The online Consultation Workshop to present and co-design the ISEC Hub took place on Tuesday 26th of March. The Innovative Sustainable Economy Mission met with the Hub Ambassadors to share ideas and get their feedback. The meeting brought together 36 participants from different regions and various backgrounds.
During the Consultation Workshop the Gov4Innovation team emphasised the rational behind the Hub. It will be the meeting place between quadruple Helix of Mediterranean stakeholders, Mission actors (TCP-IDP governance projects, TPs-Community of Practice, Associated Partners and more) and external actors beyond the Programme, from the North, East, West, and South Mediterranean.
Then, four session started dedicated to the four pillars underpinning the Hub: Connect, Learn, Share, Collaborate.
- Pillar Connect aims at bringing together like-minded people within the Mediterranean critical mass following the Mission
- Pillar Learn aims at showcasing existing innovative tools, solutions and policy approaches to drive innovation in Mediterranean territories
- Pillar Share aims at spreading relevant news, institutional developments, events and collaboration opportunities
- Pillar Collaborate aims at bridging cooperation with other stakeholders to exchange on territorial challenges and other collaboration prospects.
The activity will see the engagement of the Conference of Periheral Maritime Regions (CPMR), Adriatic Ionian Euroregion, Mediterranean Information Office for the Environment, Culture and Sustainable Development (MIO-ECSDE), Universitat de Vic-Universitat Central de Catalunya (UVIC-UCC), and Emilia-Romagna Region that will act in strong synergy.
