Council Recommendation on developing social economy framework conditions

In the Council's first-ever Recommendation on the social economy, Member States are recommended to take measures in order to acknowledge and support the role of the social economy. This includes easing access to the labour market, especially for vulnerable or underrepresented groups, stimulating skills development, including skills needed for the digital and green transitions, and promoting social innovation and sustainable economic development.
