Description
This twelve-part program trains participants in the equitable innovation skills needed to become more effective and legitimate change makers.
With a combination of video tutorials, readings, self-assessments, interactive exercises and worksheets, this course combines the teaching of quantitative and qualitative methods with participatory and equitable approaches for tapping the collective wisdom of our communities to solve public problems.
You will learn how to break intractable issues into manageable problems to tackle and how to use data and collaboration to understand those problems. You will learn techniques for conducting rapid evidence reviews and mobilizing people to identify what works and learn how to design experiments, pilots and partnerships to implement a shared solution more effectively and legitimately. The program includes practical advice on how to persuade the many people who need convincing along the way as one crosses the chasm from idea to implementation.
