The Social Impact Investment Journal (SII Journal) uses the Dialog Journalism® brand which involves using social media, including interactive video, to foster conversation among subscribers, highlighting issues common on a global basis and reported by traditional media. Through Dialog Journalism®, the SII Journal seeks to address social problems and consider social impact investment instruments that may prove to be applicable solutions.
It was way back in June of 2013 the SII Journal broke the news the World Economic Forum (WEF) would release a report regarding if, and how, social impact investment products may be utilized and pulled into mainstream investment strategies. Since then, the social impact investment market has become much more accessible to the majority of investors. But are present and proposed solutions enough for solving global problems and giving returns to their investors? The SII Journal is focused on the following topics:
INVESTMENT IN EQUITY
How do we stop the cycle of generational poverty from looming?
THE HUMAN INVESTMENT
How do we foster knowledge held by the elder generation in the incoming workforce?
INVESTMENT IN HEALTH
How might one child’s health be different if his or her circumstances would change?
Books related to sessions can be purchased on Amazon.com.
Subscriptions for the Social Impact Investment Journal newsletter are available for $10 a month, or $100 a year.
Subscribers receive passwords to access related materials “extras” for sessions and are invited to take part in preliminary community member discussions to gather insights and questions. The events themselves are free and have open access.
