This report by the Commission Expert Group on Social Entrepreneurship (GECES) represents a call for action issued to the European Commission, EU countries and social enterprises organisations. It argues for a European Action Plan for the Social Economy and Social Enterprises, which would provide new impetus to promote an enabling environment for social enterprises and the social economy to flourish, building on their core values such as democratic governance, social impact, innovation, profit reinvestment or the central place given to the human in the economy.
