Exploring Circular Economy Solutions through Social Innovation
About
We are Fundación Koine Aequalitas, a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve people’s quality of life by promoting projects focused on social innovation, inclusion, and the creation of new opportunities. We are currently interested in applying to the first ECIV call, which supports interregional projects that connect regions, industries, and research communities to develop circular solutions that are ready for the market. Our proposal is focused on exploring and developing ideas related to the circular economy, with a dual social and economic approach: on the one hand, to train people in situations of social exclusion and/or with disabilities in technical and green skills linked to circular economy activities, and on the other hand, to generate sustainable business lines capable of creating employment and added value. To achieve this, we are seeking collaborative partners to work together, share knowledge and expertise, and jointly develop a solid, innovative project with real impact.
