People, technology and territory

17 of the 20 organisations interviewed struggle to attract young people and to keep them involved over time, organisational and administrative roles included.
14 organisations out of 20 struggle with digital tools: fragmented, poorly integrated systems add duplication and make management harder.
Only 3 organisations out of 20 use AI in an established way. Another 16 see its potential but lack the technical and organisational conditions to apply it.
Communication, AI and grant writing: key skills stay concentrated in a few people and struggle to become a lasting asset of the organisation.
None of the twenty organisations rules out working with public institutions. The willingness to collaborate sits alongside red tape, perceived distance and hard access to funding.
Small towns can bring people closer and make an organisation more visible. That does not by itself guarantee participation, social cohesion or the involvement of young people.
