The Latin American Centre for Purpose designed the educational model for its Specialised Program on Leadership and Social Management, through a crowdsourcing strategy, which allowed to design a methodology that would directly respond to the needs of Latin American society. For this end, a team of ten young adults from different countries, ages and professions was formed. After a three-month co-creation process, the team generated the curriculum for the Specialised Program on Leadership and Social Management. This article analyzes the empirical application of crowdsourcing in the development of educational models. Specifically, we describe the implementation process of this strategy in the Specialized Program on Leadership and Social Management by the Latin American Center for Purpose. Likewise, we propose a broad discussion about the utility of crowdsourcing as a new tool for fostering innovation in issues of public and social interest through collective collaboration.Downloads
