Social work interventions for families, individuals and communities should be comprehensive and sustainable. A social enterprise model with dual social and economic value creation provides a useful framework for such interventions. Through a qualitative research approach and case study design, three social enterprises were studied. The findings indicate that social enterprises pursue people-centred investment; engineer and promote social integration and equity in the local communities; and create employment and promote skill development for vulnerable groups such as women and youth. Thus, a social enterprise dual mission for accruing social and economic value aligns with the social work helping mandate, and therefore smoothly integrates.

在社会工作中创建替代干预措施以促进南非的社会经济发展:精选社会企业的经验教训

对家庭,个人和社区的社会工作干预措施应该是全面和可持续的。具有社会和经济双重价值创造的社会企业模型为此类干预措施提供了有用的框架。通过定性研究方法和案例研究设计,研究了三个社会企业。调查结果表明,社会企业追求以人为本的投资。设计并促进当地社区的社会融合和平等;为妇女和青年等弱势群体创造就业机会并促进技能发展。因此,用于累积社会和经济价值的社会企业双重使命与社会工作帮助任务相一致,因此得以顺利整合。
