Abstract
Applied Geography can be used in all sub-areas of geography, but it appears as a particularly effective approach in studying planning strategies. It aims to apply existing methodological knowledge to new objects. This procedure requires constant reflection on: existing theoretical concepts - practical challenges. Establishing a dialogue between university and civil society in terms of research and communication is therefore important. In this book, social innovation and urban development are taken as the starting point of research. The present work is a re-edition of original papers which have already been published in the Spanish-speaking world. It aims to demonstrate the actual basis of descriptive work on social innovation and territorial development in Latin America. One of theprincipal findings is that the basic concept of geographic innovation processes could be adapted to social innovations in the local administration of the metropolitan district of Quito, and that an innovation process could start, from a territorial point of view, in the Global South.Link to publications or other datasets
