What is it?
The Social Innovation Day is an engaging and interactive event open to everyone who wants to make a positive difference in Cambridge.
Whether you live in, work in, or simply care about the city: this is your chance to share ideas, meet new people, and come up with creative solutions to some of the challenges we face as a community.
Together, we’ll explore big topics like:
Climate Action: How can we lead the way in tackling the climate emergency and make Cambridge a greener city?
Poverty and Inequality: What can we do to support those who need it most and build a fairer society?
Affordable Housing: How can we help more people find safe, affordable homes and tackle homelessness?
A Better Future for All: What steps can we take to make Cambridge a modern, inclusive, and sustainable place for everyone?
Throughout the day, you’ll join a team, get inspired by expert speakers, and use your unique skills and ideas to come up with solutions. No special experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and enthusiasm! Mentors and experts will be on hand to support you every step of the way.
