What are Social Innovations?
Social innovations are activities that create new solutions to social challenges—with the aim of meeting social needs and strengthening social relationships, cooperation, and community capacity to act.​
They are not just products or services but new practices, models, and processes that encourage collaboration across different sectors (public, private, civil society) and lay the foundations for a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable society.​
