This study examines the role of universities in promoting change in developing countries, despite facing constraints such as inadequate finance, outdated infrastructure, and the lack of comprehensive frameworks. The methodology of the study will employ a descriptive approach, focusing on direct observation and the recording of social change efforts in universities in developing countries. A selective sample will be chosen, and qualitative data will be evaluated using thematic analysis. It analyzes existing programs, provides a holistic framework for long-term social change, and investigates the role of universities in bringing about real change. This study empowers universities in low-income countries to address societal concerns using their intellectual capital, research capacity, and human resources. It examines contextual limits, best practices, and development areas, acknowledging limitations and highlighting the importance of future research for effective solutions and societal transformation in developing countries. This study explores the challenges universities face in promoting social transformation in developing nations, adding to the ongoing debate on higher education's capacity. It offers a holistic framework for long-term social change and has significant implications for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders interested in using universities' capacity for genuine social change. The study reached important results, which represented, first, a multifaceted approach to social transformation by playing a decisive role in facilitating social transformation by adopting a multifaceted approach. Then adopting a people-centered approach yields positive results, leading to positive social transformation and long-term growth. This is followed by emphasizing that global cooperation is vital and important in collaborating with global partners and international organizations in addressing complex societal issues and benefiting from diverse knowledge.

“…Unlike purely technological innovation, social innovation emphasises the human and social dimensions of problem-solving, recognising that sustainable change requires not only technological advancements, but also shifts in behaviour, attitudes, and institutional structures (Foroudi et al, 2020). Moreover, social innovation is not confined to a single sector or discipline; it spans the intersection of various fields, including sociology, economics, psychology and technology (Batista, Helal, 2023;Solis-Navarrete et al, 2021). It encourages interdisciplinary research and application, recognising the interconnectedness of social challenges and the need for holistic solutions (Broekema et al, 2022).…”

“…In the debate around social innovations, it is important to signify what/who are involved, and what/who plays a leading role (Micelli et al, 2023). Here, opinions were different for some time: some researchers underline that social innovation should be carried out by non-profit organisations, others that the leading role be delegated to the public sector, and others point out the significance of the private sector (Batista, Helal, 2023;Dawson, Daniel, 2010). Currently, the common consensus includes all three of these sectors as instigators and developers of social innovation (Foroudi et al, 2020).…”

The article shows the expression of social innovation in the Lithuanian military. By presenting different innovation models and processes, the authors argue that social innovation could be an effective tool for increasing the efficiency, resilience and intelligence of the armed forces. While the general public perception of the military is very technocratic, social practices (leadership, collaboration, communication) can broaden that perception through social innovation. The empirical study reveals that the expression of social innovation enriches social practices, and introduces new perspectives, ranging from advanced mental health support measures to operational collaborative strategies. Social innovation can contribute to the management of contemporary challenges both in the military and in society. By presenting the current expression of social innovation, the paper reveals the opportunities for improving social innovation in the Lithuanian military.
