- Abstract
The paper illustrates an empirical research project concerning the co-creation process in Reggio Emilia's public services and their eff orts to reduce childhood obesity. Th e research is based on a participative evaluation research methodology. The project has been implemented within the framework of the CoSIE project, funded by the Horizon 2020 Research Program -- Innovation Action. It has been led by the Local Health Unit (LHU) of Reggio Emilia, a mid-size town in north-eastern Italy, and Cup2000/Lepida, a public/private corporation delivering ICT for health service in the Emilia-Romagna Region. The empirical research has been conducted by the University of Bologna, using a mixed method multi-dimensional strategy and combining the Action-Research tradition with the approach of the Theory of Change. The theoretical framework reflects on the co-creation process, distinguishing between its diff erent phases. In particular, it defines the co-production and the co-design phase, operationalising them with the concepts of System Integration and Social Integration. This linkage allows the analysis of the involvement of institutional stakeholders and fi nal users in the co-creation process. Many factors including the actors' identity, the participation modalities and the impact of each stakeholder on the service, contribute to the model of co-creation in "the shadow of institutions", characterised by a low level of Social Integration and a high level of System Integration.
