement, given that in practice, when applied in different environments, the benefits of MDD come into play, such as the reuse and efficiency of resources, with the aspects that allow managing trust in the various types of electronic participation.
