Accelerating Social Innovation: Smart Ideas for Canada
Winnie Wong, 02/02/2010
To share successful practices and facilitate networking across sectors, the Public Policy Forum, in collaboration with Social Innovation Generation (SiG), organized a national dialogue on social innovation with support from Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC), Imagine Canada, and MaRS. Entitled Accelerating Social Innovation: Smart Ideas for Canada, the multi-sector conference served as a timely platform to explore ways to build on existing innovations and develop new approaches to improve the way we support and work with each other in the 21st century. The conference report highlights successful innovations, captures key recommendations for supporting innovation in Canada, and presents areas for further exploration.
