The Government is looking for 15 leaders, practitioners and experts with:

·       knowledge and expertise in the areas of social innovation and/or social finance, including social enterprise and social economy;

·       ability to participate constructively in policy discussions; and

·       ability to mobilize networks and build consensus.

Deadline is Monday, November 21, 2016 

 

The Steering Group will participate in consultation activities to gather the perspectives of all stakeholders on social innovation and social finance, including social enterprise and social economy. They will decide on which issues should be addressed through the Strategy and oversee the initial design work on policy measures being proposed in a draft Social Innovation and Social Finance Strategy that will be submitted for Government consideration in the course of 2017.

The views gathered through this engagement process will play an important role in informing and bringing stakeholders’ voice and priorities to the Government.
