We joined forces and exchanged experiences about #socialinnovations and #sustainability during the conference in TPC Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Kristjan Zemljič and Maja Novak presented the social innovation academy (SOCIA).

Matjan Cojhter presented the award-winning (HORUS) social-innovation OPICA toy (The Monkey), made of discarded socks and produced by people with disabilities. Eva Štraser (Evegreen) showed us an innovative and sustainable way of producing biodegradable plant pots.

Tomi Rozman (BICERO) presented the Teachsus project and talked about the relationship between sustainability, social innovations and information technology (e.g. Is Bitcoin sustainable? Is it a social innovation?).

Fruitful debate during the Q&A session informed us which sustainability topics we should include in our courses.
