We know community members possess invaluable knowledge and creative ideas that can address real and complex challenges that are relevant to the needs of the collective.
That’s why we proactively and continuously involve communities and grassroots organizations to co-create initiatives based on lived expertise and relevant needs. By embracing community-driven innovation, we guide individuals and communities to be the architects of their own solutions.
Pillar Purpose
Our purpose is to transform health systems and enable communities to shape their own well-being through community-driven innovation.
By centering community members as co-creators and decision-makers, we strive for inclusive, culturally responsive, and sustainable outcomes that address health disparities and advance equity.
About Community-Driven Innovation
Community-driven innovation refers to a collaborative approach to problem-solving that is rooted in the needs, experiences, and aspirations of a specific community or group of people.
Through this framework, community members are actively involved in all stages of the innovation process — including problem identification, idea generation, design, implementation, and evaluation — rather than passive recipients of solutions imposed from external sources.
Our Focus Areas
To create an environment where communities are empowered to shape their own health and well-being, we work to nurture collaborative partnerships, amplify the voices of our communities, build knowledge-sharing platforms, foster innovation ecosystems, measure impact, and more.
