Harnessing Creativity To Effect Chang

In this Podcast one in the Conversations Across Borders series where Nerina Finetto from Traces Dreams and Francis Sealey from GlobalNet21 will interview Maggie Dugan this Thursday December 17th at 11.00am

Here we speak with Maggie Dugan, founder of Inclusive Innovation. Inclusive Innovation designs and delivers programs that unlock people's thinking. Their workshops, innovation labs, hack-a-thons and other convening events are highly interactive, and ultimately lead to economic opportunities for the excluded population in developing countries and regions.

Events like hackathons have become very popular in recent years where people come together to effect change. So how does this happen and how sustainable is it?

Maggie Dugan will discuss with us the meaning of inclusive innovation, cultivating an inclusive environment, inviting the right people to the table, uniting people from different backgrounds to work towards a common goal, the qualities of a world-class facilitator, her efforts to empower women, women mentors in her life, and her dream for inclusive innovation.

Maggie Dugan is an international business and innovation facilitator and has been a leader/presenter at creativity conferences worldwide, including the South African Creativity Conference, Creativity Istanbul, and the Intercultural Creativity conference in Brighton, UK. She has been a facilitator at the CREA European Creativity Conference,
