Abstract
The social environment is central not only to the growth of a stable and resilient economy
but also to its long-term sustainability. In recent years, social entrepreneurship has steadily
emerged as a significant topic of discussion in academic circles, policy platforms and
professional forums across the world. It serves as a catalyst for constructive social change
and helps address persistent societal challenges. While traditional entrepreneurship focuses
on market gains, social entrepreneurship places emphasis on resolving social concerns and
fostering systemic transformation. This paper explores the concept of social
entrepreneurship, the importance of social innovation in driving social transformation, and
the contribution of social entrepreneurial initiatives to sustainable development.
Keywords: social environment, social entrepreneurship etc.
