Shipyard Foundation

Shipyard Foundation was established in 2009. For over 12 years, we have been creating and supporting effective solutions to social challenges, involving citizens in deciding on public matters and helping organizations and local governments to plan and implement social activities. We develop and disseminate good practices, create tools to simplify facilitation of social activities, conduct social research, we also conduct trainings and develop educational materials. The effects of our activities are used by e.g.: seniors, students and teachers, citizens, activists and local government officials from all over Poland. What is especially important in our actions is reinforcement of co-operation between two environments: researchers-scientists and civil activists working also in non-governmental organizations. Our actions concentrate on three key issues: social research & consulting, social innovations and civic participation.
