Net Change Week: June 8 -12th, 2009 Net Change is a week-long event designed to explore how social technology can bolster social change. Presented by the Social Innovation Generation team at MaRS (SiG@MaRS), Net Change Week will tap into the potential that exists when new methods of communicating, organizing and mobilizing are brought to bear on chronic social issues.

Between June 8-12, 2009, MaRS held our first ever Net Change, a week dedicated to exploring this intersection between social technology and social change.

Fourteen different Net Change events, including an art show, experimented with ways of creating and sharing information and knowledge on this question. Bridging the “digital divide” between web professionals and people creating social change, participants were from all different sectors and leadership levels. T

Net Change also addressed critical concepts such as how to measure the impact of social technology, and what we really mean by social change, while including storytelling to hit theoretical concepts home.
