The LAS Social Innovation Forum is an interactive experience where participants of the LAS Global Leaders Program showcase and workshop their final projects produced throughout their “Social Innovations for Global Challenges” course. Leading up to the event, students learn and apply the tenets of Human-Centered Design to a real-world social challenge, engage with local and international stakeholders, and work with mentors and diverse team members to develop novel solutions to current global crises.

Specifically for 2021, students will present human-centered solutions to the global challenges of refugee integration and COVID-19 mitigation. Please register and plan on joining us for an innovative, solutions-focused Zoom event.
