About the organisation
As the national centre for social innovation we are passionate about uncovering new and better ways to create social good. From systems innovation through to unlocking the assets and potential of our communities – we are determined to move social innovation from the margins to a national priority. There is no organisation or group of individuals who can drive this alone. We must build the conditions and capability for social innovation to happen at scale. At the heart of TACSI lies the fundamental belief that people are the experts in their own lives. We believe that the best innovations come from working alongside the people who face the very challenges we are trying to solve. Innovation is not the end game. Our ambition is people living their best life and having every opportunity to reach their potential.
