The event brought together around 40 participants from the 20 member organizations, providing a platform to discuss strategic priorities and showcase innovative projects from both iSocial and other entities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, November 19, iSocial held its 2nd Annual Meeting of Member Organizations<\/strong>, gathering nearly 40 representatives from the 20 entities<\/strong> that make up our Foundation. Once again, this event provided a unique opportunity to share projects, explore new areas of collaboration, and strengthen synergies between organizations with the goal of driving innovation in the social sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meeting began with remarks from the Foundation\u2019s new president, Josep Maria Sol\u00e9<\/a><\/strong>, followed by an introduction from director Toni Codina, who presented the Foundation’s achievements over 2024. The iSocial technical team then shared highlights from some of our key projects: the Social Services Dashboard for Basic Areas<\/strong>,<\/a> the iSocialPro Suite<\/a><\/strong> for supporting individuals in vulnerable situations, the RehabLab <\/a><\/strong>project using 3D printing for functional aids, and Vincles Alt-Pirineu Aran<\/a><\/strong>, an initiative combining big data analysis and community intervention to detect and prevent unwanted loneliness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, however, we also wanted to give the floor to our member organizations to present some of the innovative initiatives they are leading, which serve as excellent examples of best practices. These included the La Bassa Community Space<\/strong><\/a> by the Alba Group, offering an inclusive model for elderly people in rural areas; SoyYoLiteral<\/a><\/strong> <\/a>by the Joia Foundation, a platform for young people with mental health resources; and Atenea <\/a><\/strong>by ABD, a technological tool using voice recognition to assist seniors and dependent individuals with daily tasks. Ampans introduced VinculAPP<\/strong><\/a>, an app designed to improve communication with users and families, while the SSI Group presented ZainLab<\/a><\/strong>, focusing on training and employment in care work and longevity. Other showcased projects included Neurona<\/a><\/strong> <\/a>app by the ASPACE Catalunya Foundation, an app connecting users with professionals in an accessible way, and the Llar La Merc\u00e8 <\/a><\/strong>by FIBS, which provides comprehensive community-based aging services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This starting point allowed us to reflect on the challenges facing the sector and discuss the importance of fostering knowledge-sharing among organizations to build alliances that amplify the social sector\u2019s impact<\/strong>. Building on discussions from the last Innotrip<\/a><\/strong>, we also explored topics such as making user spaces more welcoming, developing training pathways aligned with the European Union\u2019s professional skills objectives, and digitizing processes to improve service quality and efficiency. The destination for the next Innotrip in 2025 was also decided: it will take place in Finland, a benchmark country for social innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We at the iSocial Foundation would like to thank all member organizations for their active participation and commitment. Their engagement and expertise are the driving force behind the Foundation\u2019s mission. The reflections, ideas, and proposals from participants laid a strong foundation for continuing to advance toward a more innovative, inclusive, and responsive social care model<\/strong> to address future challenges.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
