FN, to the best of my knowledge let me respond.

Creativity: No particular word. In salcete we borrow from the Portuguese word,
"part" and will say he/she has that "part" roughly translated to
inclination/aptitude.
Interaction: Again no word in Salcete, borrowed from Portuguese - mixture.
Mobilisation: Again no word, borrowed from Portuguese, commese.
Connecting people: Will use the word "sogle munis"
Participatory: Again "sogle munis"
Accessible: No word. Closest would be "vat aha"
Inspired: kalzant sonne
Sharing: Sogle bitor
Cooperation: Sogle bitor
Action: Commece
Change: Mudance, mudar
In Salcete atleast I'm sure all of these are derivatives from another language.
Also, we are very smart like the French. When we don't have a word, we make one
up by putting together two or three older words.
Best,
