| Abstract | In the recent years, social entrepreneurship has been widely discussed as an opportunity to solve social problems of vulnerable groups in society, based on economic means and mechanisms. A new area of practice emerges, which is insufficient explored from a scientific point of view. Both social work and social entrepreneurship are aimed at improving the social situation of vulnerable groups and their better inclusion in society. A social entrepreneur, like a social worker, uses skills and knowledge to solve a social problem and to help improve the quality of life of the needed. The report looks at the common ground between social work and social entrepreneurship, the role of the social worker and the social entrepreneur in terms of working with vulnerable groups. Where do they complement and where do they differ? What are the skills that a social entrepreneur should possess and how do they correspond to the skills and knowledge that a social worker uses in his/her work with vulnerable groups? How they contribute towards sustainable communities? Can social entrepreneurship be seen as a business model in social work? |
