ASSETS_D2.3_AUTH_IpeirosTranscritps

This dataset contains fully anonymised interview transcripts collected for Deliverable 2.3 of the ASSETS project within Work Package 2.3, contributing to the qualitative phase of the project and informing Deliverable 2.5. The qualitative phase aims to capture nuanced insights and lived experiences related to the political, regulatory, and labour landscape of the social economy across European regions. The transcripts derive from semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted in Ipeiros (Greece) with a diverse group of social economy stakeholders, including representatives of social and solidarity economy organisations and networks, public administration staff, political actors, university-based and non-academic researchers, employees of intermediary organisations, and members of social movements. The interviews explore regional social economy ecosystems, existing legal and policy frameworks, institutional arrangements, labour conditions, and perceived barriers and enabling factors affecting the development, sustainability, and scaling of social economy initiatives. All transcripts have been fully anonymised in accordance with ethical requirements and data protection regulations. This dataset supports the qualitative analysis reported in Deliverable 2.3 and contributes to a comparative understanding of social economy governance, policy design, and labour conditions across territorial contexts. It is shared to enhance transparency, reusability, and future research on institutional ecosystems and enabling environments for the social economy.
