Workshop: Transferring Social Innovations Across the Baltic Sea Region

Project: MentalHealthMatters
Physical Meeting

Description

The purpose of the workshop is to explore the conditions and mechanisms through which social innovations can be transferred from one country to another.

By the end of the workshop, the participants should have a deeper understanding of:

  • How can an innovation be transferred to a new context?
  • How transnational collaboration can be approached to enable the transfer of promising practices across borders and between sectors?
  • What are the most important elements for successful innovation transfer?

The workshop will bring together three NDPHS and PA Health in the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region ongoing projects under the theme of “Sustainable Working Life”, namely:

Economy of Well-being of People, aiming to foster cross-sectoral collaboration for advocating the concept of the economy of well-being.

MentalHealthMatters seeks to increase the resilience of the workforce by tackling psychosocial risks and building psychosocial resources in workplaces.

Solutions for Age-Friendly Employers tackles ageism in workplaces and will provide employers with a general framework for age-friendly practices.

The workshop is the final event for the Swedish Institute – funded project Economy of Well-being of People, showcasing the methodology prepared during the project.

Seats are limited. Registration required. Visit event page for more information.
