You will find here voices from government, social entrepreneurs, the private sector and other experts on ways for government officials to become public innovators.
Our contributors will highlight their experiences collaborating across sectors; share ideas on how government can best cultivate an environment that is intentionally supportive of social-entrepreneurial solutions; and ponder the potential risks of government engagement, as well as strategies for avoiding such pitfalls. Several conversations will focus on particular recommendations and social issues.
