This report describes the comprehensive process of the preparation and implementation of the 24 public hearings on legal initiatives for social entrepreneurship in Ukraine.

According to the results of the hearings, the legal initiatives received the support of about 1,500 people. The report can be considered a basis for substantiating public necessity and further promoting the proposed regulatory framework for social entrepreneurship in the country.

The report (in Ukrainian and English) was prepared for the project ‘EU4Youth – Unlocking the potential of young social entrepreneurs in Moldova and Ukraine’ (EUnlocking project) with financial support from the European Union under its EU4Youth Programme.

The EUnlocking project helps to foster the social entrepreneurial potential of young people in Moldova and Ukraine by establishing a favourable ecosystem for social enterprises as well as by inspiring and supporting more young social entrepreneurs to develop and sustain their innovative solutions to the promotion of social inclusion and environmental sustainability across both countries. The project is co-funded by the European Union under its EU4Youth Programme.
