Temotiva selected for the Equilab Citizen Laboratory of the Generalitat Valenciana

A social and technological innovation project for emotional wellbeing and prevention in contexts of vulnerability, alongside the community.

Temotiva selected for Equilab

At Temotiva, we believe that emotional wellbeing should not be a luxury, something unattainable that people can only dream about, but something everyday and accessible also in neighborhoods that need it most. That's why we're particularly excited to share that Temotiva Innovation Lab has been selected to be part of the Equilab Citizen Laboratory of the Generalitat Valenciana, the ecosystem where this project is born.

What is Equilab?

Equilab is an open and participatory citizen innovation laboratory created to reduce health inequalities and bring real solutions to neighborhoods. It is driven by the Generalitat Valenciana through Fisabio, together with València Innovation Capital, the Universitat Politècnica de València, FECYT and the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities.

Its objective is simple to explain, but ambitious in its execution: to design and test, together with the community, new ways of caring for health and wellbeing in everyday life.

What is Temotiva's role in Equilab?

Within Equilab we will develop Community Temotiva, a project focused on emotional wellbeing and prevention in contexts of vulnerability. We are committed to combining accessible technology, community support, everyday self-care and co-creation processes with people from those same neighborhoods so that solutions make sense in their real circumstances.

This translates into very practical and simple actions: workshops and face-to-face activities, spaces to share experiences, self-care resources that can be integrated into daily life without requiring large resources or time, and easy-to-use digital tools.

Among these digital tools is our Temotiva app, designed to help people identify what they feel, understand their emotional patterns and take small steps toward greater self-care. A support that is especially valuable for people in vulnerable situations.

Our approach is preventive, accessible and replicable. We aim to act before distress reaches its limit, drawing on psychological evidence and social innovation to generate sustainable changes that can later be replicated to other territories and institutions.

We are looking for people who want to get involved

Equilab's call for applications remains open to people interested in collaborating in the project development. If you live in the neighborhoods involved, work in the social or health sector, or simply care about emotional wellbeing in your environment, you can join this co-creation process.

Beyond Equilab: how we collaborate with organizations

In addition to community work on projects like Equilab, at Temotiva Innovation Lab we collaborate with companies, universities and public organizations that want to care for the emotional wellbeing of their teams, groups or communities. We design in-person and online workshops, group dynamics and training activities based on applied psychology, with a practical approach adapted to the real needs of each organization.

We also make available to organizations our digital emotional wellbeing platform, designed to continuously support people and groups through content, resources and self-care tools.

Temotiva was created to accompany those who carry much in their minds and to bring emotional wellbeing to contexts where it is needed most.

We will continue to share progress on this project and new initiatives in upcoming editions.
