Broadly put, Social Entrepreneurship refers to initiatives with two goals in mind: they seek to fill a social
need which is not being met by the State or by private enterprise, and to be financially self-sustaining. Social
Entrepreneurship can include work in a wide range of fields, including health, education, and cultural production.
There is much debate about what counts as Social Entrepreneurship, about its future potential as an economic model, and
its historical significance.
