What do you understand by the concept of ’social innovation’?


What do you understand by the concept of ’social innovation’?

Social innovation is the concept that tries to find new tools to satisfy the needs of society, it is the strategy that goes beyond what already exists by thinking out of the box in order to create innovations that produce benefits to the society, whether in a social or in a complete new interactive level of knowledge. It is a conjecture of small modifications within the social organization of communities.
Social innovation is what we can call of “world evolution”, as it can be described as a concept that never stop searching new ways of evolution, as the society is in constant necessity to create new entities.
If we go back in history we will easily find Social innovation, from the discovery of the wheel in the pre history era all the way to the World Wide Web in our days.
The development of social innovations is today more noticed that was before as we devote most of our resources to the development of new technologies.
Social innovation is the piece in society that have been pushing us to meet the “unmet” necessities of the world, by completing in each generation the necessaries changes in our social concept of the world.
In sum, as said by the Oxford Business school, “Social Innovation are ideas that work”, by using creativity and invention to create new ideas with utility in the work market and in the world to in this way achieve social goals.
