About
CODICI
We are an independent organisation promoting research and transformation initiatives in the social field.
Our starting point is the idea that research is an open debt to society: theories and publications are means rather than ends for us. We feel the urgency to generate knowledge that improves people’s lives.
We support organisations, institutions and networks in understanding and navigating social change. The actions we propose and the approaches we experiment with are driven by our desire to empower people and give them a voice. We strive to live in a fairer society inhabited by free individuals, where systems promote equity and well-being.
WHAT WE DO
Study and research.
Research and analysis of emerging phenomena, participatory research and social observatories.
Participatory processes.
Workshops, community building, stakeholder engagement, public art and communication campaigns.
Policy planning and design.
Design and implementation of social interventions, capacity building and technical assistance to public authorities.
Training, consultancy and evaluation.
Training courses, supervision of activities and workgroups, consultancy for private bodies and public administrations, evaluation of services and social projects.
HOW WE DO IT
We share all our interventions with our clients regarding objectives, methods and tools. This is why we do not offer collaboration packages but proposals and experiences which we can tailor together. In addition to this dialogue with our clients, partners and collaborators, we never neglect direct contact with the topic, the territory, the people and the services. This is indispensable for producing our research and actions, which are always specific, context-based and different from one another.
We produce analyses built with people and services, not on people and services. We strive to document phenomena with care and proper and reliable measuring tools while continually providing the interpretative keys to decode them. Our analyses originate from constant relationships with the people and the services they refer to. We love the knowledge we produce or that we are lucky enough to discover through our journeys. This is why we share our reports, data, survey methodology and training hand-outs under a free Creative Commons license (CC BY-SA 3.0) whenever possible. Much of this material can be found on this website, available for download. It is a way to support open, more accessible knowledge and to put the many things we learn through our work back into circulation.
WHO WE WORK WITH
Universities, Local authorities, Equality Bodies, Ministries, Foundations, Associations, Cooperatives, Informal groups, Consortia, Schools, Businesses, Hospitals, Health Authorities, Media, Museums, Artists and creative people, Fablabs and Maker Spaces.
We have over 16 years of experience in regional, national and EU-funded projects, including Horizon, AMIC and REC/CERV.
