Status quo and current trends of social innovation. Results of the Ecosystem Mapping Study of the TU Dortmund University (SFS).

Over the past months, the team of the TU Dortmund University in a joint effort with the KoSI project partners has collected a total of 95 cases of framework conditions and best practices of social innovation.

The goal of this mapping study was to gain insight into the German social innovation ecosystem and thus understand the context of success and failure of new initiatives, identify gaps and reflect on current developments, and capture trends. The report of this study was published (in English) by the TU Dortmund University (Social Research Unit) on November 30, 2022. A German-language variant of the publication is in progress.
