Social innovation is the practice of using creativity to develop solutions which improve the well being of people & society. It promotes collaborative action, creative thinking & innovative action to address social need. It uses the experience & insight of those impacted & those concerned to come up with new solutions & approaches. Social innovation is a way of making change. How you make that change is as important as what change you want to bring about. Successful social innovation is informed & characterized by the values of empowerment, fairness, inclusion & well-being. In fact, the purpose of social innovation we believe is to bring about a fairer, more equal world! Social innovation can help to address local, national & global challenges in our world. Our belief is that by learning social innovation - how to innovate for social good - we give people the tools to bring about the change that is needed.
