IRMO researchers Sanja Tišma, PhD, Sanja Maleković, PhD, Daniela Angelina Jelinčić, PhD  and Ivana Keser, PhD together with Mira Mileusnić Škrtić, MSc from the University of Applied Health Sciences from Zagreb have published an article in the journal Sustainability  (WoS, Scopus) titled Empowering Innovation: Advancing Social Entrepreneurship Policies in Croatia.

This article examines the impact of public policy guidelines on social entrepreneurship in Croatia, focusing on regional disparities and the effectiveness of various policy areas. Using a mixed-method approach, this research highlights how these variations influence policy outcomes, particularly in terms of the diverse levels of support across regions. The findings reveal the necessity of adopting region-specific and policy-area-specific strategies to effectively nurture a robust social entrepreneurship ecosystem. Additionally, enhancing public awareness and education is found to be critical for fostering a supportive environment for social entrepreneurship. This research was funded by the Ministry of Science, Education and Youth of the Republic of Croatia through the project BORE—Essence and Colors of Sustainable Regional Development in the Republic of Croatia.
