Human And Social Capital

System Innovation (SI) is a critical approach in driving individual and collective actions towards sustainable development (SD). This article presents the validation process of the Climate-KIC Professional Competence Framework (CF) for SI. This framework is based on principles of system thinking and the need for human capital to deal with challenges related to long-term sustainability. It comprises twenty competences grouped into five stages that describe contexts where professionals implement transformations: Exploring, Framing, Designing, Implementing and Strengthening. The stages are not linear or strictly sequential because overlapping and loops are frequent in transformational and disruptive changes. The CF fulfils several functions in the development of human and social capital: competences’ assessment, their development and training, and their certification to make them more interpretable in the labour market. The methodology for assessing professionals’ competences and the certification procedure are described. Overall, the CF aims to promote the development and visibility of human capital in a critical area for sustainability.

Knowledge Attitudes And Practices

A before-after-only health education experiment was conducted by a team of a dozen health educators, nurses, and physicians who were students and faculty of the National Institute of Preventive and Social Medicine (NIPSOM). The experiment ran several months with 162 Moslem farming families in one village. Changes in sanitation-related knowledge, attitudes, and practices were measured and correlated with social class. It is suggested that the most useful sociology in the Third World is: (a) basic general sociological theory including ecosystem as well as social system, (b) multimethological including participant –observation, survey, and field experiment methods. Implications are drawn for graduate curricula in light of the trend toward increasing enrollments from Third World countries.
