Addressing wicked problems through social entrepreneurship

 

Sharon Zivkovic is the Founder and Principal Facilitator of Community Capacity Builders which has been delivering social entrepreneurship and active citizenship programs since 2006.

 

In 2016 Sharon and Emily Humphreys established Wicked Lab.  In 2018 the OECD included Wicked Lab’s online tool as a highlight in its Embracing Innovation in Government Global Trends 2018 Report.  This year the OECD has included a case study on Wicked Lab’s Systemic Innovation Lab methodology in its Transformation of Public Value: Cities as the Playground for the Future report.

 

It is now widely accepted that complex social policy problems (wicked problems) cannot be solved through the predetermined solutions of individual social entrepreneurs.  Given this acknowledgment, how can the initiatives of social entrepreneurs contribute towards addressing wicked problems?  By referring to the characteristics of wicked problems, and communities as complex systems, Sharon will discuss the vital role social entrepreneurs’ initiatives can play in addressing wicked problems if these initiatives are recognised as part of a solution ecosystem.
