    BACKGROUND: In the EU, the involvement in social entrepreneurship (SE) is at a low level with less than 1% of the business population undertaking such activities. In view of the current societal developments, with public agencies providing fewer social services of general interest, non-profit organisations are diversifying income sources and mainstream enterprises are showing more interest in social innovation. There is a need to take heed of this in order to align their entrepreneurship education with work life, develop SE education and enhance it collaboratively with companies. OBJECTIVE AND ACTIVITIES: The objective of the project is to innovate aligned professional, higher education in social entrepreneurship in Degree Programmes in four CB area countries. The role of social enterprises varies across EU countries. In Finland and Sweden, policy documents on social entrepreneurship focus on work integration in social enterprises; in Estonia and Latvia, the situation is somewhat different. Hence, LAB University of Applied Sciences (FI), University of Tarto (EE), Riga Technical University (LV) and KTH Royal Institute of Technology (SWE) will share experiences and knowhow among partners in order to co-create new practice-based contents. We will develop entrepreneurship education, as well as create SE training for companies' continuing education. The aim is to strengthen the role of social entrepreneurship within the CB area in the long run. OUTPUTS: In-depth understanding of the state-of-the art of SE via company surveys: know-how of challenges and needs of SE in CB area. On the basis of this knowhow, we will innovate SE learning materials: new theory and practical case studies for improving the alignment of the curricula with society, as well as an aligned training module for companies. TRANSNATIONAL ADDED VALUE: Partners develop aligned barchelor level education courses, partners will share and co-create new SE content and insight. (English)
