| Summary: | Social enterprises (SEs) are defined as
private organizations that use business approaches to
achieve social, environmental and economic outcomes. The
number of SEs providing social services has grown rapidly
across the world, and is reaching sizeable populations. This
note is prepared at the request of the Ministry of Finance
(MoF) of Russian Federation to support drafting and
implementation of new law on outsourcing municipal social
services. The note is part of the technical assistance
provided to the Ministry of Finance (MoF). This note
explores various policy options for engaging social
enterprises as services providers and creation of a
competitive market for service provision in Russia. In
particular, the MoF expressed interest to learn from
examples of Canada, Germany, France, Sweden, United Kingdom
(UK) and United States (US). |
