Possibilities for realizing social innovation efforts in the Abaúj region
Keywords:
social innovation, disadvantaged area, periphery, stigmatization, good praticesAbstract
The purpose of the study is to examine the social innovation aspirations of the Abaúj region. The Abaúj region includes disadvantaged settlements which have a number of problems due to their peripheral situation. The challenges of the region (migration, aging, unemployment and the lack of financial resources) are a double disadvantage for the settlements. On the one hand, there is an external negative perception and, on the other hand, the internal stigmatization processes of local people, which require the precise identification of local needs and the involvement of the population in decisions. One of the tools of these initiatives may be to support social innovation and social innovation efforts. The study presents the focal points that are potential activating factors of aspirations in the Abaúj region. The examined cases play an important role in the management of the unfavorable processes in the region, and their adaptation as good practice can support the catching-up process. The study also identifies the main groups of aspects that, in addition to structuring the case descriptions, also facilitate comparability of good practice.
