A crash course in changing the world.
My favorite secret to social innovation was this post, "Provide skills, not just finished technologies. The current revolution in design for developing countries is the notion of co-creation, of teaching the skills necessary to create the solution,rather than simply providing the solution. By involving the community throughout the design process, you can help equip people to innovate and contribute to the evolution of the product. Furthermore, they acquire the skills needed to create solutions to a much wider variety of problems. They are empowered." I thought that this post was so important and so very true. You cannot create true social innovation and change without teaching skills. There has always been the saying give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll be able to eat for his wh*** life.
