From European Benchmarks to Italian Policy Scenarios: Validity, Limits, and Calibration of Adoption Simulations #28
Description
Operational Recommendations
Option 1 – Refine the Simulations (Recommended) 🔧📊
Re-run the Service Incentives (SI) scenario by incorporating:
- Reduced institutional trust assumptions 🏛️⬇️
- Administrative capacity constraints ⚙️
- Regional differentiation (North / Center / South) 🗺️
- Explicit municipal readiness scenarios 🏙️
👉 Goal: improve realism and national-level validity for the Italian context.
Option 2 – Keep the Simulations, Change the Framing 🧠📐
Maintain current SI results but present them as:
- An optimistic policy envelope 🌟
- A city-level intervention scenario 🏙️
- A non-scalable baseline (upper bound, not national average) 🚧
👉 Goal: preserve analytical value while avoiding overgeneralization.
