Innovate Communities, along with key stakeholders in the Irish social innovation ecosystem, were invited to partake in a membership consortium to support the development of a blueprint for a Social Innovation Strategy and Action Plan. The consortium is working to achieve the following outcomes in Ireland and across EU partners;
- Increased transnational knowledge-sharing between competency centres at EU level
- Improved support mechanisms available for key social innovation stakeholders
- Strengthened public policy and capacity on the national and/or transnational levels to support social innovation
- Strengthened transnational cooperation in developing social innovations
- Increased likelihood that social innovation projects become ‘scaling ready’
- Improved conditions for testing, replication and/or upscaling of social innovations
- Each country overcomes and addresses any gaps in the social innovation ecosystem.
