Training regional agents on social innovation and evaluating ten experiences are the main objectives of the process

Elhuyar Aholkularitza, in collaboration with the Beterri Development Agency, has launched a project to work on social innovation in the Beterri region. The initiative has been named Betetzea, as it aims to be a process of social innovation in the region of Beterri. The project will be subsidized by the Department of Innovation, Rural Development and Tourism of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa.

The main objective of the process is to increase the capacity of social innovation of the agents of the region and to improve the articulation between them in order to be able to give more appropriate answers to the social challenges of the region in the future. It is about facilitating a learning process with the agents of the region to strengthen relations between agents, create new networks of collaboration, reflect jointly on the direction of the future and promote a sustainable dynamic in the field of social innovation in the region.

This learning process will have two areas of work: on the one hand, ten projects of the agents of the region will be evaluated through a tool and methodology developed by Elhuyar Aholkularitza, and on the other, five working sessions or meetings will be organized between March and June.
