SESSION on DESIGN THINKING TO MOBILIZE , TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION FOR SOCIAL CHALLENGES

The aim of this symposium is to highlight the innova- tive approaches towards address social challenges.

There has been growing interest in promoting “social innovation” to imbed innovation in the wider economy by fostering opportunities for new actors, such as non-profit foundations, to steer research and collaborate with firms and entrepreneurs and to tackle social challenges. User and consumers are also relevant as they play an important role in demanding innovation for social goals but also as actors and suppliers of solutions.

Although the innovation process is now much more open and receptive to social influences, progress on social innovation will call for the greater involvement of stakeholders who can mobilize science, technol- ogy and innovation to address social challenges.

Thus, the session requires to be approached from holistic and multidisciplinary mind and needs to cover the issue from different aspects by seven inter- national speakers. Contents

In sum, this Sustainability trend may induce a new paradigm of innovation, moving from the traditional linear perception of innovation into a more concerted way of conceiving innovation.

The increasing complexity of problems facing our nation as well as our planet offers immense challenges The Annual Meeting is one of the most widely recognized pan- for coordinated, innovative problem-solving. So many important decisions on national security, education, science events, with hundreds of networking opportunities health, sustainability of the planet, and the exploration of the universe depend on new-found knowledge and broad global media coverage. An exceptional array of gained by scientists and engineers. Expectations that science and technology will rise to these speakers will gather at the 2011 AAAS Annual Meeting from challenges are widely expected. 17-21 February in Washington, D.C.

Many of these problems require an approach across several disciplines and areas of technical expertise. The meeting's theme—Science Without Borders— A diverse work force will also be necessary so that maximal talent and different approaches can be integrates interdisciplinary science, both across research and utilized. To train such a work force successfully presents the challenge of attracting talent from a range of teaching, that utilizes diverse approaches as well as the backgrounds and transmitting content while maintaining relevance. diversity of its practitioners. The program will highlight science and teaching that cross conventional borders or break out The theme ̶ Science Without Borders ̶ integrates the practice of science, both in research and from silos, especially in ground-breaking areas of research teaching, that utilizes multidisciplinary approaches.

Appendix Preliminary Press Program 2011 AAAS Annual Meeting Science Without Borders Join Us in Washington, D.C. for Science and Fun

Cover symposia on the implications of finding other worlds, the next steps in brain-computer interfaces, frontiers in , the next big solar storm, and more. Talk to leaders in science, technology, engineering, education, and policy-making. Gather story ideas for the year ahead. Mingle with colleagues at receptions and social events. It’s all available at the world’s largest interdisciplinary science forum. Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the AAAS Board of Directors, it is my distinct honor to invite you to the 177th Meeting of the 2011 AAAS Annual Meeting American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). The Annual Meeting is one of the most widely recognized pan-science events, with hundreds of networking oppor- tunities and broad global media coverage. An exceptional array of speakers and attendees will gather at the Walter Science Without Borders E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. You will have the opportunity to interact with scientists, engineers, educators, and policy-makers who will present the latest thinking and developments in their areas 17–21 February, Washington, D.C. of expertise. The meeting’s theme — Science Without Borders — integrates interdisciplinary science, across both research and teaching, that utilizes diverse approaches as well as the diversity of its practitioners. The program will highlight science and teaching that cross conventional borders or break out from silos, especially in ground-breaking areas of research that highlight new and exciting developments in support of science, technology, and education. Sessions will feature strong scientific content to illustrate the interface of different disciplines or will exemplify a 58 multidisciplinary approach to problem solving. 59 Everyone is welcome at the AAAS Annual Meeting. Those who join us will have the opportunity to choose among a broad range of activities, including plenary and topical lectures by some of the world’s leading scientists and engineers, multidisciplinary symposia, cutting-edge seminars, career development workshops, and an international exhibition.
