Introducing a Governance Tool for Social Economy Enterprises

Uncategorized June 4th, 2009
 

Visit the Social Economy Governance Portal here.

The material on this website has been gathered from the best sources in corporate governance, co-operative governance and social economy and third sector governance. While governance is a broad topic and no consensus exists on best practice, we hope that you will find these materials useful in investigating governance in the social economy. Topics are organized under the headings of Models of Governance, Tools for Excellence, Building Organizational Culture, Community Planning and Resilience, Keeping it Legal, Education and Research and Professional Services.

The Social Economy Governance Portal also offers case studies on effective governance in existing social enterprises, a dictionary of governance terms, a list of books, journals and magazines on the topic and a list of all the websites sourced in the construction of this website. You may use the governance blog to communicate with practitioners and researchers on topics relevant to governance of social enterprises and may post or receive information on various governance conferences and events occurring in Canada and internationally. Enjoy!

This website is a direct outcome of the SSHRC-funded Linking, Learning, Leveraging Project entitled, Toolkit for Empowering Practices in Social Economy Governance and Planning, for which Murray Fulton is the academic researcher and principal investigator, Quintin Fox is the community researcher, and Karlah Rudolph is the student researcher.
