El Desafío (Desafío Talento)

El Desafío is a cohort-based, 12-month programme that supports social organisations and other actors to co-design and implement collaborative solutions to complex social challenges. The initiative combines training, mentoring, territorial knowledge and implementation support so participating teams can validate and scale viable, sustainable projects. Selected proposals receive seed capital and strategic, legal or technological support to launch their projects.
