2 hrs confidence: 
We seek to promote/boost Explanation: The phrasing in spanish is ambiguous. It could either mean that they want to mobilize intelligence and creativity (unlikely), or that they want to spur, or boost intelligence and creativity (which is my interpretation). Secondly, the "se" of "Se trata" is not refering to a concrete noun. This, out of context, means roughly "this is about.." but in this context I would suggest either: "We seek to", or "Our goal is to", or, going back to the previous sentence, "We aim to attain this by..." . I suggest you go about it in that direction. Example sentence(s):

It’s very difficult to change corporate behaviour but this conference has succeeded in **mobilising a collective intelligence** to take the argument forward.” www.hhc.rca.ac.uk/CMS/files/IncludeNewsletter2003.rtf Professor Smith argues that sustainable societies will depend on intelligent design – not in the quasi-fundamentalist sense of an attempt to impose an iron-age world picture on 21st Century society, but rather, in the sense of “designing intelligently”: **mobilising and using the collective intelligence** of people at large to make a better world. http://research.newport.ac.uk/displayPage.aspx?object_id=200... And we need to more effectively **mobilise** the innovation diversity that we currently have in order to cohesively argue for the sorts of policy and institutional change needed to create the space for further diversity to emerge — i.e. a virtuous spiral of innovation practice and policy learning. http://www.future-agricultures.org/farmerfirst/files/D1_Hall... |
