We used Friday for the most part reflecting on our experience, putting it down on a giant piece of paper, which formed the backdrop for the presentation. People seemed to somehow agree on the experience and as Hannah Aukes put in her reflections on the Kennisland website; “Social innovation = bringing people and their talents together, to unravel an issue and to answer it with action from a different angle of perspective, succeed by joy as a motor. And that answer is most of times closer than you think it is.”
Then, we held a presentation about the cases for around 80 guests that were keen on listening and also of course the one’s that provided the cases. The result was absolutely brilliant! I think in all the cases the stakeholders found a perspective that they can actively implement with little resources quite quickly – a proof that the concept actually works. But, although this was the day for real change this is where the work begins for the stakeholders. As someone drew in reflection – “Create a magic moment, then let somebody else be the magician”.
What a brilliant week it has been. The experience will result in an article which in due course will be available on this website.
Thank you Kennisland, fellow safari participants and stakeholders for making the event possible!
