IE Foundation, FacePhi and inuit Fundación collaborate to create the new observatory focused on positive social impact
Last Thursday, March 9, 2023, a new collaboration agreement was signed between FacePhi, inuit Fundación and IE Foundation for the creation of the Join4Impact Observatory.
The focus of this new research initiative is to generate applied knowledge about the potential of new technologies to create a positive social impact, promoting proactive impact management as a central tool in the development of innovative projects, intensive in technology and knowledge.
The Join4Impact Observatory, directed by Concepción Galdón, aims to promote the development of an effective paradigm of social impact in Spain, supported by advances in new technologies and knowledge, through multidisciplinary research in the field of the application of new technologies to the management of social impact in real projects.
Thus, the alliance contemplates a common goal: to create a positive social impact on the community.
The main activity of the observatory will revolve around the generation, diffusion and exchange of knowledge and innovation through the publication of an annual applied research report and subsequent presentation of results.
“The Join4Impact Observatory was created to contribute to this effort through the generation and dissemination of knowledge.”
Concepción Galdón
“In order to maximize the value of technology-based efforts in social matters, it is necessary to know and proactively manage the impact of the technologies that are applied, promoting the great opportunities that are generated and facing the challenges that new technologies pose. The Join4Impact Observatory was created to contribute to this effort through the generation and dissemination of knowledge.” – Concepción Galdón.
