Abstract

This paper examines the impact of public policy guidelines on social entrepreneurship in Croatia, focusing on regional disparities and the effectiveness of various policy areas. Using a mixed-method approach, this research highlights how these variations influence policy outcomes, particularly in terms of the diverse levels of support across regions. The findings reveal the necessity of adopting region-specific and policy-area-specific strategies to effectively nurture a robust social entrepreneurship ecosystem. Additionally, enhancing public awareness and education is found to be critical for fostering a supportive environment for social entrepreneurship.
Keywords: social entrepreneurship; public policy guidelines; regional disparities; stakeholder perceptions; policy implementation; socio-economic contexts social entrepreneurship; public policy guidelines; regional disparities; stakeholder perceptions; policy implementation; socio-economic contexts
