Reimagining our Third Sector: Building Cross-Sector Sandboxes in Neighbourhoods 重新構思第三部門：於社區創建跨部門沙盒
Day 2 : 10:50 – 11:40
How has the third sector – in particular nonprofit organisations (NPOs) – evolved to respond to increasingly complex social challenges in the city? Through in-depth case sharing from NPOs, we will understand how NPOs have leveraged partnerships with the private sector to develop prototypes that respond to community needs, combining NPOs’ strength in synthesising community intelligence and corporates’/families’ capital.
非牟利機構等第三界別該如何變革以應對城市中日益複雜的社會挑戰？ 通過非牟利機構代表現身分享案例，聽眾將會了解到他們如何通過與私營機構建立合作夥伴關係，把機構自身的社區智慧與企業/家族資本的優勢結合，製造協同效應，共同發展能適切回應社區需求的創新方案。
