- #21 Tim Although social entrepreneurship has, in recent years, received more attention from the government, to date there is no single regulatory framework that governs social enterprise in South Africa (Lambooy, Argyrou, & Hordijk, 2013; Urban, 2013) As a result, social enterprise in South Africa is governed by a number of existing policies, regulations and initiatives, which shape and impact the environment and potential for social enterprise development in South Africa. These include laws that affect the registration and obligations of companies and non-profit organisations. For example tax laws; broad-based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE); corporate social investment (CSI); etc. Social enterprises in South Africa currently exist under a variety of legal entities. (Fox, Wessel, 2010).
- #22 Tim - - 22 years after the end to legal segregation, racism and inequality leftover from Apartheid still influences South Africans on a day-to-day basis. --- The root of the problem seems to be lack of access to quality facilities, education, and opportunities for residents of Townships. --- Though the government is aware of the issue and there are many social entrepreneurs working to combat this inequality, the country needs a stronger ecosystem for social entrepreneurship. --- Better collaboration with the government, media, NGOs, and communities could make social entrepreneurship a more attractive option for residents. Better training and support would ensure that everyone who is interested would have the resources to start a social venture. --- Collaboration and support are both key to breaking the vicious cycle of institutionalized racism and poverty in South Africa Although social entrepreneurship has, in recent years, received more attention from the government, to date there is no single regulatory framework that governs social enterprise in South Africa (Lambooy, Argyrou, & Hordijk, 2013; Urban, 2013) As a result, social enterprise in South Africa is governed by a number of existing policies, regulations and initiatives, which shape and impact the environment and potential for social enterprise development in South Africa.
