Social Capital.Net
(SC.Net), established in November 2008, is a multi-functional
knowledge base and development platform. By engaging a group
of enthusiastic persons to become SC.Net members, the SC.net
will consolidate local practical experience on social capital
for its better development. To achieve this goal, we must
have four key elements:
One vision, one belief
- Work together to create social capital
Two persons, greater effect„P
- Two persons play the synergistic effect of "1+1>2"
Over a hundred SC.Net members achieve even higher synergy
Three minds pool wisdom
- Achieving knowledge transfer on the basis of consolidated experience and mutual learning
Four good qualities, light up communities
- Commitment, devotion, companionship and self-enhancement

With the cross-sectoral collaboration between the community, business sector and the Government, SC.Net is formally launched to build up social capital together. |

Mission and Functions |
| |
With the mission
of promoting social capital, SC.Net members aim to further
extend the impact of social capital by leveraging on their
respective expertise, experience and networks, and bring
social capital into fuller play in various sectors and their
respective areas. As a result, the public can better know
and recognise the concepts of social capital and then actively
take part in building up social capital and promoting social
development. The CIIF expects that there will be SC.Net
members in every community in the near future, who will
spread the benefits of social capital over the territory.
Three Key Platforms of SC.Net:
-
Interactive
platform for knowledge exchange
Enabling academics and persons across sectors to share
their expertise and explore the theories and approaches
of social capital
„P
-
Co-operation
platform for cross-sectoral collaboration
Promoting cross-sectoral collaboration, reinforcing
and enhancing synergy as well as achieving extraordinary
benefits
„P
-
Innovative
Platform
Bouncing off ideas of persons across sectors so that
they will actively introduce new strategies and flagship
projects for social capital development
