With Assembling Understandings, the Canadian Social Economy Hub has developed a thematic summary of the CSERP outputs, exploring some of the dominant crosscutting themes within the research findings. Care was taken to engage with the work from multiple angles, taking note
of both diversity and unity within the body of research in the following thematic areas: Mapping, Social Enterprise, Co-operatives, Indigenous Peoples, Organizational Governance & Capacity, Social Finance, and Public Policy.
Subjects: Nonprofit organizations-Canada, cooperative societies, community development, voluntarism, public-private sector cooperation, economics
Joy Emmanuel was a former Research Director at the BC Institute for Co-operative Studies (BCICS), University of Victoria. She is presently the Principal of Turning Times Research and Consulting.
