Social Nebula utilises its extensive expertise and knowledge to focus on three critical directions:
Operational Research
Social Nebula conducts cutting-edge research and operational analysis to identify the most effective strategies and tactics for driving social progress. By exploiting the potential of Multiple-Criteria Decision Aiding, the decision-maker is able to take into account a range of different criteria and factors when analysing complex social challenges. This allows Social Nebula to develop a more nuanced and comprehensive understanding of each issue.
Interdisciplinary Research and Development
Social Nebula promotes interdisciplinary research and development with the objective of contributing to the shaping of a desirable future for society. The organisation combines insights from various disciplines to address complex social challenges and establish the foundations for a culture of positive change. Citizenship education is central to this mission, as it provides individuals with the knowledge and values needed to participate in democratic societies as responsible, informed citizens. Through this approach, Social Nebula cultivates values that transcend individual success, emphasising the collective good.
Training and Capacity Building
Social Nebula focuses on training and capacity building through a variety of innovative techniques and practices designed to empower individuals and communities. By integrating methods such as experiential learning, mentorship programmes, and hands-on activities, the organisation equips participants with practical skills and knowledge to address contemporary challenges effectively. These approaches are applied across diverse domains, such as environmental sustainability, digital literacy, and entrepreneurship, ensuring a well-rounded learning experience.
We also focus on
4 main dimensions:
Digital Transformation
Digital transformation in the education sector contributes to improving the learning experience for both students and teachers, as well as for the other people involved in the process. These changes focus on improving engagement and accessibility through interactive and adaptive learning. This is the direction Social Nebula is moving in, contributing to a sustainable digitalisation.
Environmental Education
For a society to function in a sustainable way, its citizens need to be fully informed and have developed knowledge and skills to take care of the environment and take action against climate change. Hence, Social Nebula develops educational materials capable of equipping the trainees with the necessary knowledge and competences in order to achieve a sustainable future.
Entrepreneurship Education
Entrepreneurship is a valuable skill for citizens, both for their personal and professional development. Entrepreneurship education plays a key role in the competitiveness of any society and the continuous development of the economy. Through practical activities in various aspects of entrepreneurship, Social Nebula strives to contribute to economic and social development.
Citizenship Education
Citizenship education provides people with the knowledge and skills to understand, question and participate in democratic societies. Democracies need active, informed and responsible citizens - citizens who are willing and able to take responsibility for themselves and their communities and contribute to the political process. This is precisely the goal of Social Nebula when developing educational materials focused on citizenship education.
