The role of Game-changers in Transformative Social Innovation

KICS has been involved in dialogues with sustainable transition and innovation researchers led by DRIFT (Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands) in a EU project on TRANSIT (TRANsformative Social Innovation Theory). TRANSIT explores the interaction of social innovation with other forms of (transformative) change and seeks to develop a theory of transformative social innovation which is about empowerment and change in society. KICS was invited to participate and share Indian perspectives on social innovation at the synthesis workshop on “The role of Game-changers in Transformative Social Innovation” in which Dr C. Shambu Prasad presented a paper on “Innovating at the Margins: Sustainable Transitions and Game-changing Ideas from SRI in India”. Background information and impressions of the workshop can be found in the workshop agenda, the workshop report , the overview of the paper abstracts and a selection of workshop pictures.
