  • First Online:
Designing Pilot Projects as Boundary Objects

Abstract

This explains the MODU.Lares Project Intervention by describing the development process and the idea of the System-ability as a promoter of sustainable and innovative changes. The chapter presents also a discussion of the elements used as Boundary Objectsduring the research—prototypes , meetings , exhibitions as well as pilot project, in its whole. This action-based project is an important contribution to the local context because it updates the MSEs’ conditions through questionnaires and field research (the most recent official data of the sector regarded 2006). Hence, even though this research represents a small sample in the universe of an estimated 800 MSEs (among formal and informal ones), the experience serves as a base for future works and provides insights on how to create strategies for the sector, involving more MSEs.
