The document discusses different terms used in social innovation like social entrepreneurship, social business, and social enterprise. It explains that social entrepreneurship refers to organizations that work to create lasting systems change through identifying unjust suffering, developing innovative solutions, and creating new equilibriums. Social businesses are for-profit companies with social missions where profits are reinvested rather than distributed. Social enterprises use market-based approaches to advance their social missions. The document uses examples like Teach for America, TOHL, Ten Thousand Villages, and Reforest Patagonia to illustrate where organizations fall on spectra of non-profit to for-profit and disruptive systems change to offsetting expenses through goods/services.
This document analyzes the entrepreneurial market in Guatemala to identify business design opportunities in social entrepreneurship. It finds that while Guatemala has high levels of entrepreneurial activity, many new businesses fail because entrepreneurs do not fully understand or solve people's problems. It identifies a need for consulting services that help social entrepreneurs create profitable businesses through solving social issues. The proposed business design would provide personalized consulting to co-create social ventures with multi-disciplinary teams. This would help generate impact investments and businesses while helping entrepreneurs succeed financially and address Guatemala's social challenges.
Social Entrepreneurship & Measuring Social Impact: 101Dr. Catherine Lada
Social entrepreneurship aims to solve complex social problems through sustainable business models. It differs from traditional non-profits and businesses in pursuing a double bottom line of social impact and financial sustainability. Social entrepreneurs must understand the embedded context and ecosystem in which problems exist to develop effective solutions. "Wicked problems" are especially difficult to solve because they are situated within complex social systems. Truly addressing wicked problems requires considering all relevant actors and implementing coordinated multi-level solutions. Scaling solutions also requires understanding how approaches must be adapted to different environments and contexts. While measuring social impact is challenging, frameworks provide guidance on assessing evidence of impact at preliminary, moderate, and strong levels.
This document provides an introduction to social entrepreneurship. It discusses key concepts such as using business models to create social impact, considering multiple bottom lines, and recognizing opportunities to address social problems. Community assets and stakeholders are important to analyze. Developing the right product, market focus, and business model are also covered. Overall the document presents frameworks for understanding social entrepreneurship and developing social enterprises.
The document discusses entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship. It notes that there is a large gap between the youth population and available jobs in India that must be filled through entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship addresses social and environmental issues to create lasting change. Examples of successful social ventures provided include Grameen Bank, which provides loans to rural poor in Bangladesh, Jaipur Foot which provides affordable prosthetics, and Arvind Eye Care Clinic which provides free surgeries to the poor.
Mkt1019 characteristics of the social entrepreneur 1Tim Curtis
Social entrepreneurship involves using entrepreneurial approaches to create social value through innovative solutions to social problems. Social entrepreneurs are change agents who pursue new opportunities to fulfill their mission of social impact through initiatives like microfinance that provide small loans to the world's poorest people. The rise of social entrepreneurship is driven by trends like declining government involvement, a focus on self-reliance, and changes in funding opportunities for social sectors.

Introduction to social entrepreneurshipFredrik Björk
The document discusses the definition and components of social entrepreneurship. It defines social entrepreneurship as creating social and/or ecological value in a sustainable way. Successful social entrepreneurship requires generating financial surplus to ensure long-term commitment. It provides examples of social enterprises like Baisikeli that provide bicycles to improve access to opportunities, Moomsteatern theater group for people with disabilities, and Specialisterne that hires people with autism for software testing and programming jobs. The challenges for social entrepreneurship are developing support structures and resisting being seen as just "nice people doing good" rather than agents of change.
This document discusses social entrepreneurship in India through a case study analysis. It provides background on social issues in India related to water, sanitation, and maternal health. Several social enterprises are highlighted, including Husk Power Systems which provides renewable energy to rural villages, and Zubaida Bai's company which designs affordable clean birth kits. The methodology section outlines how the study was conducted through interviews and comparative analysis of social enterprises. Key findings indicate that government effectiveness, social values, and education levels impact social entrepreneurship. The conclusion states that social enterprises prioritize social impact over profits by addressing social needs.
Social entrepreneurship uses business principles to create social change and solve social problems on a large scale. Social entrepreneurs recognize problems in society and provide innovative solutions to address social and environmental issues in a way that creates social value and returns. Examples include Muhammad Yunus, who founded the Grameen Bank to provide microloans to empower women, and Reese Fernandez, who co-founded Rags2Riches to connect weavers in the Philippines directly to customers and improve their livelihoods. The work of social entrepreneurs aims to create sustainable solutions that advance social goals.

This brief deck shares our process in applying user-centered design principles and processes to drive innovation in emerging markets. We engage with users and beneficiaries in their contexts to understand drivers behind behaviors and perceptions, then convert the insights gleaned from such encounters to action plans for products and services.
How can we collaborate with people to help them build their resilience? Get under the skin of the culture and the lives people live. Identify people’s feelings and experiences of community and understand what people think is shaped by different values and by the environment and infrastructure around them. The future of collaboration could bring many opportunities but people find it more difficult to live and act together than before. How can we help people…and communities build their resilience? Understand people’s different situations and capabilities to develop pathways that help them build resilient relationships. Help people experience and practice change together. Help people grow everyday practices into sustainable projects. Turn people’s everyday motivations into design principles. Support infrastructure that connects different cultures of collaboration. Build relationships with people designing in collaboration for the future…now.
The document provides an overview of a social design toolkit that aims to support community change agents. The toolkit outlines a participatory community design process involving mapping the stakeholder system, identifying community needs through interviews, brainstorming potential solutions, prototyping concepts, and validating ideas through workshops. It uses the example of a neighborhood in San Francisco undergoing revitalization to illustrate how the design thinking principles and methods in the toolkit were applied to understand residents' desired experiences of community, beauty, and security and develop solutions to address issues like crime and lack of opportunities.

This document discusses how semiotics can help brands navigate modern cultural branding challenges. It explains that semiotics examines the relationship between brands and culture through signs and their meanings. By understanding dominant, residual, and emergent cultural codes, semiotics can help brands identify opportunities to position themselves to connect with consumers on a cultural level. The document provides examples of how semiotics has helped brands reposition by leveraging shifting cultural trends beyond their categories.
Summary of VERGE (ethnographic futures framework devised by Richard Lum and M...Wendy Schultz
The document discusses the VERGE/EFF (Ethnographic Futures Framework), a scenario planning method focused on how changes impact human experiences. It was created by Dr. Richard Lum and Michele Bowman to explore how concepts, social structures, technologies, production/consumption, and resources may change between now and 2050 given certain drivers. Groups used the framework to develop three plausible 2050 scenarios by discussing impacts, key actors/organizations, tensions, and timeline of events.
This document discusses designing for culturally diverse contexts in India. It proposes researching the influence of designers' and users' cultures on the design process and outcomes. The research would develop a framework to facilitate cross-cultural collaboration through effective communication and empathy. It would also formulate a vision for sustainable collective futures reflecting local cultures. The document outlines study areas, research questions, methodology including case studies and a virtual platform, and a 3-year time plan to develop deliverables and publications. The goal is a culture-centered approach to design that bridges designers and users.
Presentation by Peter Jones at RSD4 Banff, Alberta, 2015. Society can be defined as an object of culture, as culture is a medium for the collective development of social systems. Societies are not designed by a deliberative process, but are social entities that emerge over time as response to historicity and cultural development, and function largely by tacit agreement as observed in social norms.
In the 1960’s social systemicists such as Ozbekhan, Fuller, and Doxiadis advocated deliberative civic planning as a normative science for designing sustainable and preferable societies and settlements. Even though their original methodologies of normative planning (Ozbekhan), anticipatory design science (Fuller) and ekistics (Doxiadis) did not gain the results hoped in applications over time, these arguments could be lodged against most systems methodologies. Yet when we consider their views of the human capacity to design future outcomes as a serious social and political project, we in our fragmented polities in the postmodern era might take heed. An argument follows that we, as cultural innovators in our own societies, having access to the wisdom of successful past transitions or redirections, have also failed to motivate and enact changes requisite to our common concerns.
A systemic design approach is proposed toward constructing such idealizations as a necessary initial condition. The approach reconciles wisdom from our sociocultural histories with collaborative design practices of the current era to construct shared pathways to desired and feasible societal futures.
How many times have you seen design solutions that showcased male chauvinist attitudes or marketing content that exhibited racial or gender biases?

3. The document also discusses ethical leadership and decision-making, focusing on developing emotional intelligence, making principled decisions, and reframing dilemmas into solutions that balance competing values.
Doing it differently - making sense of the futureSIX
The document discusses how design can help drive societal transformation towards sustainability. It argues that a new economic model is needed that is based on resource efficiency and quality of life rather than productivity and consumption. Local distributed economies and new lifestyles that consume less will be important. Social innovation, design, and redesigning industrial systems can help shift emphasis to social and environmental outcomes. The conference "Changing the Change" will outline research showing how design can actively contribute to the social learning needed for this transition.

Introduction to Implementing the Balanced Value Impact Model - Workshop for N...Simon Tanner
The Balanced Value Impact Model is intended to aid the thinking and decision making of those wishing to engage in Impact Assessment. It also acts as a guide through the process of Impact Assessment to enable the core values most appropriate to the assessment to be brought to the fore and given a balanced consideration when evaluating outcomes. It presumes that the assessment will be measuring change within an ecosystem for a digital resource.
For the purposes of this Model, the definition of Impact is: The measurable outcomes arising from the existence of a digital resource that demonstrate a change in the life or life opportunities of the community.
Who should use the BVI Model?
The aim of this workshop is to provide key information and a strong model for the following primary communities of use:
Memory institutions and cultural heritage organizations, such as libraries, museums and archives.
Funding bodies who wish to promote evidence-based impact assessment of activities they support.
Holders and custodians of special collections.
Managers, project managers and fundraisers who are seeking to justify further investment in digital resources.
Academics looking to establish digital projects and digital scholarship collaborations with collection owners.
Publishing, media and business sectors which may be considering the best means to measure the impact of their digital resources and are looking to collaborate and align with collection owners, with academia or with memory institutions.
Impact Assessment practitioners considering an Impact Assessment of a digital resource.
What the workshop will cover:
Where the value and impact can be found in digital resources,
Who are the beneficiaries gaining from the impact and value,
How to measure change and impact for digital resources,
How to do an Impact Assessment using the Balanced Value Impact Model, and
How to present a convincing evidence-based argument for digital resources?
The Workshop will include case studies of how the BVI Model is being implemented at present.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Crop Drop wants to sell a larger
volume of veg (or larger bags).
We need to look into which
households are more likely and
willing to eat veg on a more
regular basis, but also open to
the concept of eating seasonal,
unconventional veg, which means
they are resourceful and creative
with their cooking.
