The Faculty of Social and Community Services (FSCS) has launched a Social Innovation Survey to gather the insights, opinions, and ideas of the entire Humber community. This survey will help inform, shape, and advance Humber’s Centre of Social Innovation. Although there are numerous definitions of social innovation, it is fundamentally about developing new solutions to complex social opportunities and challenges. Humber’s potential for social innovation focuses on mobilizing multidisciplinary ideas, new technologies, and entrepreneurial thinking to address current societal challenges on local, national, and global levels.

A broad range of stakeholders have been invited to share their experiences, expertise, and perspectives including faculty, staff, students, community partners, and Program Advisory Committee members. The Centre of Social Innovation will make up part of Humber’s network of Centres of Innovation (COIs) which is pioneering a new model of education that brings together interdisciplinary teams of faculty, students, and partners to solve complex, industry-relevant problems. This network is supported by exceptional resources including six Faculties, each with a specialized focus; expertise in more than 180 program areas; 11 Centres of Excellence; and the Office of Research & Innovation.

This survey closes on January 31, 2022 and the draw will be held on February 1, 2022.
