Social Innovation has been increasingly perceived as the answer to the rising number of European societal challenges. However, it is extremely difficult for professionals to obtain high quality training on what social innovation actually offers and, more importantly, how it can be done in practice. The Academy ams to overcome this and be the first European, fully online management training programme focusing exclusively on social innovation. It will target the managers of companies, NGOs/civil society organisations and intermediaries (hubs, incubators, labs etc.) as well as (aspiring) social entrepreneurs willing to learn how to set up and run social innovation initiatives to solve the most pressing societal challenges of our times.
