In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the term eco-social entrepreneurship is not sufficiently known, and is generally not sufficiently supported. It is represented in several public documents in the field of employment, entrepreneurship, but there are no specific public policies, strategies and action plans dedicated to the issues of the development of social entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n
The following areas are identified as eco-social entrepreneurship in the context of BiH:
\n– Citizens’ associations\/NGOs dealing with issues of promoting the protection of the natural environment, including employers dealing with these issues.
\n– Companies (with limited liability) committed to achieving the recycling targets required by the legal framework, companies engaged in the production of organic food, etc.;
\n– Cooperatives engaged in the production of healthy food.<\/p>\n
