Cité-ID and the Mai­son de l’innovation sociale join forces

The Young Project involves tem­po­rary occu­pa­tion of an emp­ty indus­tri­al build­ing in Griffin­town (Young Street) in Mon­tréal, in an ini­tia­tive led by the organ­i­sa­tion Entrem­ise (http://​www​.entrem​ise​.ca/​l​a​b​o​r​a​t​o​i​r​e​t​r​a​n​s​i​t​oire/). The Mai­son de l’innovation sociale, one of the organ­i­sa­tions using this space, asked the Cité-ID Liv­ingLab to over­see the project’s Gov­er­nance stu­dio and pro­vide assis­tance and exper­tise on gov­er­nance issues facd by the mul­ti­ple projects installed in the Young Project. In the col­lab­o­ra­tion, Cité-ID acquires a phys­i­cal space, along with access to many poten­tial field-part­ners who wish to work along­side researchers to devel­op inno­v­a­tive solutions.
