Abstract

The purpose of the article is to elucidate the main methodological and normative aspects in assessing the impact
of the activity of social enterprises in the Republic of Moldova.
The methodological approach is based on the PDCA quality management cycle and the role of the monitoring and
evaluation function in the managerial cycle of any activity.
Currently, in the Republic of Moldova, the social entrepreneurship activity is at the embryonic stage of development. Thus, in order to boost the development of this sector and achieve the desired economic and social impact, there is a need to increase the quality of managerial procedures both at the macro level – that of sectoral public policies,
and at the micro level – that of the management of social enterprises.
In the process of evaluating the impact of social entrepreneurship, the author relies not only on the economic and
social effects, but also on the principles of sustainable development.
Keywords: evaluation, impact, indicator, social entrepreneurship, development, policies, enterprise management,
principles.
