Three strategic objectives:

social entrepreneurship and encourage the creation of new ones;
2
• Increase the level of collaboration between academics, universities,
students, practitioners (labor market) and other relevant stakeholders
worldwide in the field of education and training on social entrepreneurship;
3
• Stimulate new learning opportunities, programmes and exchanges for
the students, professors and practitioners in the field of social
