<\/p>\n2025 was a year in which Ases\u00f3rate Consultores Asociados reaffirmed its reason for being: to produce useful knowledge, generate social impact and strengthen capabilities to transform realities. A year to consolidate learning, to weave new alliances and to assume with conviction the commitment to continue building a fairer and more inclusive society.<\/p>\n
Ases\u00f3rate has earned a place as an entity that thinks, researches, designs, trains and accompanies. Our approach has always been clear: to unite scientific rigor with social commitment. From Spain and with academic and social allies in different countries, we have promoted research-action projects, social innovation and specialized training that respond to the real challenges of our communities.<\/p>\n
This year we moved forward with a renewed and strengthened team. Our President and CEO, together with a Board of Directors with complementary expertise -management, research, data, pedagogy, communication- led the institutional consolidation and strategic projection for the coming years. The incorporation of external specialists, according to the needs of each project, allowed us to enrich our work with a diversity of professional perspectives.<\/p>\n
Our mission and vision also guided us with clarity: research to transform, train to empower and design social technologies that improve people's lives and enhance their well-being. On this basis, we strengthened six strategic lines of research: post-pandemic emotional well-being, human rights, migration and interculturality, education and digital transformation, social technology and participatory methodologies, and updating in emerging areas of knowledge.<\/p>\n
It was also a year of large-scale projects. \u201cVoces en Com\u00fan\u201d, focused on migration, intercultural dialogue, social cohesion and community intervention in Barcelona, allowed us to further deepen a fundamental issue of our time. On the other hand, \u201cVIVIRED\u201d, focused on the emotional health of the elderly, is moving towards its first version of a mobile application to strengthen bonds and counteract unwanted loneliness. And \u201cMente en Juego - Conecta y Desconecta\u201d, benefited by the Mapfre Ignacio Larramendi Grant, represents an innovative bet for the emotional and digital wellbeing of early childhood. Finally, we are working on the proposal \u201cBarcelona: blurring borders\u201d, which promotes mutual recognition in diverse and changing contexts. All these projects share a common principle: putting people and their communities at the center.<\/p>\n
Training was another of our strengths. We participated in highly specialized programs with academic institutions such as the National Academy of Medicine of Venezuela, UCAM and UCAB, addressing frontier issues: artificial intelligence in research and scientific ethics, human rights of vulnerable groups, migration and new forms of citizenship. We also developed webinars open to the public on scientific arbitration, migration policies, impact-based planning and -very specially- a webinar to break down prejudices and revalue the social role of people from 60 to 80 years old: \u201cBeyond ageism\u201d.<\/p>\n
Our line of mentoring continued to grow, accompanying researchers and professionals in different phases of their projects, reinforcing personalized learning and the improvement of research practice.<\/p>\n
In the editorial area, we strengthened our intellectual production with the series \u201cLet's talk about...\u201d, a space that brings expert knowledge closer to citizens in a friendly and thoughtful language. The topics addressed -migrations, social memories, childhood, renewable energies, feminism, digital intelligence and more- reflect the diversity of voices and perspectives that make Ases\u00f3rate a vibrant and plural community.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2025 also marked a qualitative leap in institutional communication. We renewed our website, updated visual and informative materials and strengthened our presence in networks, now managed internally with a new vision, aesthetics and strategy. Ases\u00f3rate's identity grew towards a modern, coherent image, with messages aligned with our values: rigor, ethics, excellence and humanity.<\/p>\n
From the administrative management, we comply with the legal and fiscal obligations of our association, and we apply our projects to European and Spanish calls for proposals, paving the way for the next cycles of research and funding.<\/p>\n
The achievements of 2025 can be summarized in one key phrase: knowledge that turns into action. Actions that connect, that accompany, that teach, that question and that create opportunities for those who need them most. And, above all, actions that are built collectively.<\/p>\n
We look forward to 2026 with enthusiasm and clear objectives: to execute the projects we have developed with such care, expand our network of partnerships, position ourselves even more in the field of social innovation and inclusive technologies, and expand our training and mentoring offerings to reach further and more people.<\/p>\n
We close this year with deep gratitude. To our team for their constant dedication, to the institutions and organizations that trust us, and to all the people who inspire us every day to continue. Your support makes it possible for our ideas to come to life and for our work to make sense.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This year we did it together.<\/p>\n
Next time, we will continue to transform together.<\/p>\n
