This document summarizes information from a website about social innovation. It outlines numerous social problems around the world such as unemployment, poverty, lack of access to education and electricity. It then introduces social innovation as a solution to address social issues more effectively and efficiently. Specific examples are given, such as Grameen Bank which provides microloans to empower those who are traditionally unbankable.

5. THE SOLUTION
SocialInnovation
• Socialinnovationconcepts andpractices,
defined asanovel solutiontoasocial
problemthatis moreeffective, efficient,
sustainable,or justthancurrentsolutions,
areextendedsuccessfullyworldwide.
• Thevalue createdbysocial innovation
accruesprimarilytosocietyratherthanto
privateindividuals,butguided bythree
drivers:
– Exchange of ideas and values (Web 2:0
factor, increasingconcernof climate
change,poverty, hunger,etc.) undermine
– Shifts in roles and relationships (parents,
family, individual, entrepreneurs, self-
employed, etc.)
– Integration of private capital with public
and philanthropic support (PPP, CSR, social
business, etc.),
Example: Grameen Bankin Bangladesh
hasbeen lending smallsumsofmoney,
mostly to ruralpoor women so theycan
engage in micro enterprises,but also to
collective groups. Theinnovation of
GrameenBank is that it lends money to
people who would not be eligible in the
normal commercial sense
(unbankable). People are helped to
determine the best way to satisfy their
needs and are helped by the bank's
officers in the villages.
