6.5.2.3 Promotional Activities

Recently, TISS organised workshops for the teachers of India who are either engaged in social entrepreneurship teaching or are interested in introducing a new course on social entrepreneurship at their institutions. In 2012, along with Dell Social Innovation Centre at the University of Texas at Austin, the Centre for Social Entrepreneurship ran a workshop on pedagogy development. The major objective of this workshop was to train the teachers in three areas: how to develop innovative pedagogy; how to incorporate this pedagogy into their existing curriculum in institutions where a social entrepreneurship programme is nonexistent; and how to develop networks of teaching communities to strengthen research on social entrepreneurship.

In 2013, faculties of TISS also helped the other social entrepreneurs and social enterprises to develop their enterprise models for the bigger social change. For example, OASIS, a social enterprise took the help of TISS faculties to develop their Amar Gaon Project, Agranee took the help for improving the implementation strategy and fundraising capacity. In 2014, Anandwan was helped to launch a pilot project, Parivartan, for training mid-career managers about the social entrepreneurship. The objective of all promotional activities is to create a bigger impact in the society.
