Strategic Representation for the Future of the Social Economy: AFIN, ADV, and SFA Join the National Commission
At a defining moment for the future of the social economy in Romania, AFIN IFN, ADV Romania, and the Social Finance Association (SFA) played an active role in the establishment of the National Commission for the Social Economy, a key advisory body within the Ministry of Labour and Social Solidarity.
🔍 Three Strategic Applications, One Shared Vision:
✅ ADV Romania – as a leading social enterprise, aimed to bring to the Commission a broad perspective on social innovation and inclusion.
✅ UtilDeco – a work integration social enterprise, represented the voice of those promoting socio-professional integration.
✅ AFIN IFN – a social enterprise dedicated to financing the sector, emphasized the importance of a financial approach tailored to the needs of this ecosystem.
👏 The results were quick to follow:
They were selected as members of the Commission:
🔹 Bogdan Merfea – representative of AFIN IFN
🔹 Angela Achiței – representative of UtilDeco
🔹 Oilright Timișoara – AFIN’s strategic partner and member of the Ethics Committee
