PLEASE NOTE: In order to be admitted to any teaching activities, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the academic year in which the activities in question are offered. Students who are about to graduate in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these graduation sessions are valid for students enrolled in the previous academic year. Therefore, students who undertake an activity in an academic year in which they are not enrolled will not be granted CFU credits.

Learning objectives
The major goal of this course is to provide students with a better and more rigorous understanding of the key role that social innovation can play within contemporary economic systems (i.e. within post-industrial economies), within a sustainable development framework. In order to shed light on the effects of social innovation on the pursuit of sustainable development goals, the course will focus on key interplays between nonprofits, for-profit firms and public organizations. These complex phenomena can be fruitfully analyzed through the lens of some of the major theoretical constructs and empirical findings obtained in the last years within the framework of nonprofit sector economics (first part of the course). The second part of the course will mainly deal with recent empirical evidence on the relationships between various forms of successful social innovation and pursuit of sustainable development goals.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Familiarity with basic microeconomic notions is required, with special regard to the logic of consumer choice and to game theory. In this regard, the chapters focusing on consumer theory and game theory in H. Varian's “Microeconomics” handbook are recommended.
Program
1. Introduction. What is "social innovation"? What is "sustainable development"? Why is it important to jointly address these issues within the same course? UN Sustainable Development Goals and other well-being and quality of life indicators.
2. Part One. The role of non profit organizations and socially responsible firms in fostering social innovation and sustainable development. The relationships between Government, market and nonprofit sector: Welfare State vs. Welfare Mix.
3. Part Two. Social innovation and sustainable development: the role of "ethical consumption". Asymmetric information and market failures: the role of trust, social capital and civic capital accumulation. Fair trade and market economy: are they compatible? The key economic effects of fair trade on market dynamics. “Choice architecture”, “libertarian paternalism” and “green nudging”.
