The Myanmar Social Innovation Lab is an initiative of UNICEF Myanmar and a wide range of partners. The Lab convenes partners to design innovative and locally-driven solutions to a set of common challenges facing communities across Myanmar. Special focus will be placed on the areas of participation & entrepreneurship, adaptation & resilience, and cohesion & inclusion. All areas will be approached t
hrough a human-centred lens, utilizing the design thinking methodology that has already been adapted and applied by a range of groups in Myanmar. The Lab aims to facilitate solutions by and for children and young people, with an emphasis on co-creation as a core strategy. The Myanmar Social Innovation Lab will document and share publically its open source products, services and experience with UNICEF’s innovation networks and beyond, to facilitate the testing and scaling of innovations in varied contexts.
