Abstract
Nowadays the word sustainability is being concerned in both individual and organization level. The concept of sustainability implies policies, activities and actions of individuals and the business community that enable the future successful continuance of the economy and society and safeguarding of the environment. The concern for sustainability and the prevention and overcoming of social problems has resulted in the emergence of social entrepreneurs and social enterprises that can participate in the achievement of sustainable development goals. While the primary objective of business enterprises is to make profits from their products or services, for many social entrepreneurs, it is important to apply those profits to solve problems in society through social innovation and networking and make those changes sustainable. In Thailand, social enterprises have introduced a new business model of interest to the younger generation who are concerned about social and environmental problems. An understanding of the development of social enterprises and their intentions, actions and purposes, could help such organizations to improve their effectiveness and economic health, allowing them to pursue their goals more effectively
