Social entrepreneurship as a new business model. The case of refugee integration
Anna Rivna
Martin Gress
Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to analyse the definition of the new
‘buzzword’ of Social Business in general, as well as to analyse its
contribution to the refugee integration and touch upon their challenges
and barriers they encounter. In the past few years, Austria
has witnessed a massive increase in the number of asylum-seeking
refugees, which has sparked a heated debate about the methods of
their integration process. Politicians have proposed several measures,
still problems such as social inclusion or effective and targeted integration
into the labor market have remained untouched. In order to
answer the research questions, this study applies the qualitative
method and is based on both primary and secondary data. The data
is gathered from 10 interviews of social businesses in the field of
refugee integration in Austria. Based upon this finding, it is of the
utmost importance that social businesses garner the attention of the
government and policies which should support their creation and
development.
