Emergence of Social Innovation
In this week, we explore how social innovation took root in South Korea, spurred by the 1998 economic crisis and citizens’ response to social challenges.
This turning point led to the growth of civil society organizations (CSOs) and a new understanding that solving social issues requires more than government action. We’ll delve into how South Korea’s experience shaped its approach to social resilience and examine the role of citizens in creating sustainable change.
What you’ll learn in this video:
- The impact of the 1998 economic crisis on South Korea’s social structures and innovation
