Atlantic-Social-Lab
Cooperação Atlântica para a promoção da inovação social
Atlantic Social Lab will contribute to the creation of a Social Innovation Atlantic Ecosystem that shall result in the implementation of new ways and solutions to drive social Innovation in the public sector, in the private sector and in NGOs, thanks to transnational cooperation. The project will promote integral strategies and social innovation plans to give response to the new challenges and opportunities within the Atlantic Area society.
Atlantic Social Lab aims to develop and promote social innovation approaches and methods to give response to key growing social issues of the Atlantic Area, both within citizens, third sector and social enterprises as well as the public sector. Through an intensive transnational cooperation, the partners will implement and test small probing interventions to finally scale them up in the following areas: i) Social innovation & welfare services, ii) Social innovation & active public engagement, iii) Green inclusive economy, and iv) Social economy and social responsibility in the private sector. The project will assess the creation of new solutions in the welfare services so as to bring innovative partnerships based on private and non-governmental resources to complement state funding. It will also intend to implement new methods of further citizen engagements (i.e. participative budgeting or open decision making systems) to recognise the importance of the active involvement of citizens to the successful development of the Atlantic regions. In addition, green inclusive economy interventions will be developed to take advantage of the green opportunities to rebuild smart cities. Moreover, social economy and social responsibility in the private sector will be supported to strengthen its role as an engine for social innovation. Insights and results will nourish the creation of the Atlantic Social Innovation Action Plan that will provide transferrable solutions to other Atlantic Areas.
