Purpose and goal
The project aims to explore how transformative innovation policy needs to be designed to support cross-sectoral collaboration. More specifically, the project aims to investigate how business actors (i.e. companies, investors, financiers) can contribute at a regional and local level to help children and young adults who are at risk or commit serious crimes. The project identifies enabling factors and barriers, related to the involvement of business and funding of measures.
Expected effects and result
The project is expected to be able to generate knowledge as a basis for a more transformative innovation policy, in the area of cross-sectoral cooperation for crime prevention. In addition, the project explores new approaches to generate such knowledge through systemic and speculative design and how vertical learning from the local to the national can best be facilitated.
Planned approach and implementation
An initial insight gathering from actors and a research review form the basis of a Future Lab where stakeholders from all sectors including decision makers get a chance to experience a desired future and possible ways to reach it, using of systemic and speculative design methods. Different ways of organizing the cooperation with business actors are tested and evaluated by actors at regional and local level in Stockholm. Insights are finally shared in a national teaching conference.
