Challenge: Building A Social Innovation Ecosystem at UNH

• UNH has a long history in sustainability, entrepreneurship, and outreach to support its ‘land grant’ commitment to the NH community.

• Most Social Enterprise programs currently housed in Carsey School of Public Policy but work collaboratively with Paul College of Business and other UNH departments on an individual basis.

• Goal is to draw from the best across our University connecting Social Innovation activities and making these assets explicit and accessible to all.
