Alles Clara: connects informal caregivers with professionals
Menu
Following our well-established processes, we team up with civil society actors and guide them in creating innovative digital prototypes as solution concepts.
The Inclusion Lab is a structured innovation programme running over a period of six months.
It is designed for civil society actors to address some of the most pressing social challenges the participants’ beneficiaries are facing.
You uncover the core needs of your beneficiaries by running user- and need-centred research processes and digging deep into the roots of the social problem.
Let your imagination run wild and co-create powerful product ideas that solve the roots of your beneficiaries’ problem.
You bring the most promising solution to life by driving its development to a first digital prototype and its implemention plan.
Remote workshop settings on a monthly basis, peer-to-peer exchange and learning with international NGOs, individual coaching on a weekly and bi-weekly basis.
90% of your program costs are covered by ERSTE Foundation, which results in a program fee of EUR 8,500, with possible subsidy opportunities. More information in the FAQ below.
