To help societal actors navigate in their development, support, or studies of social innovation, models that illustrate and map ecosystems can be useful. These models help clarify the framework conditions that foster or hinder innovative solutions to societal challenges, and can be valuable when mapping, connecting and establishing regional ecosystems for social innovation.

The overall aim of the lab is to strengthen regional and local support for social innovation and build on examples from Spain, Sweden, Portugal and France. In the lab, we will share and discuss key takeaways for social innovation ecosystem models.

The lab’s intended target group is everyone who wants to be involved and support social innovation by exchanging reflections and perspectives in transnational discussions.

Welcome to this lab, where we co-create support for regional ecosystems for social innovation!
