In this paper we provide an overview of the current practice.We look at the new and interesting approaches that are developing across the 27 EU member states and beyond and detail some of the new trends that we see emerging in the field. This is not designed to be a comprehensive and detailed review of social innovation activity around the world – such a task would be a vast research programme in its own right. Rather, it is snapshot of the diverse and interesting activity that we wish to investigate further over the course of the TEPSIE programme. [Extract from document's introduction].
