The organization Llars Compartides, which promotes a model of dignified aging in companionship for older people with low incomes, has joined the iSocial Foundation as a new member
The iSocial Foundation continues to expand its network of member organizations with the incorporation of Llars Compartides, a non-profit entity that works to offer a stable, community-based and dignified housing alternative for older people with limited financial resources. With this addition, the Foundation now counts 22 member organizations.
Founded in 2003, Llars Compartides aims to improve the quality of life of older people through a shared living model that fosters personal autonomy and dignity. Its mission is structured around three main goals: creating and maintaining permanent shared homes, promoting autonomy among older residents, and raising awareness about the challenges of aging in our society.
Currently, the organization manages 14 shared homes —9 in Barcelona and 5 in Badalona— where 56 older people live together. Residents are typically referred by social services or third-sector organizations. The model offers aninnovative and community-based solution to the housing difficulties faced by many older individuals with low pensions.
By joining the iSocial Foundation, Llars Compartides brings valuable experience in alternative housing for older people and aligns itself with iSocial’s collective project to drive innovation in social services. This partnership strengthens a shared commitment to transforming care models by placing people and their real needs at the center, through solutions that combine innovation and social impact.
With this new addition, the iSocial Foundation welcomes an organization that offers a bold and transformative perspective on aging, and contributes to the growth of a network that promotes co-creation, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among organizations and other stakeholders to improve the social services of the future.
Grupo Mifas joins as a new member entity of the iSocial Foundation

With this new addition, the iSocial Foundation strengthens its commitment to diversity and inclusion, welcoming an organization with a solid track record and a transformative vision of physical disability.
Social Inclusion through Community Housing and New Technologies
SällBo (Sweden) & Kloosiv Housing (Catalonia). Held on 14/10/2025.
Webinar in English and Spanish, with live translation into both languages
Access to decent housing is one of the major social challenges of our time. Yet, existing housing options often fail to meet the complex needs of many groups: migrants, people at risk of residential exclusion, those experiencing unwanted loneliness, or living in precarious shared arrangements. Increasingly, there is a shared understanding that stable and direct access to housing is the first step toward social inclusion, enabling individuals to build their life projects.
This perspective invites us to explore more inclusive and community-based ways of living—such as intergenerational and multicultural housing models—that strengthen social bonds, reduce isolation, and foster cohesion. Housing becomes more than just a physical space; it becomes a tool for connection, mutual support, and shared enrichment.
At the same time, technology opens new possibilities to transform housing access and community management: from AI-powered diagnostics and early detection of needs, to digital platforms that connect people, resources, and communities in more agile and transparent ways.
In this Innobreak, we’ll discover two pioneering initiatives leading this transformation:
SällBo (Sweden): a groundbreaking initiative that turns housing into intergenerational and multicultural living spaces, where people of different ages and backgrounds share daily life. Through community activities and shared dynamics, it strengthens social ties, reduces loneliness, and builds mutual support.
Kloosiv (Catalonia): a web platform that combines technology and social intervention to support vulnerable groups in accessing dignified housing. Using AI and advanced tools, it offers a comprehensive pathway including diagnostics, work plans, follow-up, conflict management, and impact evaluation.

Self-directed support: autonomy and decision-making through personal budgets
Individualised Funding (New Zeland) and Pilotaje de Apoyos Autodirigidos (Spain). Held on 17/09/2025.
Webinar held in English and Spanish, with simultaneous translation into English and Catalan
Social services and supports for people with disabilities —and other groups in situations of dependency— have traditionally been organized from an institutional logic, offering standardized responses that often fail to consider people’s real preferences and needs. This approach has limited access to an autonomous, fulfilling life connected to the community.
In contrast to this model, two key ideas are emerging with great transformative potential: self-directed supports and personal budgets.
Self-directed supports place the person at the center, recognizing their right to decide how they want to be supported, by whom, and in what they want to invest their supports. It is a model that champions freedom, autonomy, and decision-making capacity, and understands that supports must adapt to the person’s life — not the other way around.
The main tool to achieve this goal is personal budgets, which consist of allocating a financial resource that the person can use flexibly to configure the supports best suited to their life project. This model goes beyond the rigidity of pre-assigned supports, such as fixed placements in centers, and opens the door to more meaningful, community-based, and personalized options.
This shift in perspective not only improves people’s quality of life, but also promotes a structural transformation of the social services system: toward a logic of trust, personalization, and co-production. It is a true paradigm shift that involves professionals, administrations, and communities, and places people’s dignity and will at the heart of social action.
In this Innobreak, we will reflect on the potential of self-directed supports and personal budgets through two pioneering initiatives that are already paving the way in their territories.
Individualised Funding (New Zeland): A support system that, through a personal budget, allows people with disabilities to decide how, when, and with whom they receive their supports. With the guidance of agents —mostly volunteers— users can design their own life plan and gain autonomy, independence, and freedom of choice.
Pilotaje de Apoyos Autodirigidos (Spain): a pilot project that explores, with a small group of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, how a support system based on personal budgets could work. The goal is to assess its viability as an alternative to current services and to investigate what would be needed to make the model sustainable.

Laura Roig, speech therapist at Audivers 360º: “Immersive therapy allows us to help people with deafness better understand what is happening around them.
We interview speech therapist Laura Roig about Audivers 360º, the winning project of the GrausTIC Award for Social Integration through Digitalization awarded by the iSocial Foundation in 2023
How did the Audivers 360º project come about?
The Audivers 360º project was born at the beginning of 2023 as a result of the Harvi project. This project consisted of speech therapy sessions aimed at deaf children who used virtual reality, using 3D glasses. At that time, the advantages of doing speech therapy with virtual reality to work on sounds from everyday life were beginning to be discovered.
The main disadvantage of the Harvi project was the weight of the glasses, especially in children. On the other hand, this therapy generated a disconnection with the environment, since wearing the glasses meant a loss of relationship with others and with the professional who accompanies the person in the room.
Taking the Harvi project as a reference and thanks to Suara Cooperativa, which was just starting to do projects with immersive reality, we met Broomx, the company that owns the tool. This allowed us to begin developing immersive reality as a tool for auditory rehabilitation of children and people with deafness.
How was the process of giving shape to the project like?
In July 2023, we began a pilot test with adults with deafness, where we tested immersive scenarios that had already been created by Broomx. However, when conducting the pilot test, we identified several drawbacks and the need to adapt the scenarios to people with deafness.
The scenarios we had were very empty in sound content and, since the objective was to work on auditory skills, we needed the sound environment to be richer. Then, we co-created three new scenarios: the Boqueria Market and Plaça Espanya, which are adaptations of existing scenarios and a children’s playground, which was new. In these scenarios, we added ambient sound, as a masking of the sounds we wanted to work on
In February 2024, we conducted another pilot test with the new scenarios, and this time they did respond to the needs of the users. We secured funding to build an immersive room here at ACAPPS during April and May 2024. Since then, we have fully implemented the tool for all people undergoing hearing rehabilitation at our facilities.
What needs does the project respond to?
The Audivers360 project allows us to place the person at the center of the therapy and work specifically in those real environments that generate the most difficulties for them.
It mainly responds to the need that adults and children with deafness have to work on real situations in a safe environment. Immersive reality allows us, for example, to reproduce the sound of a car and ask the person what they are listening to. In addition, we can decide whether or not we want to show the car at that moment. If the person sees the car while hearing the sound, this reinforces auditory discrimination with visual support. On the other hand, if they only hear the sound without seeing the car, they have to remember that that noise corresponds to a car, which favors the work of auditory memory.
What user profile do you work with?
We mainly use the tool to work on auditory skills with deaf people who wear hearing aids, such as an implant or hearing aids. Right now, most people who do auditory rehabilitation with us are adults with deafness, but it is true that we are increasingly starting to incorporate children, although for reasons of extracurricular activities or family reconciliation it is more complicated for them to travel here.
We also work with older people with hearing loss. In this case, the tool helps to promote more active aging. Older people often do not have much access to new technologies, and these sessions motivate them and they perceive a faster evolution of their progress: they tell us that it is easier for them to talk to the person selling the newspaper or that they can hear a car approaching them.
What are the advantages of immersive speech therapy?
Immersive speech therapy allows us to work with real-life sounds and situations in an integrative, enjoyable and safe way, avoiding auditory overattention. Working with real sounds and situations in a controlled way brings naturalness and realism to the therapy. Unlike sessions without technological innovation, immersive therapy helps people with deafness to better understand what is happening around them, which is a stimulus for auditory comprehension because it is not only about identifying a sound, but also recognizing it. Identifying a sound is only the first step; then you need to know what it represents and, finally, understand its meaning. It is not the same to hear the sound of a door, know that it is a door, and associate this sound with the word “door”. The use of immersive reality reduces the error rate in activities. On the other hand, immersive therapy also helps to work more on auditory memory, because we can work on auditory input and visual input at the same time.
How is customization worked on in this project?
We do individual sessions of 45 minutes per week. Especially in terms of auditory rehabilitation, it is interesting that we can do them individually. This way we can more specifically address the needs of each person undergoing therapy.
Before a person starts at Audivers360, we do a speech therapy assessment session, to find out the person’s needs and above all to know how they are in terms of hearing and, with that, plan the work plan. From there, and depending on their interests, we work on various aspects of hearing with the immersive scenarios. For example, since it is stereo, with two speakers in front (right and left) and one in the back, the immersive room allows us to lateralize sounds, a fundamental aspect in rehabilitation.
How does this tool help improve the communication experience of people with deafness?
With Audivers360, we work on both auditory skills, which are the identification, recognition and understanding of sounds and words, and verbal expression. For example, the speech therapist tells a story related to the immersive scenario that is being seen and the user listens to this story, and this allows us to work on auditory comprehension. Later, we ask them to tell the same story again, and in this way we work on verbal expression.
In which environments can this tool be used?
We have the room at the ACAPPS premises. Currently, the attention is very centralized in Barcelona, and usually the adults, children and families who participate in the sessions travel from different points of the Metropolitan Area.
However, the projector we use is small and can be transported. For example, if we wanted to do a session in the hospital, we would only have to find a room with white walls.
Speech therapy session in the ACAPPS immersive room
How has Audivers been received by users?
During the pilot test, we asked people to tell us, using a visual analog scale, how they felt, from 1 to 10, before the session and how they were when they left. With this, we saw that emotional well-being with the immersive room really increased, there was a positive evolution. Currently, in most cases, we carry out satisfaction surveys at the end of each activity and what they tell us is that Audivers360 provides them with a new, more motivating and enjoyable experience.
On the other hand, immersive speech therapy also allows us to work on executive functions, such as memory and attention. Most people tell us, through satisfaction surveys, that with Audivers360 the experience is more motivating and that it does not produce as much auditory fatigue as traditional sessions, which greatly increases the desire to continue with the rehabilitation.
What does it mean to you to have won the Catalonia Graustic Digital Innovation Awards in 2023?
Winning the Innovation Award made us very excited, not so much because of the fact of winning, but because of the recognition of knowing that we are doing work that has a social impact and that we are contributing to improving the lives of people with deafness. It is also important because we are developing an innovative proposal in terms of technology, at a time when technology is advancing at breakneck speed, for example with artificial intelligence. In this context, receiving this recognition as a pioneering and innovative project makes us very excited and makes us aware of the value of the work that the entire technical team behind it does.
What are your current future challenges?
Beyond the technical improvements of Audivers, our challenge is to publicize the project. We would like it to be a methodology that could also be incorporated into hospitals or other centers and to publicize it throughout the healthcare sector, so that it could be used by otolaryngologists, speech therapists, psychologists, etc.
First Annual Meeting of the Rehab-Lab network in Barcelona
We have accredited the new manufacturing laboratories (FabLabs) of the 10 entities throughout Catalonia that have joined the Rehab-Lab network
On Friday, July 4th, the First Annual Meeting of the Rehab-Lab network took place at the Faculty of Mathematics and Statistics of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia.
What is the Rehab-Lab network?
The Rehab-Lab network is an initiative that enables the creation of personalized functional aids for people with disabilities or dependents through 3D printing.
Rehab-Lab is the result of a project led by the iSocial Foundation and supported by four other entities: the Ampans Foundation, the Guttman Institute, CIM-UPC, and Avinent Group. This project has allowed the Rehab-Lab model, promoted in France by the Mutualist Center for Rehabilitation and Functional Rehabilitation (CMRRF), to be adapted to Catalonia. The project has been co-financed by the Department of Social Rights of the Generalitat of Catalonia through the European Next Generation Fund.
New entities of the Rehab-Lab Network
During this first Rehab-Lab event, we welcomed and formally accredited the following ten entities as new manufacturing laboratories (FabLabs)to the network:Alba Association; MIFAS Group; Aspace Catalunya Foundation; ASPID Association; Esclat Social Group; El Maresme Foundation; Àuria Foundation; Onada Foundation; Althaia, Manresa University Healthcare Network, and Ramon Noguera Foundation. These entities join the two FabLabs that were previously part of the network (Guttmann Institute and Ampans Foundation). These new additions expand the Rehab-Lab network’s capacity to create customized solutions and serve people throughout the country.
The meeting, opened by Víctor Cid of the CIM-UPC Foundation, featured an introduction by representatives of the Kerpape CMRRF, the founding organization of the European Rehab-Lab community. The results obtained over the past few months were also presented, as well as the most outstanding solutions created by the nine FabLabs. Attendees were able to vote for the best functional aids created during the training period in three different categories: innovation, technical complexity, and social impact.
A process of co-creation
Functional aids are low-cost, quickly manufactured, custom plastic devices created through a co-creation process with the beneficiary. These solutions address specific daily needs of people with disabilities, enhancing their autonomy and improving their quality of life.
During the training months leading up to their accreditation as FabLabs, the new network entities had the opportunity to explore this design methodology and develop new proposals for functional aids, which they presented during Friday’s event. After the presentations, the audience selected the most outstanding aids in various categories. The winning proposals were:
Most innovative functional aid: The Domino Stand, from the Onada Foundation. A stand that uses 32 articulated pieces to hold and play dominoes independently.
Most complex functional aid: Feedycare, from the Maresme Foundation. An automated system that facilitates PEG tube feeding, making it more convenient for both professionals and family members, as well as for the user, who can activate it themselves using a switch or a computer and share the meal with the family.
Most impactful functional aid: Ceramic hob guide plate, from the Àuria Group. A tactile surface that allows blind people to use a ceramic hob safely and independently..
The day concluded with a presentation by Toni Codina, director of the iSocial Foundation, who expressed his commitment to continue working together to consolidate and expand the Rehab-Lab network.
New Edition of the Award for Social Integration through Digitalization within the Digital Innovation Awards of Catalonia 2025
Applications for this award, co-organized by iSocial and GrausTIC, can be submitted until October 17
Since June 4, the call for the new edition of the Digital Innovation Awards of Catalonia 2025 – GrausTIC has been open. These awards recognize outstanding initiatives for their ability to innovate through information and communication technologies (ICT) and their transformative impact on Catalan society. Once again, the iSocial Foundation is co-organizing and sponsoring the Award for Social Integration through Digitalization.
The Award for Social Integration through Digitalization is aimed at companies, organizations, or institutions that, over the past year, have embraced digital innovation to promote social inclusion—either by making their projects accessible to everyone or by creating technological tools that support vulnerable groups. The goal of the award is to highlight initiatives that, through technology, have a direct impact on people’s lives, especially those of individuals in vulnerable situations.
The call will remain open until October 17, 2025, and the awards ceremony will take place during the “Diada de les TIC” (ICT Day) in Catalonia, scheduled for November 12 and 13 at the Telefónica Tower in Barcelona.
With this fourth edition of the award, we aim to continue contributing to a digital transformation with a positive social impact, centered on people and driven by a commitment to inclusion. We encourage all initiatives working along these lines to submit their applications!
In addition to the social integration award, the Digital Innovation Awards of Catalonia also recognize outstanding projects in other areas such as energy management and sustainability, health innovation, the digital transformation of local government, youth digital entrepreneurship, Industry 4.0, and female leadership in the ICT sector. This year, a new category has been added to recognize university-based projects focused on digital technologies. A broad range of awards designed to showcase how digital innovation is transforming various sectors and improving society as a whole.
The iSocial Foundation has joined the cooperative Fiare Banca Etica as a member, within the framework of an agreement that also includes a line of credit to finance iSocial’s projects and the sponsorship of several of our foundation’s publications.
After several years of growing collaboration with Fiare Banca Ètica, the iSocial Foundation has signed an agreement to establish a stronger alliance with this cooperative ethical finance entity, which operates in both Spain and Italy. The agreement includes, among other aspects, iSocial’s membership in the cooperative bank, the creation of a €400,000 line of credit to support iSocial’s projects, and the sponsorship of several of the foundation’s publications.
The line of credit will enable iSocial to carry out its projects while awaiting the disbursement of already-approved public grants. This measure brings stability to the Foundation’s day-to-day operations and strengthens a model of sustained growth aligned with social responsibility principles.
In parallel, Fiare Banca Etica will sponsor two Professional Guides on Innovation in Social Action this year, which will be published in the coming months. These Professional Guides are a series of publications promoted by iSocial and aimed at social services professionals, offering information and practical resources to help incorporate innovative approaches into their daily work. Fiare’s support will give a boost to the second and third guides in the series: “Opening Doors to Inclusion”, focused on social inclusion methodologies, and “Measuring Social Impact”, which will offer a practical methodology to evaluate the outcomes of social interventions.
Fiare Banca Etica is a cooperative financial institution born from the merger of Fiare (Spain, 2005) and Banca Popolare Etica (Italy, 1999), with the aim of putting finance at the service of social transformation. The bank has more than 46,000 individual and organizational members and is governed by a democratic model based on the principle of “one person, one vote.”
Its financing activities prioritize projects related to social inclusion, the social and solidarity economy, agroecology, education, and culture, among other areas. The agreement represents a step forward in building synergies between organizations working toward more just social and economic models, through initiatives that promote innovation, sustainability, and the transformation of care services.
Our app Nidus and the Vincles Alt Pirineu-Aran project against unwanted loneliness were two of the main features at ESSC 2025.
From June 22 to 25, the iSocial Foundation took part in the European Social Services Conference (ESSC 2025), the leading European forum dedicated to welfare policies and social services, held this year in Aarhus, Denmark.
Under the theme “Where Care meets Tech”, this year’s edition focused on the role of technology in the transformation of social services—an area in which iSocial contributed its experience through two of its own initiatives.
Nidus, featured in the Innovation Zone
On one hand, we presented Nidus, our digital support app for people in vulnerable situations, which was one of the main features in the conference’s “Innovation Zone”. We also had a dedicated stand to demonstrate how the app works to attendees.
Nidus is a tool designed to facilitate communication and support between social services users and their professional contacts. Among other features, it offers a secure digital vault for storing personal documents easily and safely, a direct chat between the user and their professional support team, an AI-powered personal assistant, a shared calendar, customizable questionnaires, and other tools aimed at empowering the user and improving service efficiency.
Vincles Alt Pirineu-Aran: detection and community
As part of the ESSC, we also presented the Vincles Alt Pirineu-Aran project—an initiative aimed at detecting and preventing situations of unwanted loneliness through big data technology and community activation in the region. This project was presented alongside the Auzosare program from the Basque Country, led by Agintzari, a member organization of the iSocial Foundation. Both initiatives share the goal of creating community networks that prevent and address social isolation in rural and sparsely populated areas.
A reference space for social innovation
Participating in ESSC 2025 was a great opportunity to exchange knowledge, discover inspiring initiatives from across Europe, and build new partnerships with organizations working to rethink social services through a lens that blends technology with essential human values such as inclusion and dignity.
The iSocial Foundation thanks the European Social Network for organizing this event and for the invitation to take part. We return from Aarhus with fresh ideas and the satisfaction of having shared our work in a leading international forum.
The visits to organisations and facilities in Helsinki and Espoo allowed us to gain closer insight into some pioneering initiatives in one of the countries with the most advanced social infrastructure.
From June 2nd to 6th, the iSocial Foundation organised a new edition of Innotrip, the annual learning journey it promotes with its member organisations to explore international best practices in the social sector. This year’s destination was Helsinki, with the aim of discovering innovative experiences currently being developed in Finland — a leading country in the implementation of the welfare state.
The trip offered a valuable opportunity to observe and reflect on advanced care models through visits to municipal services, social organisations and community initiatives that tackle key challenges such as poverty, disability, homelessness, mental health, and digital inclusion.
A focus on integrated, person-centred care
he first day of visits took us to resources such as the Roihuvuori Senior Centre and Kallio Perhekeskus, which focus on supporting older adults and families through an integrated and preventative approach. We also explored municipal services aimed at mental health and youth at risk, as well as initiatives for caregiver training and peer support.
One of the key takeaways from this first encounter with the Finnish social model was becoming familiar with its strong commitment to collaboration among stakeholders and to the active involvement of citizens in community-based care.
Mentorship, participation, and social impact evaluation
LOn the second day, we discovered projects like Icehearts, which offers long-term mentoring through sports and education, and Vamos! by the Diaconia Foundation, which supports vulnerable youth. During this visit, we also learned about the use of social impact bonds — a tool to activate social projects more efficiently and quickly, involving private companies in the promotion of social wellbeing.
On the other hand, the City of Helsinki presented the Feedback-Informed Treatment (FIT) system to us, which integrates service users’ feedback to improve care quality. We also got to know Pokka, a platform developed by the organisation Kukunori, which is used by over 100 entities to evaluate the impact of social projects.
Housing, self-determination, and child protection
On the third day, we visited organisations such as Y-Säätiö, a key promoter of the Housing First model in Finland, and Tukena, which advocates for self-directed support for people with disabilities. We also explored Rinnekodit, a residential facility located in a natural setting for individuals with high support needs, and the Barnahus model for integrated child protection services — currently being rolled out in Catalonia — giving us a valuable international reference for this system.
These experiences provided tools to rethink how we can ensure dignity and autonomy for people in vulnerable situations, while promoting community-based approaches and respect for individual rights.
Deinstitutionalisation and digital inclusion
The final day introduced us to two initiatives addressing access to community life and basic rights from different angles. On one hand, Kehitysvammaliitto (the Finnish Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities) presented its work in the deinstitutionalisation process and the implementation of peer support networks. Through Peer Support Groups, people with disabilities share knowledge and experiences, strengthening both their autonomy and collective advocacy capacity.
On the other hand, the DigiUp programme, — led by the Moniheli network — works to reduce the digital divide among migrant populations. It trains digital facilitators — both volunteers and professionals — who offer guidance in basic digital skills, such as safe device usage and access to digital services. Both initiatives contribute to enabling more inclusive and equitable participation in social life.
A shared experience with collective impact
This journey was a unique opportunity to discover inspiring initiatives, identify shared challenges, and explore alternative approaches that can help strengthen social services in our own context. The time spent together over these five days of Innotrip and the chance to learn from some of Finland’s most innovative social projects also fostered meaningful dialogue and collective learning among participating organisations — exchanges that will continue well beyond the trip.
We at the iSocial Foundation would like to thank all the participating organisations for their active engagement and interest: ABD, AMPANS, Fundació Família i Benestar Social, Fundació Joia, Fundació Catalana Síndrome de Down, Fundació Resilis, Pere Claver Grup, Fundació Idea, Fundació El Maresme, FAFAC, Agintzari, REIR, Som Alba, Intress, Fundació Hàbitat3, Grup ATRA, Grupo SSI, Som Fundació, Fundació Aspace Catalunya, Grup MIFAS. We are also deeply grateful to all the Finnish organisations that welcomed us and generously shared their knowledge and experience.
