The Other Innovation: Unleashing Canada's Capacity For Good

Paul Klein of Impakt and Tim Draimin of Social Innovation Generation develop a 10-point plan for improving social innovation in Canada. Read the article that was published in Policy Magazine here: https://www.policymagazine.ca/pdf/26/PolicyMagazineMayJune-2017-KleinDraimin.pdf

"While the Trudeau government has made innovation a pillar of its economic policy, there has been no targeted focus on social innovation. Despite Canada's comparatively secure government-funded social safety net, there are gaps in our social and sustainability fabric that can best be addressed by social innovators harnessing our capacity for positive, constructive change." - Paul Klein & Tim Draimin
