Work with community and public bodies in Ireland and Europe to identify ways of addressing social issues.
Co-Creation Support CLG is a not-for-profit, social enterprise.
It supports collaboration to produce mutually valued outcomes. The co-creation process involves bringing different parties together, for example service users and providers, to share ideas, solve problems and create better ways of doing things. Our approach engages the experiences, expertise and knowledge from all perspectives to come up with solutions to issues.
We are currently working on an Erasmus + funded project called Two Moons in collaboration with partners in Italy, Finland and Romania. See project website https://twomoons.eu/
