socialnet International publishes social economy country portraits, book reviews, academic articles in a global context. The introduction of a new podcast entitled "Experts talk Social Economy" is planned for 2021.
The country portraits/country profiles may be of interest for all who would like to gain a first substantial overview of the socio-political, socio-economic and social work-related situation in the respective countries.
Be it in terms of professional peer-to-peer interaction, for explorers, student exchanges, public agencies or social enterprises. Furthermore the growing cross-border need for social care provision and the digital transformation increasingly call for international and transnational knowledge education.
The articles of designated experts are published in German and English.
For further information, questions or suggestions feel free to contact us.
