Social innovation in the energy transition

Berlin | Germany

View full programme here

In 2018, the impacts of climate change were hard to miss: heat waves, droughts, and extreme tropical storms swept the globe, ravaging homes, commu­nities, and infrastructure.

Combating these and other alarming trends requires an all-hands-on-deck approach, with contri­bu­tions from national and inter­na­tional govern­ments and organ­i­sa­tions, the private sector, and commu­nities and individuals.

Social innovation is one of the key drivers of this process. Grassroots climate movements, community energy projects, sustainable startups, and clean-energy entre­pre­neurs are all examples of social innovation at work. In recog­nition of social innovation’s growing role in climate action, it was made the centre­piece of IKEM Academy 2019.

The 2019 IKEM Academy, ‘Social innovation in the energy transition: empow­erment through climate action’ featured inter­active workshops, a tour of Germany’s first energy-autonomous village, seminars led by renowned experts, networking events, and as usual, a festive farewell barbecue.
