This qualitative exploratory study investigates the nature of SV created by 14 HSPs, representing a diverse range of human service organizations (HSOs), and examines ‘why’ and ‘how’ they innovate. In addition, the study examines HSPs’ current understanding and practices related to social entrepreneurship (SE). The study findings highlight that increased accountability and new funding opportunities challenged HSPs to innovate. HSPs created SV by addressing new unmet needs, developing new collaborations, and employing alternative marketing strategies, thereby ensuring the financial sustainability of their programs and organizations, and promoting social and economic justice. Different understandings of SE were voiced based on the educational backgrounds of HSPs. Without formal training in SE, HSPs trained in social work appeared to use various components of the SE process, though in a haphazard fashion compared to those with a non-social work academic training. We suggest that the graduate curriculum across various disciplines should formally include principles and behaviors related to social innovation and entrepreneurship.

While there is a considerable social innovation activity in Australia, it is not well-enabled by policy frameworks, and is often not documented or evaluated.

With a history of cooperative economics since European Contemporary approaches to social innovation in Australia settlement, and a demonstrably enterprising not for profit have to date focused largely on social enterprise sector, there is well-established practice in Australia in using development, new approaches to social finance and social the market to progress social goals.

  • Social Innovation and Why It Has Policy Significance
    Social innovation and why it has policy significance. Author: Adams, David; Hess, Michael Article Type: Report Geographic Code: 8AUST Date: Dec 1, 2010 Words: 7371 Publication: Economic and Labour Relations Review ISSN: 1035-3046 Introduction Social innovation represents a very simple idea--that innovative social action can create social value beyond the capability of existing systems. Social innovation can both create new ways of addressing old issues and accelerate rates of social change. For public policy interventions, a key proposition is that social innovation may be understood as a process that has distinctive preconditions and stages, and those preconditions and stages can be understood and acted upon to promote innovation. Alternatively if no positive effort is made to identify and facilitate social innovation processes, policy interventions may well create barriers and the potential leverage of social innovation will be lost. While practice in this area, led by innovative community sector and public managers is rushing ahead, theoretical commentary, which could lead to the development of models of practice, has been less evident. One obvious way to remedy this is to search for a clear definition of social innovation. This, however, runs the danger of leading into the mazes of social and innovation theory. Rather than doing that, our enquiry starts with a face value rubric under which innovation occurs when a new idea (or combination of old ideas) forms a different way of thinking and acting that changes existing ideas and/or practices to create a social benefit. In any case, for policy practitioners, the most important issue is not to define social innovation but to recognise it.

The AKU Annual Surgical Conferences has indeed provided the Aga Khan University, particularly the Department of Surgery, a platform to maintain its reputation as regional academic leaders. We have been able to build upon last year’s conference both in terms of the scale, and the scope. This year’s theme and scientific program on ‘Global Surgery’ is an integral part of Global Health. Although the history of Global Health goes back to the post-world war II era, Global Surgery remained somewhat a neglected segment of the UN and WHO’s efforts in public health initiatives. It has only been in this decade that Global Surgery has started gaining attention. The main reason for this focus grew as the non-communicable diseases became more prominent: when the burden of surgical diseases and a lack of appropriate treatment in Low- and Middle-Income Countries became quite evident. The assumed cost associated with the treatment of surgical problems kept the leaders of the Global Health shying away from this aspect of Public Health.
