Introduction
Adoption of the Social Economy Action Plan (SEAP) by the European Commission in December 2021 can be seen as a herald of changes in thinking about the economy. In the SEAP EC has recognized social enterprises and social economy organizations as the engine of sustainable development but also proposed concrete instruments in order to allow for the growth of the social economy sector. In this webinar participants will have a chance to learn the main reasoning behind the SEAP, terms and definitions regarding social economy and actions planned. There will also be a space for discussion on how microfinance is placed within the social economy and how MFIs can benefit from the SEAP.
