The Council will launch the first cohort of “NGO Changemakers Incubation Scheme”, and agency members are cordially invited to participate in the coming briefing session. In view of the changes of socio-economic context in the recent years, social problems have become increasingly complex. In planning and implementing services, organizations often need to apply innovative thinking and build cross-sectoral networks in order to engender greater impact. This project aims to enable NGO colleagues in “network building” and “co-creation”, so as to facilitate organization’s internal development.
This project use ‘Design Thinking’ as the learning framework and ‘Food X Social Inclusion” as the theme. Through a range of activities such as “Design Thinking Bootcamp” and the “Cross-Sectoral Internship”, we hope to incubate a group of ‘NGO changemakers’. With the provision of subsidy and prototype fund, we also hope to actualize innovation at the organizational level.
