The Provincial Council, upon proposal of the Councillor for Economic Development, Research and Labour, Achille Spinelli, approved the participation of the Autonomous Province of Trento in the European project 3P4SSE, which aims at bridging regional disparities within the European Union in the institutional approach to social and regional cohesion.
The project intends to create a European network of the different existing and active districts in the area of social and solidarity economy, to share best practices, to transfer competences on the implementation and governance of territorially integrated initiatives, to design innovative governance methodologies and strategies focused on social and solidarity economy, to test governance models with pilot actions.
"The social and solidarity economy districts (DES), promoted in Trentino and equivalent models in Europe, will be able to support a type of territorial cohesion capable of respecting the principles of social, environmental and economic sustainability - the words of Councillor Spinelli -. We believe that this project, which goes beyond the current state-of-the-art social innovation projects, can reduce regional socio-economic differences within the European Union through the creation of new multi-level governance models aimed at social and solidarity economy, in order to make the public-private partnership and the various target groups (from citizens to policy makers) responsible for integrated territorial development'.
