ABOUT SESH
Social Entrepreneurship to Spur Health
The SESH (Social Entrepreneurship to Spur Health) initiative is a partnership joining individuals from the Southern Medical University Dermatology Hospital, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the University of North Carolina-Project China. The main goal of this project is to create more creative, equitable, and effective health services using crowdsourcing open calls and other social entrepreneurship tools. Crowdsourcing is the process of having a group solve a problem and then sharing that solution widely with the public.SESH is the Social Innovation in Health Initiative Hub for China.

SOCIAL INNOVATION
Our Innovation
Our SESH team has a special interest in social innovation. We define social innovation as a community-engaged process that links social change and health improvement, drawing on the diverse strengths of local individuals and institutions. Our team is a research hub within the Social Innovation in Health Initiative (SIHI), a multi-disciplinary network of researchers focused on evaluating and nurturing social innovation in low and middle-income countries. Our team helped to develop WHO-TDR guides on social innovation research, crowdsourcing, and public engagement.

OUR TESTIMONIALS
Community-based, community-driven response to sexual health services
“Meaning many young people are facing with financial barriers and lack of community support and subsequent increased likelihood of contracting STI. This project is overcoming those barriers with the aim of increasing test and improving public health.”

Director General of the World Health Organization Dr. Tedros

“Good, it’s good, because I watched some videos and pictures, they are designed by the community and students and it’s very lovely and funny. Because in China many advertisements like testing and safer sex are almost all from government or CDC. Their design, it’s not really professional, it’s a little bit boring and very simple.”
