CRAFT | European Action for Social Entrepreneurship Support

Summary
Through events, summits, gathering of existing tools for best practice and a digital ecosystem for social entrepreneurs, we will strengthen the ecosystem for social innovation in Europe.
We will create a European peer-to-peer academy for social & impact entrepreneurship support. Co-owned by European support organizations, we will endeavor to increase the capacities of social entrepreneurship support organizations in Europe. The academy aims to sustainably boost the impact of the European ecosystem for social & impact-driven entrepreneurship.
We will gather and promote tools and facilitate locally based events, and facilitate summits where knowledge, methods, best practices, and tools are disseminated. In addition, we will build on existing digital platforms to create a social innovation ecosystem where best practices, knowledge and tools will be granted free of charge for social entrepreneurs.
Key output from the project:
- Registration of best practice out before and after intervention. The registration forms from the first registration will be used to select relevant tools to be included in the digital ecosystem.
- Two social innovation policy summits and a final conference for actors in the social innovation ecosystem.
- Collection of tools from actors working with social innovation. The tools may come from relevant accelerators, investors, incubators and public entities such as universities and government.
All activities and tools will be free accessible at the digital ecosystem. The digital ecosystem will be built on existing software systems.
The digital ecosystem will be a strong European network with various actors within different branches and knowledge from professionals within the field.
