One of the main difficulties regarding social innovation is the scaling-up of initiatives, their survival in time and space, and the impact they can create in society. This observatory intends to contribute to highlighting social innovation initiatives and organisations. In this section you can find a map that identifies social economy and social innovation organisations in the Atlantic Area, such as: social enterprises, cooperatives, charities, public agencies, among other types of entities. For each actor basic information and main competencies will be shared.

Compass Project is a not-for-profit social enterprise founded and operated entirely by people with a history of drug/alcohol dependency and offending backgrounds. It raises the majority of funds through two 2nd hand stores and restoration workshop which go back into the project to help and support its members, address behavioural issues and develop core work skills. Everyone involved in the project works on a voluntary basis to take advantage of this unique environment of shared personal experience and identification. This gives the time needed to address the barriers the members face when attempting to reintegrate society after a life-time of addiction and crime.
