The Innovation Zones team is working with the Greater Shankill Children and Young People Zone and the Colin Neighbourhood Partnership to co-design a social innovation learning in communities (SILC) course.
Iterations of the course are being developed bespoke to each community with aims to:
Capacity build within the community on the foundations of evidence and social innovation;
Improve community practitioners’ and members of the community understanding of evidence and social innovation;
Provide the ability to reflect on how to design, implement, evaluate and apply social innovation in current and future professional lives.
To learn more about SILC, please contact Dr Liam O'Hare.
This work has been funded by Urban Villages Initiative (The Executive Office).
