In the first months of the project phase, the BuicaSuS team. had intense discussions on the concept of Social Innovation and how to align it in a shared understanding for mapping the situation of the SI ecosystems in the four countries. These deliberations have been contrasted in an expert workshop in mid-October 2021.
The final outcome is a Working paper on concepts and mapping methodology. It is divided into two parts.
- Part one discusses a number of key concepts, namely social innovation, ecosystems, upscaling, the role of the public administration in social innovation and social services.
- Part two defines the mapping methodology that will be rolled out over the coming months, in order to generate the background papers on the country situation.
- The annexes provide the tools, namely questionnaires and the interviews guideline.
