We have observed the role of social enterprises involved in the CCIs across Europe, to understand how social economy enterprises can contribute to cultural and creative industries and how together they are able to foster spatial and sectorial clusters, such as one taking an ecological approach to cultural cooperation and territorial development.
One of the main things that links all good practices, analysed in this survey, is the strong will to deal with issues of their territory through creative and cultural solutions which are able to boost community involvement.
This survey is composed of three parts: a review of evidence, a workshop and an empirical component (case studies). From these parts have emerged certain key features, which are outlined in the executive summary and linked with the case studies that will be presented in the final report.
