This document summarizes a presentation on timebanking, ICT, employment, and employability given in Brussels. It discusses two case studies of timebanking models in Emilia Romagna, Italy and Andalusia, Spain. Key findings include:
- Timebanking pursues different objectives and models depending on regional and national contexts.
- ICT use in timebanks presents both opportunities like increasing membership but also challenges like a generational digital gap.
- Initial recommendations are to promote bottom-up processes, explore employability objectives, support innovation, and coordinate supportive policies.
