Greece

Project partners will support the ESF+ Managing Authority to recognise, systematise, reinforce and institutionalise social innovation as a contextual legislative framework by scaling-up three completed projects that are already recognised as best practice.
At city level, they will develop a platform (likely for Athens) to collect contributions from citizens’ groups, creating a space for collaboration with city authorities.
At regional level, the partners will support the Karditsa Development Agency, which unites small and medium-size organisations to create entrepreneurial opportunities for young, vulnerable and unemployed people.
At national level, the partners will reinforce REBRAIN Greece, a digital portal to collect and process labour market data on needs, skills and opportunities in a rapidly changing labour market, together with launching ten official National Social Innovation Policy Labs.
