Social innovation in Asia for systems change with Marco Shek #changemakers
Marco started his change making journey as a counsellor in Hong Kong. Since then he’s worked in non profit, social enterprise, policy influencing advocacy and social innovation community and capacity building.
Key points in this episode:
What are the gaps in the Asian changemaking ecosystem?
How could transnational exchanges and learning build better social support?
How do we develop alternatives and open more doors for the communities we serve?
Where are the programmes that build capacity of an entrepreneur like mental resiliency?
How much space do we allow a young person to have an experimental mindset?
Marco co-founded Beyond Vision Projects, a social enterprise promoting worldwide accessible and inclusive art and culture for the visually-impaired. He was also engaged in managing innovation challenges (Good Seed) under a HKSAR government initiative (SIE Fund), early-stage innovation/ideation at University level, participatory social design and knowledge exchange across cities (i.e. 5% Design Action). Marco currently works as Asia Lead- Partnerships, Capacity Building and Development at Social Innovation Exchange.
