Massive Open Online Course (MOOC)  for future social innovators is a tool developed within “Tomorrow’s Land” project and to be used in order to explore the challenges and solution of future and present communities. Joint project of the MOOC is based on learning approach that combines theory, inspiration, practice, self-reflection and discussion with peers. It is designed as a journey, where learner has a destination to reach: collect ideas, skills and tools to foster social innovation idea.

Activities of the course aren’t scheduled, so one can take a time to explore, search for more and get inspired by specific themes. The resources can be used for individual learning, as well as for organising training activities within a group. All materials are now available in English, but soon other languages will be added for more people being engaged and facilitate from the course.  It is completely free of charge and at the end of the course Certificate of Accomplishment is available for the whole course or only one or few specific modules of interest.
