CONCEPT
In the Conclusions on the Fifth report on Cohesion Policy, the European
Commission underlines the positive role local partnerships involving
social partners and civil society can have in achieving the territorial,
economic and social cohesion objective. In the same document, the
Commission asks how such partnership principle can be improved.
Widening the perspective, the International Forum on Territorial Social
Initiatives, organized by ForTeS – ‘Training School for the Third Sector’
Foundation – and REVES – the European Network of Cities and Regions
for the Social Economy – will examine ways to fully exploit the potential
of territorial social Initiatives in terms of improvement of social cohesion
through better quality of life for all citizens.
In order to do so, the forum will concentrate on 3 main aspects:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
1. the social added value generated by territorial social initiatives,
2. the partnership approach and
3. financial tools for smooth functioning of territorial social initiatives.
•
•
These three dimensions will be taken into consideration in two phases:
•
a first day of debate aimed at exchanging and discussion involving
•
•
•
•
•
territorial experiences, public authorities, international institutions
and international organizations; a second day devoted at drafting some
common guidelines for action.
The forum will see the participation of app. 150 persons representing
different points of view and will use techniques of mutual learning and
exchange aimed at creating a “melting chamber” able to propose factual
policies and programmes at local, national and international level.

FIRST LABORATORY
The social added value of territorial civil society initiatives
Social added value (Sav) refers to the capacity of civil society initiatives to
generate a common, diffused value out of collective private initiatives. Sav
is a mix of relevant economic activities and promotion and reproduction
of social capital in local communities. Such value needs techniques to
be assessed and fully acknowledged. The measurement of Sav adopted
qualitative and quantitative methodologies take to understand the complexity
of the social impact of civil society.
The present laboratory will discuss the definition, the assessment techniques
and the impact of SAV on policy and programme making.

THIRD LABORATORY
Financing tools for territorial social initiatives
The present financial situation pushed everybody to take conscience of the
need to develop new and more sophisticated financial tools in order to carry
out proper social cohesion policies and programmes. Financing of territorial
social initiatives should not be looked at as a marginal issue, but, the other
way round, as a core issue for the local level. The present laboratory will
discuss the financial means necessary to territorial social initiatives and the
way to unlock them.
