As consortia begin drafting proposals for the Co-funded European Partnership for Social Transformations and Resilience, the challenge isn’t just defining the research—it is proving how that research will actually reach, engage, and impact local communities.

Based in the Canary Islands (an EU outermost region), Consulta Europa is an SME specialised in bridging the gap between high-level EU policy and practical, ground-level implementation. We have a solid track record across Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, and Interreg, and we are looking to join a consortium where we can add real value in stakeholder mobilisation, piloting, and participatory methodologies.

Here is exactly what we bring to a proposal:

1. Proven Co-Creation and Mobilisation at Scale

The call stresses the need to “construct new, innovative ways to connect researchers with policymakers, stakeholders, and citizens.” We don’t just facilitate workshops; we mobilise communities at scale.

Over 1,300 Stakeholders Mobilised: In the IDEAHL project, our co-creation methodologies allowed us to engage and mobilise over 1,300 stakeholders across Europe, demonstrating our ability to design and run highly effective participatory processes.
High-Impact Communication: In the recently completed Horizon Europe project FLIARA (Female-Led Innovation in Agriculture and Rural Areas), we led the communication, dissemination, and exploitation strategies, successfully embedding female-led innovation into rural development networks and policy frameworks.

2. A Ready-Made Living Lab in an Outermost Region

The STR partnership requires “social experimentations at subnational and regional levels.” Outermost regions and island territories face amplified challenges when it comes to the green transition, demographic shifts, and economic vulnerability. By bringing us into your consortium, you gain an ideal testing ground. We can rapidly deploy and monitor social pilots within a distinct, structurally complex regional ecosystem.

3. Deep Integration with Vulnerable Target Groups

We design practical methodologies to reach groups that are often difficult to engage:

Youth & Social Inclusion: In YouthSOFTPOWER and CARE4YOUTH, we work directly with NEETs, migrants, refugees, and care-experienced youth, using non-formal education to build employability and digital skills.
Demographic Change & Well-being: Through the STEP-BY-STEP project, we develop community-level, non-pharmacological interventions for older adults to address active ageing.

4. Quadruple-Helix Network Management

In our Horizon Europe project EXPER, we manage stakeholder engagement and institutional capacity building across the Canary Islands and the Azores. We have direct, day-to-day access to regional public authorities, universities, civil society organisations, and local businesses, allowing us to act as the vital link between academic data and evidence-based policy.

Our Core Contributions to Your Proposal:

Design of Participatory Methodologies: Deploying our tested co-creation frameworks to engage citizens, social innovators, and policymakers.
Regional Piloting & Comparative Studies: Managing subnational testing grounds and gathering qualitative data in specific territorial contexts.
Targeted Capacity Building: Developing practical training and upskilling actions for local authorities and social partners.
Exploitation & Dissemination: Ensuring project results don’t sit in a report, but are actively taken up by local ecosystems.

If you are looking for an experienced, highly proactive partner to strengthen the impact and implementation section of your proposal, let’s talk.
