Well-being.

The Fundación Mapfre Awards for Social Innovation revolve around a major challenge: to improve people’s quality of life and well-being, a challenge that, on this occasion, focused on three key areas: well-being, social inclusion, and demographic transformation.
Out of a total of 469 applications received, the four regional judging panels (Brazil, the rest of Latin America, Europe and the United States) shortlisted the four best projects to take part in the Grand Final held in Madrid, in the auditorium at the Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofía.
During the event, the overall winner was selected and awarded a prize of €100,000. The other three finalists each received €10,000. In addition, they have all become part of Red Innova.
