SOCIAL INVESTEMENT: BEYOND VULNERABILITY THROUGH EMPOWERMENT

Summary/Abstract: The article seeks answers to some recent challenges that were launched by the European Commission regarding the absolute necessary investments for a Social Europe. The Social European Agenda emphasizes the investments in people or in the human capital regarded as resources for a new economical growth among the state members. Our analysis outlines the opportunities and the critical issues of these challenges, coming as a support for the social inclusion practitioners, by explaining and relating in detail the model of empowerment. We accompany this model also with frameworks for understanding the concept of vulnerability and of social interdependence in order to support the practitioners from the field of social inclusion, including those who work in entities associated to social economy, for responding to the initiative of making social investments.
