Aix-Marseille Université, an active partner in the +RESILIENT project, is organising a unique Living Lab which will welcome some thirty European participants from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Croatia, Slovenia, Greece and France, among others, on the theme: "Promoting social innovation to transform public action". The international educational projects are finally back in the classroom!

From Tuesday 30 November to Thursday 2 December
Aix-en-Provence campus, ALLSH Faculty and INSPE

By organizing this Living Lab, Aix-Marseille Université is setting up a collaborative space and is directly involved in the realization of the different pilot actions of this European project. For three days, the participants will work together to deploy a methodology where citizens, inhabitants and users are considered as key actors in the research and innovation processes.

Highlights of the Living Lab: Valuation of social projects in our territory and social experiments in Europe, round table on the challenges of transforming public policies and transition, reflection on multi-stakeholder processes in the context of a pandemic, collective construction workshops, visit to the Territoire Zéro Chômeurs experiment in Jouques.

+RESILIENT started, within the framework of the Interreg MED programme, on 1 February 2018 under the leadership of the Veneto Region and is due to end on 30 April 2022. It is part of a desire to boost the Mediterranean area through the development of innovative and socially responsible approaches. With a budget of more than 3.5 million euros and a dozen partners from 8 Mediterranean countries (Albania, Croatia, France, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia and Spain), the project aims to increase the social and environmental responsibility of SMEs, to develop the Social Solidarity Economy and to support the labour market. In order to disseminate social innovation on a European scale, it aims to develop public-private partnerships and to transform public intervention.
