About the event
Come and join us to discuss strategies for enhancing community engagement and social innovation, and to learn more about the HECSOs project (Higher Education and Civil Society Organizations together for Community Engagement), coordinated by the University of Turin. Over the past three years, this initiative has empowered European universities to forge deep, sustainable connections with Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to drive social innovation and socio-economic inclusion across the EU.
What to Expect
This meeting will showcase the impactful work of a consortium of eight dedicated partners (University of Turin, S-nodi, Universidad Carlos 3 Madrid, Synthesis, Caritas Wien, University of Thessaly, Politehnica University of Bucharest, Mind 2 Innovate) supported by a European CSO network and additional associated partners. Together, we have developed innovative, evidence-based models and training programs, co-designed skill frameworks, and crafted policy guidelines that form a solid foundation for impactful community engagement.
