Gipuzkoa’s model of Social Services has historically been defined by a strong and close bond between the public sector and the Third Sector. However, the aging of the population, the economic crisis and the pressure to which the Welfare State is been subjected are making inevitable a re-configuration of the welfare system. In this sense, special focus has been paid to different non-profit initiatives that defend the important role of community on the process of social policies development. This study presents five different initiatives that are being carried out in Gipuzkoa in order to promote new forms of neighbourhood solidarity and community volunteering on different spheres such as the elderly and people at risk of exclusion. In this sense, the main aim of the study is to measure their impact on society and to identify key factors that lead to their effectiveness.
