It provides the sector with a collective voice to promote market development including:
- social procurement across government, business and not-for-profit sectors
- social enterprise accreditation
- robust impact & outcomes measurement frameworks
- fit-for-purpose legal and financial structures & support
- providing ethical, values-driven stewardship of what it means to be defined as a social enterprise
