DRAGGING Project

DRAGGING Project is the result of cooperation of 5 partners from 4 European countries committed to address the financial crisis and the COVID crisis in the context of decreasing income of the third sector.

DRAGGING project partnership is glad to launch the new project website: www.draggingproject.eu

Through the web platform we will share all the steps and outputs of the 24-month-long pan-European Erasmus+ project, funded by the Spanish National Agency (Servicio Español para la Internacionalización de la Educación (SEPIE)), aiming at reducing the gap between local administrations and local social organisations in order to generate a bank of business opportunities to which these organisations may apply.

The project was launched, and the first partners’ hybrid meetings resulted in detailed concepts and frameworks being developed for a common understanding of the objectives and envisioned deliverables.

Expected impact of the project:

• To train professionals from social organisations to improve their relationship with the public administration and respond to the needs in terms of new public procurement policies.​
• To create effective working synergies that allow mutual knowledge and enable new financing tools that are more in line with the needs of social entities and that provide adequate services to the public administration ecosystem.​
• Job creation generated by entrepreneurial projects and participation of entrepreneurs in the design of social enterprises. ​
• Impact on Local Public Administration to become an ally in identifying future public procurement market niches.
