Institute for Social Innovation
New edition of the executive training programmes for NGOs
Esade and the ”la Caixa” Foundation present a new edition of their executive training programmes for NGOs for the 2026–2027 academic year:
- Executive Programme in NGO Management (Madrid) - 28th edition
- Leadership, Innovation and Social Impact Programme (Barcelona) - 21st edition (Coming soon)
Both programmes are designed to strengthen the management capacities of people leading social organisations, combining management, leadership and innovation to better respond to the current challenges of the third sector.
2nd edition: Esade-ISS Sustainability in the Workplace Barometer
The report, produced by the Esade Institute for Social Innovation in collaboration with ISS Spain, analyses how the workplace has become consolidated as a strategic space where sustainability becomes visible in culture, leadership and decision-making. This second edition includes a comparative 2024-2026 perspective and identifies progress, continuities and gaps between ESG ambition and its actual implementation. It also presents a ten-point set of recommendations to move towards more sustainable, human, resilient and innovative workplaces.
Chair for Socially Responsible Digital Innovation (SoReDI)
Technology shapes our daily lives, yet many digital environments foster isolation, polarization, and distress, particularly among younger generations. SoReDI was created to promote socially responsible digital innovation, a space where industry and society come together to research, imagine, and collaboratively build a new way of relating to technology, in service of people.
