Social innovation refers to new strategies, concepts, and organizations that meet social needs in areas like working conditions, education, community development, and health. It aims to strengthen civil society. A social entrepreneur recognizes a social problem and uses business principles to create a social venture to achieve social change. Social enterprises are led by a social or environmental mission, trade to fulfill that mission, derive income from trade, and reinvest profits back into their mission. The document discusses social innovation in Western Australia, with a mission to facilitate collaboration and partnership to create resilient communities through innovation. It outlines tools like design thinking and partners like the Australian Social Innovation Alliance.
