“…Por el contrario, las organizaciones sin fines de lucro no tienen métricas equivalentes para reclamar el valor creado a través de su trabajo. Esta falta de métricas transferibles subyace a una serie de problemas que enfrenta el sector, que van desde dificultades en la recaudación de fondos hasta la incapacidad de proporcionar al personal una compensación adecuada (Ali et al, 2019;Flockhart, 2005).…”

“…Por ejemplo, un programa de preparación de la fuerza laboral que aumenta el potencial de un individuo para obtener un trabajo a tiempo completo puede reclamar beneficios sociales como un menor costo de asistencia gubernamental (subsidios de vivienda, cupones de alimentos, bonos de asistencia social) y un mayor flujo de efectivo (ingresos individuales, recaudación de impuestos). Los costos operativos asociados incluyen los costos programáticos y generales para brindar servicios de obtención de empleo (Ali et al, 2019).…”

“…El segundo flujo de efectivo es un cálculo del ahorro neto total para la sociedad, es decir, el valor económico de los impactos sociales del programa. Para los propósitos de explicación de este documento, el término sociedad se refiere específicamente a aquellas entidades gubernamentales sobre las cuales recae el costo social de la pobreza (Ali et al, 2019).…”

“…Thirdly, the SROI constitutes a very suitable tool for measuring impact due to the advantages it offers, especially in a social enterprise such as a sheltered workshop (Arvidson et al 2010). With this methodology, the complexity in the evaluation is reduced by translating the impact into a single figure using the cost-benefit analysis and financial proxies (Ali et al 2019;Nielsen et al 2020). In addition to this, the SROI method has the advantage of counting on all the stakeholders involved in the company's activity, something that most other methods lack.…”

The socio-labour integration of people with disabilities is a major social problem for European countries and, especially, for Spain. Sheltered workshops, with their productive activity, are a kind of Work Integration Social Enterprise (WISE) whose aim is to create jobs for those people, supporting them through an insertion process into the labour market. Given the need to publicize the important role of sheltered workshops, the aim of this study is to contribute to the academic debate by measuring the added value of this kind of social enterprise and to provide empirical evidence of their social and economic impact. To do so, the impact of a specific sheltered workshop, UNEI, located in the Spanish region of Andalusia, is analyzed. Results allow us to conclude that, firstly, there is a demand to measure the impact caused by sheltered workshops and social enterprises in general, and that SROI methodology is the most appropriate methodology. And, secondly, being based on results of this method and on a sensitivity analysis application, sheltered workshops contribute to sustainable development, generating an impact much higher than could be expected, surpassing the economic and personal limits of the people involved and benefitting society as a whole.

“…New trends toward the “make-for-me” approach are evident across for profit, nonprofit and hybrid enterprises. These trends prioritize customization of services and tailored production based on user preferences (Ali et al , 2019). Responding to these trends requires open channels for personal engagement and iterative feedback.…”

Purpose This paper aims to illustrate how dispersed institutes of social innovation operating as intermediary actors within higher education institutions (HEIs) may help overcome many of the institutional bureaucracies and structures that inhibit social innovation in higher education. Design/methodology/approach This paper reviews core conditions for social innovation, along with the opportunities, challenges and tensions that emerge as HEIs work to apply these conditions in practice. It then describes how dispersed institutes enact principles of decentralization, localization and collaboration in pursuit of social innovation. Findings Five main ways that dispersed institutes enable social innovation were identified in this review, including bridging academic–practice divides, enabling co-creation and co-production with users, facilitating experiential and co-curricular education, supporting interdisciplinary collaborations and generating customized and place-based solutions. Practical implications Findings suggest four strategies that HEIs can use to support dispersed institutes, including prioritizing social purpose organizations as institutional partners, incentivizing public engagement and collaboration, leveraging their convening power to strengthen global networks among dispersed institutes and using budgeting models that reflect the importance of creating both economic and social value. Originality/value Although innovation labs in HEIs have long been a feature of natural sciences and technology services, they are still comparatively new for the social sciences and humanities. This paper addresses a gap in the literature on the value contributed by dispersed institutes of social innovation operating within HEIs such as living labs, makerspaces, incubators and excubators, social innovation parks, cooperation accelerators and technology transfer offices.
