Public Sector: Growing Demands and Limited Resources New demands: Growing number of additional tasks, new societal
challenges like demographic change, …
Modified functions: Outsourcing of tasks, state owned enterprises, ….
Limited resources: Financial crises, legitimation discussions, …
Negative image: not productive enough, low efficiency and effectiveness, corruption, …
Subsidiary responsibility: repairing “market failure”, social inclusion, ….
Every sector is doing its own thing and refers to its own responsibility
New Concept is needed? New Role of Public Sector? / New Potential through Social Innovation?
The Challenge

• a new combination or new configuration of social practices • in certain areas of action or social contexts • prompted by certain actors or constellations of actors • in an intentional targeted manner with the goal of better satisfying or
answering needs and problems than is possible on the basis of established practices
• socially accepted and diffused widely throughout society or in certain societal sub-areas
• finally institutionalized as a new social practice.

Social Innovation: Driving Force of Social Change Extending knowledge about social innovation
Integrating theories and research methodologies to advance understanding of SI leading to a comprehensive new paradigm of innovation.
Undertaking European and global mapping of SI, thereby addressing different social, economic, cultural, historical and religious contexts in Europe and eight major world regions.
Ensuring relevance for policy makers and practitioners through in-depth analyses and case studies in seven policy fields, with cross European and world region comparisons, foresight and policy round tables.

Social Innovation: Placed on Different Levels
Social Innovation takes place mainly at the regional and local level, where people live and work
Sectoral Level is of economic relevance, National and EU: more policy related
Therefore two regional – local examples of Social Innovation in the public sector: Social Innovation Centres as Enablers Social Innovation Process: Establishing new structures for Lifelong
Learning
14
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundZentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung
Organisation of innovation processes linking civil society, economy, science and public policy
Establishing support structures for social entrepreneurs and social innovators (incubators, centres of social innovation)
Identification of venture capital for social entrepreneurs Support of innovative projects with social issues Empowering of citizens and social innovators
(competence building) Systematic utilisation of the potential of universities and
research institutes to solve societal challenges (“Social Responsibility”)
15
Regional Centres of Social Innovation
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundZentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung
Centre for Social Innovation (Toronto) A social enterprise (founded 2004)
with a mission to catalyze social innovation in Toronto and around the world is acting as a venture capitalist for social change
Is comprehending itself as “an engine for impact”, which goes beyond the mere functions of an incubator for projects
Provides strategic advice, full-on management and back-end administrative services (“whatever it takes to help an initiative find its feet and actualize its potential”)
Projects include: social entrepreneurship among youth, artivism as a strategy to engage citizens in the transformation of their local environment while building a strong community
Models developed: shared spaces for social innovation, community bonds, constellation model of governance

Tilburg Social Innovation Lab Four institutions for higher education join
forces to make a visible contribution to the development of the region Brabant as the Region for Social Innovation
Involving regional stakeholders to (co-) create innovative solutions for societal challenges through creative knowledge, unexpected inputs and daring experiments
Providing suitable interdisciplinary knowledge of the Social Sciences and Humanities in co-creation with education, entrepreneurs and other stakeholders
Social Innovation Initiatives program: problem finding, brainstorm forum “Blue Sky Session”, explorer teams, test teams/living lab

Idea: Improving the Learning Structures by Changing the Perspective
From an institutional to a strict learner’s and learner and learning process perspective
To new overall and comprehensive structural principles of the education system
Organised as an overarching regional-local social innovation process improving, changing, and creating new social practices concerning
social roles, relations, norms and regulations, going beyond existing borders and pure networking following the aim of a strict user focus instead of the traditional
institutional focus including all the relevant stakeholders, institutions and policy makers
as well as the inhabitants of the region and its related localities.

Invention / Intervention: HESSENCAMPUS Regional-local Coordination of Lifelong Learning HESSENCAMPUS: initiated by the Ministry of Culture in the German
federal state of Hessen in 2006 in order to further develop adult education through a binding cooperation of mainly public educational institutions in a new and innovative regional-local partnership and structure
(„HESSENCAMPUS“ ) and under different local framework conditions.
HESSENCAMPUS is based on public responsibility for education of the Land Hessen and its local
authorities regional demands, potentials and actors
HESSENCAMPUS follows the basic principle of a „development in partnership“ cooperating “at eye level” and not by top-down orders based on an agreements signed by the main players involved providing a common ground and a cautious formulated framework of
development aims and procedures. 23
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundZentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung
Implementation:Process Oriented Innovation (“Open” Social Innovation)
The implementation process of HESSENCAMPUS is characterised by
a quick start with experiments and trials within a „corridor of possible developments“
new possibilities to get hold of and mobilise potential learners an increased potential for education to become a “location
factor” for integrated regional-local development facilitating integrational developments
by connecting institutions which used to be strictly separated, by creating synergies in spending resources, and by addressing the employees’ professional competences,
creativity, and willingness to cooperate

HESSENCAMPUS: A Comprehensive Social Innovation ApproachHESSENCAMPUS as a „holistic interpretation of innovation“*
impacts: all types of innovation: products, processes, marketing,
organisation, roles, relations, norms, values all functional systems: economy, culture, politics, law all intervention levels:
micro level: behaviour of learners meso level: structural and institutional changes macro level: legislative framework, Lifelong Learning System
integrative and binding cooperation going beyond networking: more than complementary, subsidiary or supporting cooperation
setting of a new cultural framework: common orientations, objectives and their practical implementation

SOCIAL INNOVATION IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR:
CONCLUSIONS
31
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundZentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung
Social Innovation in the Public Sector:Participating and Coordinating Social Innovation ProcessesPublic Sector Governance to initiate, coordinate and diffuse Social Innovations:Overcoming continuous change and challenges in society by starting with social needs (e.g. skills shortages, long-termed unemployment, poverty reduction, transition from school to work, …)
By fostering integrative and binding cooperation going beyond networking: more than complementary, subsidiary or supporting cooperation
Providing cross-sectoral stakeholder dialogues, platforms and developing networks for different actors to collaborate, participate, synergise resources;
Empowerment of citizens, co-creation and diffusion, and dealing with the demands and societal challenges, resources, capabilities and constraints
32
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundZentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung
Social Innovation in the Public Sector:Perspective Change of Public Institutions
New and more active role of the public sector institutions:
Changing from a pure “administration” perspective to developing pro-active strategies for forthcoming societal changes (economic, demographic, social, etc.);
Overcoming existing “formal” boarders, switching from formal to factual responsibilities,
Taking over coordinating regional development by fostering and multi-lateral and public-private partnerships,
Not only giving money to others to solve the problembut unlocking social potential by getting stakeholders, civil society, citizens on board for corporate and sustainable solutions (shared responsibility).
