This workshop aims to discuss approaches to the concept of social enterprise from national and international research experiences.

Researchers who have been working on the concept of social enterprise and other close concepts such as social economy, solidarity economy, social entrepreneurship and social innovation will be involved, questioning their intersections and how they influence the meanings that the concept of social enterprises assumes, and their impacts on practices and policies.
