Obiettivi formativi

The course will rely on both theoretical content and work on case studies.
The case study : The “future of work” European Commission strategy now integrates
perspectives regarding professional activities embedded in what the Commission identify as Social Economy: A significant proportion of Europe's economy is intended to make
profits for people other than investors or owners. Known as the ‘social economy’, it includes cooperatives, mutual societies, non-profit associations, foundations and social enterprises.

They operate a very broad number of commercial activities, provide a wide range of products and services across the European single market and generate millions of jobs. Social enterprises are also the engine for social innovation.
The European Commission has launched a call for interest in order to fund projects intended to support the development of European social and solidarity economy (SSE) initiatives. Organisation applying to the call must identify one SSE organization or a concrete alternative to capitalism, they will partner with to foster their development. Together, they present a co-designed strategic program:
- They delineate key aspects of their organisational and economic model, highlighting strategic elements for their future development;
- Based on those elements, a Strategic Plan of Development is presented, identifying clear objectives, and including an evaluation process;
- The implementation of the strategic plan must be detailed through a Methodological Approach paper delineating the different phases, activities and tools, and their articulation in a comprehensive program addressing the general development of the SSE initiative as a whole.
The case studies will be done in-class but also through a survey / field work.
These questions will be the basis to investigate economic and management issues:
• What is really produced (directly / indirectly) by an organisation ?
• How can we assess social added value / social impact? What kind of accountability?
• What about acting collectively? How can we rethink democracy inside organizations?
• How can we analyse organisational networking (intercooperation)?
• What about varieties / pluralism of these activities? How to boost this proximity (territorial) factors?
