Our research projects

Our research projects in the field of social innovation move in two dimensions: theoretical and conceptual on the one hand, internationally linked and locally anchored on the other. In recent years, we have successfully carried out international projects such as SI-DRIVE, focussing on a theoretical foundation of the concept, and local projects such as KoSI-LAB: Municipal Laboratories of Social Innovation, establishing and evaluating local laboratories of social innovation in Dortmund and Wuppertal.
