Empowering Innovation and Inclusion: The Human InnovationHub Story
In the fast-paced world of the 21st century, learning, innovation, and career development have become integral parts of personal and professional growth. Human InnovationHub (HIH), established in 2022 in the vibrant city of Dublin, Ireland, embodies the spirit of inclusive innovation and the belief that everyone can create value and innovate with the right support.
A Legacy of Learning and Innovation
Founded by emigrants with a proven track record in innovative learning development and career guidance in the UK, HIH is a spin-off of MCR London. The company’s core focus is on working with both young and adult learners, as well as NGOs, to provide invaluable guidance and support. With expertise in career development, innovative learning experience design, and gamification, HIH aims to democratize innovation, ensuring that it reaches individuals from all walks of life.
In a world where innovation often seems reserved for Ivy League graduates, well-funded entrepreneurs, and high-level professionals, HIH breaks down these barriers. The common thread among all successful innovators is access to learning, mentoring, coaching, or education that helps them develop their ideas, projects, products, and services. HIH’s mission is to make this kind of support accessible to everyone.
Inclusive Innovation for All
HIH firmly believes in inclusive innovation. The company understands that no solution can truly be sustainable if it’s developed only by a certain group of people or by the elite. Instead, HIH is committed to preparing adult learners for inclusive innovation, ensuring that innovation is a collaborative effort that benefits society as a whole.
Championing Inclusion
The Human InnovationHub team has been actively involved in various inclusion projects, including the “DNA of Tolerance” and promoting the cultural inclusion of marginalized groups. The company was established by migrants and is dedicated to addressing inclusion in education, employment, and social life for all individuals, with a specific focus on vulnerable groups such as emigrants, refugees, and NEETs (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) among youth and adults.
The Power of Gamification
HIH’s team is well-versed in the art of gamification. They leverage gamification techniques in training, employee engagement, and education. One notable achievement is the development of the board game “Find Your Voice,” designed to enhance communication skills for emigrants.
Guiding Careers and Employment Opportunities
Another key aspect of HIH’s mission is to support young people and adults in improving their employment opportunities. The company is the exclusive representative for Ireland of Voca Academy, an award-winning system for career orientation and career development. The HIH team is trained to provide both individual and group career guidance, along with career development workshops, sessions, and courses.
