‘Social enterprise’, for the purpose of this specific project: - is an ongoing business venture that sells a good and/or service; is created with a primary aim of achieving an environmental, social, and/or cultural impact; and operates in Canada.
The goal of the project is to produce an online 'wizard' that assists Canadian non-profits and charities to choose an appropriate legal structure for their social enterprise.
By answering a series of clear and concise questions, the users will be working through a decision tree that results in a recommendation regarding the optimal legal structure to house their venture.
The content for the wizard will be supplied to the student.
The wizard will be housed on the website centreforsocialenterprise.com
Students focused in these study areas would add value to the project: - Website coding and application design.
Supervision will be provided via Zoom, email, and telephone by the Executive Director of the BC Centre for Social Enterprise.
