Here is the description of this system: "The proximity social system acts concretely on two axes: socio-sanitary info-orienation and stimulation of social ties. It is for the latter that the four proximity social antennas (ASP) constitute an essential resource for associative actors, at neighborhood level. Distributed over the different sectors of the Geneva villus, ASPs indeed have expertise and resources which are able to strengthen the power to act of associations:
- First of all, ASPs can offer methodological support, Whether it is governance issues, advice on the mobilization of resources or support during requests for grants, For example.
- On the other hand, ASPs can provide operational support, by facilitating or participating in the realization of projects, by mobilizing volunteers or providing material support, such as the provision of neighborhood spaces.
- Eventually, ASPs also develop relational support, by their fine knowledge of the networks in each district. They therefore greatly facilitate the link with the various partners of the neighborhood networks, Interactions with the various municipal services and can act as a powerful an information relay. "This meeting will allow you to better understand the possible partnerships that your association can establish with the social service city of Geneva.
