- Challenge and conceptual solution for young football players in PortugalPublication . Rodrigues, P.; Fernandes, C.; Teixeira, F.; Tebús, J.; Azevedo, J.; Pawlak, M.; Khan, M.; Pereira, Fernando A.The challenge titled "Footballer's Journey Upgrade" aims to improve the living conditions and safety of young football players arriving in Portugal to play professionally, who face financial and social instability. The proposed solution involves the development of a computer/mobile app that functions as a support platform for these players. This platform will offer job proposals from support groups and legal information about transfers/registrations in football leagues. Additionally, there will be a system allowing players to freely and anonymously share their experiences with agents and clubs. This project represents an innovative effort to provide support and security to young football talents in Portugal, addressing critical challenges they face at the beginning of their professional careers.
- Donkey wonderlandPublication . Eduarda, Maria; Freitas, Joana; Khakurel, Purnata; Gonçalo, Wilvane; Conceição, Joana da; Pereira, Fernando A.The idea is to organise educational and recreational activities that contribute to combating loneliness among the elderly and to better understand these amazing animals. To reach this, AEPGA intends to organise donkey mediation activities that involve elderly people interacting with donkeys, aiming to mitigate several physical, mental and social health problems. Donkeys and the elderly, surprisingly, share a slower pace of life and a pearl of wisdom that comes with age. Donkeys are known for their calm demeanour, gentleness, sweetness, patience and resilience, which are qualities valued in old age. This interaction can emphasise the importance of care and well-being for animals, fostering a sense of purpose and connection with nature. In short, the well-being of people can be achieved alongside the well-being of animals (donkeys). Objectives: Better wealth being, bring happiness to both donkeys and the elders. Methodology: The WE project approach, in which a team of multidisciplinary and multicultural talents, through a simple co-creative design process, achieves the solution to the challenge proposed by the partner. Result: Join us for a special weekend dedicated to Mirandês Donkey. Interactive and educational activities for all ages. Sponsor a donkey and support its preservation. Meet Tó, our star donkey, and follow his dedicated page on social media. Learn, connect, and help preserve this incredible part of our heritage. Conclusions: The organisation was already carrying out various activities to bring people and donkeys together. Our solution enhances the communication of this activity and adds creativity to the work already being done.
- Understanding sustainability challenges in social enterprise development a practical toolPublication . R. Paswan; Ferro-Lebres, Vera; Pereira, Fernando A.; Almeida-de-Souza, Juliana; Jeremias, F.In recent decades, there has been growing interest in the phenomenon of social entrepreneurship among both academic researchers and practitioners (Lumpkin et al., 2013; Zahra & Wright, 2015). The emergence of social entrepreneurship is often regarded as a response to the increasing social and economic challenges that governmental and non-governmental entities have struggled to address (Zahra et al., 2009; Teasdale, 2010; Gomez et al., 2020). Social enterprises are encouraged to adopt innovative and entrepreneurial strategies, fostering a more viable and financially sustainable environment. However, operating in an increasingly competitive context, social enterprises face significant challenges in managing dual mission activities. It is argued that key factors contributing to the failure of social enterprise sustainability include the inability to manage resource dependency, fund diversion, trustworthiness, lack of entrepreneurial acumen, and insufficient strategic human resource management, all of which heighten the risk of sustainability failure. In response, we propose a comprehensive framework, drawing on existing literature (Seelos & Mair, 2005; Huybrechts & Nicholls, 2012; Kamaludin et al., 2021), to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of social enterprises. This framework emphasises training and promotes a continuous learning environment to enhance strategic planning and governance for both short-term and long-term social missions, strengthening leadership and governance, stakeholder engagement, financial viability, innovation and partnerships, effective human resource management, training programmes, and impact assessment. The NEST Project aims to organise social business workshops, bringing together stakeholders from diverse fields. In Portugal, we have established a partnership with iLocal – Local Intelligence (Association for the Regeneration, Development, and Governance of Local Economies) to develop a Social Innovation Ecosystem for Healthy Living (SIEHL). The primary aim of these workshops is to facilitate the generation of social business ideas, promoting creativity, collaboration, and practical problem-solving. Participants will contribute to developing social business ideas specifically designed to address local social issues. Subsequently, the next steps involve producing scientific papers proposing theoretical frameworks and developing tools to support local partners, ensuring a comprehensive approach to fostering and sustaining impactful social initiatives.
