Knowledge and Innovation Agenda Mission-Driven Innovation

Action perspective for tackling social issues and transitions

Public and private parties face major tasks to drive social issues and transitions. Never before has the world been so complex. This calls for new approaches.

The Knowledge and Innovation Agenda Mission Driven Innovation (KIA MV) offers prospects for action by developing knowledge, insights and tools. This is how we arrive at today's economic earning capacity and tomorrow's social impact.

What can I turn to the KIA MV for?

At the KIA MV you can find knowledge, expertise and tools for accelerating transitions and market creation. Researchers get these tools from scientific and practice-based research, mostly by experimenting and trying out and validating methodologies. This gives changemakers working for companies and governments or temporary workers such as intermediaries and consultants perspective to act.

The researchers come from all kinds of disciplines and work together. Think of social, economic, creative or legal disciplines. This is necessary in order to create tools that fit the complexity of social issues.

The KIA MV has three tracks, with overlap between the three tracks in practice:

  • Track 1: Developing knowledge (research agenda)

The KIA MV facilitates the development, testing and validation of knowledge on i. working ingredients for transitions and market creation (including the six aspects for MV) and ii. Methodologies (including the practical examples, KEMs and the design approach). Research is integrated, linked to practice, with input from expertise from different sciences. For example, the KIA MV helps with knowledge development around governance, monitoring, financing, participation and breaking down old systems.

  • Track 2: Experimentation and learning

Using an iterative approach, knowledge from research programming is tested and validated in practical experiments. Conversely, these experiments provide data and new knowledge questions for developing new research projects.

  • Track 3: Application and value creation

To actually accelerate transitions and increase market creation, this track strengthens and then leverages the knowledge base and competencies of “changemakers. We offer inspiration on our maatschappelijkverdienvermogen.nl website and organise events. Furthermore, barriers for impact entrepreneurs are understood and removed through systemic and programmatic interventions. This takes place at the local and regional level, where ROMs have a connecting and driving role, designers and developers look application-oriented at possible solutions, and entrepreneurs innovate.

Example projects

stichting steenbreek

Stichting Steenbreek

Climate change is leading to urban heat islands, increasing drought and heavy, short showers, resulting in flooding. This also has consequences for health and safety in residential areas. Steenbreek Foundation is a collaboration of companies, government institutions, social organisations, involved residents and research groups to tackle these problems by making living and working areas greener in order to enhance biodiversity. They organise workshops and knowledge days, conduct research and set up innovation processes.
