The Fifth International Conference On Creativity And Innovation With Grassroots [ICCIG 5]

Giving voice visibility and velocity to creativity and innovative people at the grassroots has been the key goal of inclusive development. Honey Bee Network has emerged over the last thirty-five years as a committed new social movement in support of knowledge-rich economically poor people. In order to enrich the ecosystem for inclusive and empathetic innovations the Fifth ICCIG will pool the insights from the ground and global playfields of ideas institutions and initiatives by policymakers and also by local/global communities and networks. The conference invited contributions on inclusive innovations from the grassroots from scholars activists policymakers and innovators themselves.

Honey Bee Network started more than three decades ago to raise the voice of collaboration between formal and informal sectors respect for local/indigenous knowledge for the conservation of biodiversity and associated knowledge systems sharing of benefits through ethical supply chains and rewarding local communities and individual innovators and traditional knowledge holders. Today the concern for inclusive innovation has become much more widespread but the voice of the knowledge-rich economically poor people and the youth is still not heard adequately.

We invite scholars academics corporate leaders policy makers activists administrator local community representatives organizational leaders various social and cultural networks engaged in the empowerment of local creativity and public and private initiatives around the world to make society more fair and just in dealing with various creative social segments.
