New Toolkit Available: Implementing the Council Recommendation on the Social Economy

09-07-2025

Are you ready to shape your country’s strategy for the social economy?

ENSIE has developed a practical toolkit to help its members and WISEs across Europe engage effectively in the implementation of the EU Council Recommendation on developing social economy framework conditions, adopted in November 2023.

What’s inside the toolkit?
This resource offers:

  • Step-by-step guidance for engaging in national strategy development

  • Three in-depth country case studies (Ireland, Romania, Finland) with lessons learned

  • A compendium of good practices for national-level advocacy

  • Key insights on how to navigate ESF+ and ERDF monitoring structures, promote inclusive public procurement, and collaborate with national authorities

Why now?
Member States must adopt or update their national social economy strategies by the end of 2025. This is a critical moment to make sure WISEs are heard and included.

Whether you’re building alliances, presenting action plans, or contributing to policy development, this toolkit equips you with the knowledge and tools to act.

Download the toolkit now and take action for WISEs!
