Tell us your inspiring stories - This is European Social Innovation0

SIX, EUCLID and the European Commission want to know about your social innovations!

There is no shortage of social innovations in Europe. And yet despite this, the field of social innovation has yet to mature enough to be up to the multitude of presenting social challenges.

The European Commission is supporting the Social Innovation Exchange (SIX) and Euclid Network to identify 10 large-scale successful examples of socially innovative initiatives, with the aim of raising the profile of social innovation across Europe and creating an impact beyond the established social innovation community.

Our goal is to showcase 10 socially innovative initiatives which can help people in Europe and beyond to understand and promote social innovation.

The 10 selected projects will be used by the European Commission as case studies in future communication about social innovation in the EU. The projects will also be featured in an official European Commission publication on social innovation which will be distributed across Europe.

Download more information and visit the This is European Social Innovation webpage and have a look at some of the entries that we have already received from across Europe.

Watch videos from Geoff Mulgan, CEO of The Young Foundation and Peter Droell, Head of the Innovation Unit at the European Commission, launching the initiative

Application deadline: 3 September
