ABRUZZO
ITALIAAbruzzo er et svært fjellrikt område, og har derfor alltid blitt betraktet som en marginal region. Regionen har de siste årene opplevd en betydelig endring takket være fremdrift mot sosial innovasjon som nettopp kommer fra de indre områdene. Eksempler er blomstringen av energisamfunn (Gagliano Aterno), samfunnskooperativer (Campo di Giove, San Vincenzo Valle Roveto) og digitale velferdsinitiativer (Calascio). Abruzzo-regionen selv har begynt å inkorporere denne drivkraften i sine egne politiske linjer, ved å adressere lokale behov med et spesielt fokus på helse og velvære for alle og for alle aldre, en inkluderende og bærekraftig økonomisk vekst, like muligheter og digitalisering. Disse målene er bare delvis oppnådd i dag.
