What are the Replicability Roadmaps
The aim of the Roadmaps is to provide guidance and resources for policymakers, public servants, and SSE practitioners in the Mediterranean wishing to replicate similar social innovation and co-production models and initiatives in other contexts and territories.
A total of 5 Roadmaps, one for each good practice identified from MedTOWN, MoreThanAJob, MedUP!, IESS! and RUWOMED projects, were elaborated by ARCO – Action Research for CO-development, under the MedRiSSE project.
Each Roadmap was built upon the results of the replicability assessment based on the evaluation framework elaborated by ARCO following a thorough literature review on replication and scalability methods on social innovations. The framework is grounded on a conceptual and interpretative framework based on the Sustainable Human Development paradigm and Capability Approach perspective (Sen; 1985,1999) which frames the Social and Solidarity Economy with a territorial ecosystem perspective. The assessments were primarily based on the desk review of project documents and materials, as well as information and insights collected during the semi-structured interviews carried out with key informants of the good practices.
IES! Roadmap - Setting up a Social and Solidarity multi-service territorial support centre: CitESS model
The Roadmap was elaborated within the framework of the ENI CBC Med MedRiSSE project and it analyses the pilot experience of the CitESS pole established in the Tunisian Governorate of Mahdia under the EU funded IESS! project (2014-2018). CitESS proves to be a positive model to foster an enabling, supporting, and synergistic territorial ecosystem for the development of the local Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) and the promotion of public-private collaboration for the benefit of the community. The aim of the CitESS is to create a common and collaborative territorial platform which pools together and catalysises the available public, private and civil society actors, resources and initiatives to offer integrated and comprehensive support to entrepreneurs and SSE actors.
MedTOWN Roadmap - Piloting socially innovative public welfare programmes: MedTOWN local digital complementary currency
The Roadmap was elaborated within the framework of the ENI CBC Med MedRiSSE project (Replicable Innovations of SSE in the provision of services and creation of decent jobs in the post covid-19 crisis recovery) and it analyses the experience of a local complementary currency initiative in Cerro Amate District (Seville, Spain) which was piloted within the European funded MedTOWN project (“Co-producing social policies with SSE actors to fight poverty, inequality and social exclusion”; 2019-2023) implemented in Spain, Greece, Palestine, Jordan, Tunisia, and Portugal.
The elaborated local and digital complementary currency model proves to be a significant socially innovative practice to deliver and improve local public services (municipal cash assistance programmes for low-income citizens, in this case) through a public-private co-production approach. The experience remarkably marked a sound and disruptive innovation of traditional public welfare schemes, as well as traditional monetary and financial systems. Moreover, it was the first public-led local currency relying on electronic money under Spanish and EU legal frameworks.
Multi-actor and multi-level collaboration for Social Enterprises’ impact growth: Pair to Grow – Coach to Grow programme
Incentive schemes for public-private co-production of SSE support services: MoreThanAJob subgrant mechanism
Public-private collaboration for comprehensive support to rural value chains and women empowerment: Consume Palestine Strategy
