| Popis | The objective of this paper is to present the factors that were the key differences between successful and failed social innovations in a co-creation initiative in Slovakia. Out of 33 implemented projects in this initiative we analyzed 21 final reports for the co-creation projects and selected 5 cases for an in-depth analysis. With 5 representatives of the co-creation projects we conducted structured interview, based on methodology of LIPSE project (Learning from Innovation in Public Sector Environments, project that focuses on identifying drivers and barriers of social innovation and its outcome). Generally, most of the failures are connected with the role of the innovation initiator and the neutral or even negative attitudes of local governments to any co-creation initiative due to overloaded schedules of public servants. Our analysis shows also other factors that account for social innovation failure. |
