About
Social Innovation
Our purpose is to enhance the collective capacity of individuals and organisations working for the greater good, by advancing responsible, human-centred technology and practical innovation.
What this website is

- Care for consequences - anticipate harms; measure and improve real-world impact.
What you’ll find here
