Co-creating with the people and for the people.
We didn’t come to present a success story. We came to show how social innovation can (and must) leave a real and sustainable mark. At TrendTalks 2025, we reaffirmed a deep conviction:
Social innovation is not a trend. It is a necessity.
And not just any kind of innovation, but the kind that weaves together knowledge, generations, and disciplines, responding to real problems with different kinds of solutions.
💡 At Nexus for Social Advancement, we support processes of change across Latin America and the Caribbean. As a social enterprise, we connect evidence, creativity, and collaboration to:
- Prototype solutions rooted in data, narratives, and community
- Train emerging social leaders
- Strengthen organizations navigating uncertainty with forward-looking strategies
- And build platforms for collective learning and civic innovation
What we experienced at TrendTalks wasn’t just an exchange of ideas. It was an urgent call to transform how we understand development:
If our solutions are not environmentally sound, socially just, and economically viable... then we’re not creating systemic change—we’re just doing charity.
🤝 Thank you to those who believe, like we do, that true impact is never an accident. It’s the result of a practice that is rigorous, regenerative, and deeply human.
