Ralph Nader Photo: Yvonne BambrickThe Centre for Social Innovation (Suite 120) played host to activist and renowned politician Ralph Nader this October. The event, held at Ryerson University Theatre, gave Nader the opportunity to discuss Innovative Solutions for our Survival: Connecting Climate Change with Social Justice. Focusing on how effective citizenship can tackle climate change and address other social problems, he also discussed Canada's position as a potential leader in this initiative to an engaged audience. This was just one of the exciting events being organized by CSI - watch out for the Social Innovation Awards coming up in 2006.
