PEER-REVIEW PUBLICATIONS ON SOCIAL INNOVATION IN HEALTH
Visual storytelling has become a key component of SIHI’s advocacy efforts of social innovation in health as well as complement to our case study research. Our film makers have visited projects across all continents to capture the beautiful stories of passionate innovators working to bring about a positive change in their communities. We find that these visual stories impact the hearts and minds of decision-makers and audiences with whom we have shared it.

SOCIAL INNOVATION IN HEALTH INITIATIVE PUBLICATIONS
CASE STUDIES FROM LOW AND MIDDLE-INCOME COUNTRIES
This publication is the result of three years of collaborative case study research conducted by the Social Innovation in Health Initiative (SIHI) partners. The summaries of the 23 case studies presented display the diversity of approaches social innovations have taken to address grassroots health challenges. The insights and lessons learned derived from this case study research cast light on the valuable role social innovation can play in strengthening health systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). It analyses the factors involved and highlights areas that need further study to best advance social innovation in health, strengthen health systems and contribute to universal health coverage (UHC).

CROWDSOURCING IN HEALTH AND HEALTH RESEARCH – A PRACTICAL GUIDE
Crowdsourcing challenge contests have been used to help inform youth-friendly HIV policy, develop new HIV interventions and create more user-friendly HIV programs. TDR, the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases commissioned a systematic review of the evidence supporting crowdsourcing for health and a practical guide on implementing and evaluating crowdsourcing challenge contests.

SOCIAL INNOVATIONS IN HEALTH INITIATIVE: LITERATURE REVIEW
The SIHI Uganda team undertook a literature review from October 2017 to March 2018. The project team reviewed the published literature for examples of social innovation. We searched PubMed and Google Scholar for all relevant literature. The search terms used were “Community based social solutions”, “Social Entrepreneurship”, “Social innovations” and “Social innovation.’’ In the first step, the team screened the titles and abstracts of all the articles retrieved from both searches. The articles whose abstracts reflected implementation and evaluation of an intervention, were selected and read through to confirm if they match the inclusion criteria:
1. Appropriateness of solution to the need
2. Degree of innovativeness, inclusiveness, affordability, effectiveness, scalable and sustainable.
All studies that were at prototype level during the period of the literature search were excluded.
Six hundred twenty-three (623) articles were reviewed, the first selection included twenty-six (26) articles, and these were re-read by various reviewers and at final selection, five articles and one book were eligible. An additional eight papers were included from the published work of solutions that had been previously selected and recognized by SIHI in 2014.
Key message: Published literature on social innovation examples is scant, and there is need to promote research in social innovations in health in order to generate more evidence on the contribution of social innovations in improving community health.
