February 2010: beginning of stakeholders survey


Sample project assigns a strategic role to informal group, associations, public and third sector's organisations (called stakeholders) that realise actions against poverty in a wide and multidimensional meaning.

In Pisa province we selected 690 stakeholders and we sent them a questionnaire that may be compiled on line.

The survey has 5 aims:

  1. Achieving their point of view on the poverty level because they are priviliged observation points. The questionnaire contains specific questions about their perception on the intensity of poverty and about changes over time (considering current economic crisis)
  2. Achieving their point of view on the importance of main poverty indicators. The questionnaire contains the reference, with a simple language, to Laeken  indicators and to indicators used in EU-SILC
  3. Knowing their information system and any arrangements for storing and managing informations in their possession.
  4. Receiving their proposal and observations on politics and actions against poverty
  5. Involving them in the construction of the Observation System to monitor poverty, vulnerability and social exclusion

La Provincia di Pisa partecipa al Comitato di Presidenza CUSPI

Bologna, 13 gennaio 2010

In occasione della riunione del Comitato di Presidenza di CUSPI, la Provincia di Pisa è stata invitata a partecipare per illustrare il Progetto Sample.
Il CUSPI (Coordinamento degli Uffici di Statistica delle Province Italiane) è un organismo tecnico, ad adesione volontaria, operante nell'ambito dell'Unione delle Province d'Italia (UPI), con sede a Roma. La sua finalità è soddisfare gli obiettivi informativi e statistici dei suoi membri e collaborare con gli enti che fanno parte del Sistema Statistico Nazionale (SISTAN) e con altri organismi simili, anche di altri paesi, al fine di favorire, sviluppare e divulgare le analisi statistiche, le attività culturali e di ricerca nel campo informativo e statistico, per le autonomie locali.
Le province presenti, tra cui Rovigo, Roma, Pesaro, Urbino, Cremona, Rimini, Asti, Reggio Calabria appartenenti al Comitato di Presidenza CUSPI, si sono mostrate molto interessate alla presentazione del progetto soprattutto sull'aspetto della possibile esportabilità del modello di sviluppo individuato dalla progettualità di SAMPLE.
La Provincia di Pisa ha come obiettivo finale la costruzione di un Sistema permanente di monitoraggio della povertà e delle situazioni di vulnerabilità e di esclusione sociale a supporto delle politiche locali. La costruzione di tale sistema sarà possibile grazie alla selezione e coinvolgimento, attraverso un'indagine (Delphi Method), di stakeolders locali, quali soggetti appartenenti al terzo settore, organizzazioni istituzionali e non, e dalla definizione di accordi formali con essi.
Alla conclusione dell'indagine saranno previsti degli incontri, tra cui uno con il Comitato di Presidenza CUSPI, in cui saranno illustrati i risultati della rilevazione.
