You SI Net Reload: First edition on social innovation process

E-learning

3-27 June 2024 | Online, Spain

The Social Innovation course tackles modern social challenges, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and community engagement. Participants develop skills for positive, sustainable change through case studies and projects.

The First Edition on Social Innovation Process Course is part of the Youth Social Innovation Network Reload (You SI Net Reload), an innovative pilot project aimed at fostering social innovation and entrepreneurship among young people! The primary goal of You SI Net Reload is to facilitate timely, relevant, and effective communication among all project stakeholders, thereby creating a network of empowered and connected young innovators and entrepreneurs.

The course is aimed at youth workers from Spain, Italy, Morocco, Jordan, Tunisia, and Egypt and offers a dynamic and collaborative platform to explore strategies and tools needed to address contemporary social challenges. From problem analysis to creating innovative solutions, it promotes a holistic approach integrating creativity, critical thinking, and community engagement.

Developed with various objectives in mind, including engaging youth, empowering through education, promoting cross-border cooperation, fostering social innovation, and creating a vibrant community, this course aims to catalyze positive change in communities and beyond.

The course will be delivered online using a mix of lectures, group discussions, case studies, practical workshops, and networking activities. Each session will feature expert presentations, followed by interactive activities and group work.

The course lasts a total of 15 hours, divided into five weekly sessions (3 hours each). The general contents are: 

Session 1: Foundations of Social Innovation

Session 2: Design Thinking, Creative Problem Solving, and Project Drafting

Session 3: Building Sustainable Business Models in Social Innovation

Session 4: Financing and Economic Sustainability

Session 5: Impact Measurement and Scaling Up

Follow-up, mentoring & second edition

Following the conclusion of the First Edition on Social Innovation Process Course, youth workers from Spain, Italy, Morocco, Jordan, Tunisia, and Egypt will be selected from the training participants to oversee social innovation pilot actions. Each country group will be supported locally by an expert in social innovation processes, facilitating the implementation of these pilot actions. The outcomes of these local actions will be documented using digital storytelling techniques, which will be produced by videomaker youth workers participating in an open online course on digital storytelling.

Following the initial training, a second edition will be held online to showcase the results of the social innovation pilot actions. Youth workers leading these actions will share outcomes and receive guidance on sustaining initiatives through fundraising and network building. Best practices and methodologies will be compiled into a toolkit for future reference.

Organiser:

Fundación Desarrollo Social Responsable-Munus (Others)

The Fundación Social Desarrollo Responsable (MUNUS) is comprised of professionals who have been actively involved for over 20 years in various spaces and fields, with a special focus on implementing highly effective methodologies and projects in social intervention. We develop intervention projects for youth and seniors at risk of exclusion, relying on innovative methodologies capable of instigating a change in the behaviours of the participating individuals.
We believe in promoting employability as a mechanism for the integration of individuals facing special difficulties through the realms of culture and the arts. We advocate for social intervention as the primary vehicle for transmitting values, working alongside various public institutions in the design of new policies that lead to a fairer and more socially just reality.
Currently, we are implementing projects in four cities in Spain in the areas of artistic and participatory intervention for community integration, mediation, and neighbourhood revitalization; development of stage skills with women; art and culture initiatives with minors, youth, and adolescents; and job placement for vulnerable youth.
