Sumario: | Within the field of social economy, social enterprises stand out as organizations which identify and try to solve social problems that public administrations are not able to. Meanwhile, the current economic crisis has increased social inequalities and has led to increased poverty and risk of social exclusion. In this new scenario social entrepreneurship is gaining relevance, because it is able to meet social needs unattended by public institutions or by the market; due mainly to lack of resources in the case of public institutions, but also due to the lack of sufficient profitability, in the case of the market. The social enterprise can, however, make profitable such innovative social actions, and give prominence to people rather than capital. In this sense, the social purpose and the reinvesting of profits is its own goal, and fosters such entities to benefit the communities which they belong to. One of the areas where social entrepreneurship can have a high impact is in sport. In fact, the main objective of this study is to highlight the importance and appropriateness of sport as an area for development of social entrepreneurship. Both seek similar ends, which include equal opportunities, cohesion and integration, along with achieving a more equitable and responsible society. |
