Sažetak
This paper will point out the importance of social innovation for the development of green cities. In the last couple of years, we state a growing interest for social innovation on the EU level, from researchers and policy makers, as well as local municipalities. It seems that the current social-economic model is not sustainable, and this becomes more evident during big financial crisis (such as ones in 2008 and 2020). As a consequence, more focus is being placed on societal challenges and on the need for developing new innovative solutions to address them. Technological innovations do not seem to be enough. The switch from the industrial to the knowledge society, apart from advanced technologies, brought a need for social innovations. Additionally, people are confronted with the global climate crisis, and a need to lead the transition towards carbon neutral economy, and promote green everyday practices. Social innovations in green cities development can range from new green market models, institutional support, to the development of appropriate innovation culture, new governance models, increasing citizens’ participation and cooperation in green services, community initiatives, social incentives, green nudges, and similar. The authors research how social innovations can offer new ideas (products, services, business models) that would contribute to the sustainability and resilience of urban communities. The result of research show that people need to build up an innovation culture that will foster the development of social innovation design and implementation.
