Abstract:
The research on social media use, particularly with regard to adolescents and young adults, has been explored extensively with regards to depression, well-being and other mental health indicators with results varying greatly. Much of this work also focused on frequency as the primary indicator of social media use. However, recent research has delved more deeply into social media behaviors that may have negative consequences for users.

Abstract:
Social protection has long been a relevant subject of scientific debate. Its development is interrelated with the study of fiscal factors (collection of social contributions), establishment of major social protection vectors, and confirmation of hypotheses about the link between social protection policy and the resulting socio-economic indicators.The purpose of the paper is to study the impact of public funding of social protectionon social indicatorsusing the example of Eurozone countries. To this end, a number of economic and mathematical methods of analysis were applied to process panel data of seventeen countries for the last fifteen years, including the calculation of the relative rate of variation, regression dependence statistics, and cluster analysis.The study established the irrelevance between the scope of the fundingof spending on social protection and social contributions (coefficient of determination R2=0.255). As illustrated, social indicators are determined not only by the amount of funding of social spending, but also by the structure of the social protection system, in particular, the focus on assistance to families with children and disability compensation (coefficient of determination R2>0.3). The general level of public funding for social spending items results in the 69% income inequality index andis behind 58% of non-economic parameters affecting life quality. The information outlined in the papercan serve as a basis for the formation of social and budgetary policy, as well as the revision of the structure and scope of social protection funding toensure an efficient impact on the quality of life of the population.

Abstract:
A inovação surge normalmente associada à ciência e à tecnologia. Porém, a inovação também ocorre no domínio social e embora só nos últimos anos tenha ganho destaque, a inovação social ocorre desde sempre. A subsistência de problemas sociais complexos agrava-se pela existência de estruturas e políticas públicas insatisfatórias no combate à eliminação dos mais prementes problemas atuais. A complexidade dos problemas acumulados por décadas possui inúmeras causas e poucas ou desadequadas soluções. A inovação social consiste no desenvolvimento de soluções inovadoras para problemas da sociedade, com impacto superior às soluções existentes, surge como alternativa viável para o futuro da sociedade. No entanto, a falta de instrumentos adequados de financiamento da inovação social é um dos atuais problemas para o desenvolvimento de iniciativas de inovação social. A presente dissertação visa estudar novos e inovadores modelos de financiamento, os títulos de impacto social representam uma resposta inovadora a este desafio, e são já a promessa do futuro do financiamento na inovação social, uma vez que o financiamento é direcionado essencialmente para capacitar as iniciativas e para apoiar o seu crescimento orientado para a obtenção de resultados; Abstract: Innovation is usually associated with science and technology. However, innovation also occurs in the social field and although it has only gained prominence in recent years, social innovation has always occurred. The subsistence of complex social problems is aggravated by the existence of unsatisfactory structures and public policies to address and eliminate many of today's pressing problems. The complexity of the problems accumulated over decades has many causes and few or inadequate solutions. Social innovation is the development of innovative solutions to societal problems, which have a greater impact than existing solutions, as a viable alternative for the future of society. However, the lack of adequate instruments to finance social innovation is one of the current problems for the development of social innovation initiatives. This dissertation aims to study new and innovative funding models, social impact bonds represent an innovative response to this challenge, and are already the promise for the future of social innovation funding is primarily directed towards empowering initiatives and supporting their result-oriented growth.

Abstract:
The aim of the dissertation is to provide an analysis of the Social Impact Bond phenomenon, by highlighting the innovative nature of this instrument: it belongs to that line of finance with a social impact which joins the more traditional one. The analysis of SIBs is carried out by focusing on their objectives, their operating structure and their combination of financial returns and social impact. The paper starts with an analysis of the macro Impact Investing areas, namely the set of investments intended to generate a quantifiable impact at a social, environmental and financial level as well . This innovative type of finance has recently gained much popularity thanks to a reassessment of the role of finance in support of economic and social progress. The most outstanding feature of these investments is the intention of producing an effect in the social sphere, renouncing to high returns. A third dimension, social impact, is thus added to those of risk and return, which have traditionally determined investment decisions. The paper deals with the birth of the idea of a finance aimed at social service, it examines the forms of Impact Investing, that is its instruments and concentrates on what is defined as the Impact Investing market framework. There is a detailed scrutiny of offer and demand in order to arrive to a study of the third dimension. Being the Social Impact Bonds the central theme, a mapping of the projects already launched worldwide is provided and some case studies are presented. This is followed by an analysis of these instruments in Italy, by a study of the current regulations and of the third sector reform, which opens up the way to the possibility of adopting these instruments in the Italian context. The existing social finance instruments are also examined.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Gestão de Projetos
As Organizações do Terceiro setor têm assumido um papel cada vez mais relevante na sociedade devido a um diversificado conjunto de atividades. O seu crescimento e o grande número de projetos que desenvolvem explicam a constante necessidade de recursos financeiros para o cumprimento da sua missão que, na maioria, são obtidos junto de terceiros. A gestão por projetos é um dos métodos de trabalho adotados no Terceiro Setor. Os projetos sociais são um dos meios utilizados pelas suas organizações para a concretização da sua missão, ou seja, integram as medidas utilizadas no exercício da intervenção social profissional. O desenvolvimento de um projeto visa a introdução de mudanças, promovendo o desenvolvimento social e económico para gerar benefícios (ou impacto social). São escassos os indicadores que permitam a mensuração do retorno social para cada recurso obtido e gerido pelas Organizações do Terceiro Setor. Neste contexto, tem vindo a ser divulgada a metodologia Social Return on Investment (SROI).O rácio SROI traduz, em termos monetários, o impacto social gerado pelo desenvolvimento de um projeto. Para responder às questões de investigação levantadas neste trabalho adotou-se uma abordagem qualitativa-explanatória com o estudo de múltiplos casos, como técnica fundamental. No respeitante ao horizonte temporal, a pesquisa foi cross-sectional. Os resultados encontrados sugerem que a metodologia SROI é complementar à Gestão de Projetos, é uma ferramenta adequada e robusta para medir o retorno dos investimentos sociais e fornece informação importante para a justificação dos investimentos.
Third Sector organizations have been assuming an increasingly relevant role in society due to a diverse set of activities. Their growth and the large number of projects they develop, explain the constant need of resources to fulfill its mission, most being obtained from third parties. Management by projects is one of the work methods adopted in the Third Sector. Social projects are one of the means used by their organizations for the accomplishment of its mission, ie, integrate the measures used in the exercise of professional social intervention. The development of a project aims at introducing changes, promoting social and economic development to generate benefits (or social impact). There are few indicators for the measurement of social return for each resource obtained and managed by Third Sector Organizations. In this context, the Social Return on Investment methodology (SROI) is being divulged. The SROI ratio translates, in monetary terms, the social impact generated by the development of a project. To answer the research questions raised in this study a qualitative-explanatory approach was adopted to the study of multiple cases, as a fundamental technique. As regards the time horizon, the research was cross-sectional. The results found suggest that the SROI methodology is complementary to Project Management, is a suitable and robust tool to measure the return on social investment and provides important information for justification of investments.

Abstract:
Projeto de Graduação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de licenciada em Enfermagem
Nos tempos modernos assiste-se a um aumento da esperança média de vida, e com isso um aumento do número de idosos com dependência. Assim a necessidade de prestação de cuidados por parte de terceiros nomeadamente cuidadores é francamente maior. Com o avançar da idade surge o aumento da dependência no idoso e com isso todas as limitações que o envelhecimento acarreta. Assim surgem os cuidadores informais, que segundo Neri e Carvalho (2002) citado por Oliveira (2009) cit in Sousa, partilham da opinião que o cuidador informal é habitualmente um familiar ou alguém muito próximo do idoso. Oliveira (2009) cit in Sousa (2011), salienta que as necessidades da família de cuidar da pessoa idosa dependente pode causar situações de stress e problemas de saúde físicos e mentais. Ainda assim esta função pode gerar sentimentos de frustração, ansiedade, inquietação e uma preocupação constante na pessoa que cuida, sendo que esta pode levar á sobrecarga do cuidador informal. Face ao exposto surgiu o interesse por parte da investigadora de aprofundar os conhecimentos sobre esta temática e entender qual a intervenção da enfermagem. Assim, o objetivo geral delineado para o presente Projeto de Graduação foi: Avaliar a sobrecarga dos cuidadores informais de Ponte de Lima. A população escolhida foram cuidadores informais do concelho de Ponte de Lima e dentro dos mesmos selecionou-se uma amostra de 30 elementos com pelo menos 6 meses a exercer a atividade de cuidador informal e que pertencem ao concelho de Ponte de Lima. Como instrumento de recolha de dados recorreu-se ao Questionário de Avaliação da Sobrecarga do Cuidador Informal da autoria da Professora Doutora Teresa Martins. A Sobrecarga do Cuidador Informal em Ponte de Lima Em termos de tipo de estudo, optou-se por um estudo quantitativo, descritivo simples e transversal de acordo com a metodologia de Fortin (2009). Após análise e discussão dos dados conclui-se que dos 30 elementos que constituem a amostra, maioritariamente são do género feminino, possuem idades compreendidas entre os 21 e os 77 anos, tendo assim uma média de idades de 45 anos. Relativamente aos dados obtidos com a aplicação do QASCI conclui-se que os fatores com mais influência na caracterização da sobrecarga do cuidador informal foram o IVP, SE, SF e RE, tendo-se obtido um nível de sobrecarga moderada com um total de 35,30%. Isto vai de encontro ao exposto por Martins (2003) em que sugere como níveis de sobrecarga: o valor 0 indica ausência de sobrecarga, de 1 a 25 considera-se sobrecarga ligeira, 25 a 50 corresponde a uma sobrecarga moderada, de 50 a 75 indica sobrecarga grave e por fim um valor maior a 75 é indicador de sobrecarga extremamente grave.
In this modern times, it is attended an increase of the hope of life, and with that an increase of the number of seniors with dependence. Like this, the need of care giving on the part of third namely caretakers are frankly larger. With the elderness, the increase of the dependence it appears in the senior and with that all of the limitations that the aging carts. Like this the informal caretakers appear, that according to Neri e Carvalho (2002) mentioned by Oliveira (2009) cit in Sousa, share of the opinion that the informal caretaker is habitually a relative or somebody very close of the senior. Oliveira (2009) cit in Sousa (2011), points out that the needs of the family to take care of the dependent senior person can cause stress situations and physical and mental problems. Nevertheless this function can generate frustration feelings, anxiety, inquietude and a constant concern in the person that takes care, and this can take the informal caretaker's á overload.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Impact investment är en ny finansieringsform, som med sitt ursprung och framväxt i både USA och Europa nu spridits till Sverige. Fenomenet beskrivs inom populärvetenskapen som investeringar med avsikten att generera en mätbar samhällsmässig och/eller miljömässig avkastning tillsammans med en finansiell avkastning. I Sverige har impact investment sedan bara några år tillbaka uppmärksammats av svenska aktörer som har börjat arbeta med investeringsformen. Fenomenet kan ses som en idé som överförts till ett nytt sammanhang, därden har uppmärksammats och blivit till verksamhetsaktiviteter. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att skapa förståelse för fenomenet impact investment i Sverige och att analysera på vilket sätt impact investment har formats av sitt sammanhang. Metod: Studien har en hermeneutisk forskningsansats och har genomförts med en kvalitativ metod. En intervjustudie har utförts med totalt sju nyckelpersoner inom det svenska organisationsfältet för impact investment. Internationella rapporter om fenomenet har även använts för att kartlägga de aktiviteter som genomförts i de länder som ingår i studien. Slutsats: Studien visar att impact investment har flera olika innebörder i Sverige. Impact investment har formats av sitt sammanhang vilket har resulterat i att impact investment har översatts av nya hybridorganisationer i samhället.
Background: Impact investment is a new funding that has its origin and growth in both the USA and Europe. It is now emerging to Sweden. The phenomenon is described in the popular science literature as investments with the intention to generate measurable social and/or environmental impact along with a financial return.

Swedish operators have started to use the funding and the phenomenon can be understood as an idea that has moved to a new context, where it has been noticed and used in operational activities. Aim: The aim of the study is to create an understanding of the phenomenon impact investment in Sweden and to analyse in what way impact investment has been formed by its context. Methodology: The study has a hermeneutic research approach and has been conducted with a qualitative approach. The study has been realized with a total of seven key figures in the Swedish organizational field of impact investment. International reports of the phenomenon have been used to track the activities conducted in the countries included in the study. Conclusion: The study shows that impact investment has many different meanings in Sweden. Impact investment has been formed by its context and has been translated by new hybrid organisations in the society.

A Inovação Social Corporativa (ISC) é um tema resultante na aposta das empresas na Sustentabilidade e na Responsabilidade Social. O presente estudo aborda a evolução do tema ISC e como são medidos os impactos dos projetos desta natureza: impactos económicos e impactos sociais. Ambas as tipologias são analisadas num contexto de negócio e num contexto social. O estudo de caso EDP permite avaliar um projeto de ISC, titulado como Junto à Terra (JaT) cujo objetivo é a educação para a sustentabilidade como forma de retenção populacional. Através do Business Model Canvas é feita a análise de modelo de negócio e posteriormente uma análise aos inputs, outputs e preocupação em medir os impactos. A presente investigação permitiu concluir que existem vários termos para ISC e que dado contexto de competitividade atual é uma forma estratégica de marcar um posicionamento ou expandir os mercados, através da resolução de um problema social. A EDP é uma empresa com elevada Responsabilidade Social (RS) e define como umas das suas prioridades a medição dos impactos, sejam sociais, organizacionais e de negócio. A ferramenta utilizada é o London Benchmarking Group (LBG) e a estratégia passa pela criação e adoção de macro indicadores que espelhem a realidade. O JaT insere-se num dos objetivos da Política Investimento Social da EDP e dado a estratégia inerente, a dimensão do projeto pelo número de stakeholders e abrangência territorial, o elevado investimento e a escalabilidade, cumpre com os critérios para a medição de impactos.

Abstract:
O investimento de impacto é um conceito intermediário entre investimento tradicional e filantropia, e ainda representa uma fração pequena dos valores movimentados nas outras duas áreas. No entanto, é uma área que vem crescendo muito rapidamente e ganhando adeptos não só entre as organizações sociais, mas também nos mercados privado e governamental, e estima-se que essa modalidade de investimento possa movimentar cerca de um trilhão de dólares em 2020. Se o grande diferencial entre o investimento de impacto e o tradicional é justamente o impacto positivo gerado, para que o desenvolvimento do campo seja efetivo, urge um melhor entendimento do que é este impacto e como avaliá-lo. Assim, com a visão de contribuir com a discussão acerca da avaliação do impacto social na seara dos investimentos de impacto, o presente trabalho buscou responder à questão de pesquisa \"Como realizar a avaliação prévia (due diligence) do impacto social de um novo projeto?\". Para tanto, foi proposto um modelo de análise do impacto baseado na experiência do Acumen Fund, que foi aplicado no projeto de tecnologia assistiva mDREET, desenvolvido pelo negócio social Solar Ear. O foco do trabalho foi a fase inicial da avaliação dos investimentos, a due diligence, e o resultado obtido foi a demonstração, na prática, de um modelo simples de avaliação, que se mostrou válido para disseminar a compreensão do processo que leva ao impacto social esperado. Por demandar poucos recursos financeiros e de tempo, uma vez entendido, este modelo pode ser adaptado e replicado em diferentes contextos.
Impact investing is a recent concept, intermediary between traditional investment and philanthropy, and, in terms of assets under management, represents a small fraction from both other areas. Nevertheless, it has been growing at a high pace, and not only amongst the third sector. The private and public sector have been making some moves towards this direction and the estimated potential of this market is around one trillion dollars by 2020. If the big difference between impact investing and traditional investing is the intentional social and environmental positive impact, to enable a consistent growth, there is an urgent need to better define what this impact means and how to measure it. In order to contribute to this discussion, the current work aims to answer the research question \"How to make the due diligence of a new project\'s social impact?\". To accomplish this goal, the author proposes an impact evaluation model based on Acumen Fund practices. This framework was applied in mDREET, an assistive technology project developed by a social business named Solar Ear. The focus has been placed on the tools used in the due diligence phase and as a result, it is presented a simple and low cost process for social impact due diligence, which can be further refined as the company progress in the investment analysis pipeline. Once this process is understood, it can be adapted and used in different occasion/context.

Projecto de Graduação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Licenciado em Serviço Social
O fenómeno da imigração de brasileiros em Portugal não é recente. Começou por estar circunscrito às elites, mas a partir de 1990 assumiu contornos terceiro-mundistas, consistindo num grande fluxo de pessoas associado a origens sociais modestas. Através de uma metodologia qualitativa, com enfoque em análise de conteúdo e recorrendo a entrevista semi-estruturada, foram avaliadas as perceções dos imigrantes brasileiros acerca da realidade social atual em Portugal, bem como o impacto da crise na sua decisão de regressar ao Brasil, entre outros aspetos. Foram entrevistados 20 imigrantes brasileiros com idades entre os 21 e 42 anos. Os resultados sugerem que a perceção dos imigrantes brasileiros acerca da situação atual de Portugal é a de falta de emprego e más condições de vida, entre outros aspectos. Apesar disso, a maioria dos imigrantes entrevistados consideram que Portugal ainda é um país onde se vive razoavelmente bem. Os resultados também sugerem que, apesar da maioria dos imigrantes querer regressar ao Brasil, grande parte não aponta data para o regresso. Entre as razões para regressar, encontram-se a perceção de um futuro promissor para os licenciados, a falta de trabalho e as condições socioeconómicas desfavoráveis em Portugal. Apesar disso, a maioria dos imigrantes refere estar razoavelmente ou bem inserido em Portugal.
Brazilian immigration phenomena in Portugal is not a recent one. Its onset was exclusively linked to high ranked people, but since 1990 it is characterized by a more third-world emigration, including a large number of persons associated with modest social origin. Using a qualitative methodology, with content analysis and semi-structured interviews, this work assesses Brazilian immigrants perceptions about actual Portuguese social reality, as well as the economic crisis impact on their decision to return to Brazil. Twenty Brazilian immigrants aged between 21 and 42 years old were interviewed. Results suggest that Brazilian immigrant’s perception about Portugal current situation is linked to unemployment, poor life conditions, among other factors. Despite that, most of the immigrants interviewed believe that Portugal is still a reasonable place to live in. Results also suggest that the majority of Brazilian immigrants want to return to Brazil. However they do not point a specific return date. Amongst the reasons to return we identify the perception of a better future for those who are graduated, the lack of labor, and poor socio-economic conditions in Portugal. Despite that, the majority agreed to be at least reasonably or well inserted in Portugal.
Le phénomène de l'immigration brésilienne au Portugal n'est pas récent. Son apparition était liée exclusivement aux personnes des classes sociales aisées, mais depuis 1990 elle est caractérisée par une émigration plus tiers-mondiste, touchant un grand nombre de personnes ayant des origines sociales modestes. En usant de la méthode qualitative, de l'analyse du contenu d’entretiens semi-structurés, ce travail évalue la perception des immigrés brésiliens sur la réalité sociale portugaise, ainsi que l'impact de la crise économique sur leur décision de retourner au Brésil. Vingt immigrés brésiliens âgés entre 21 et 42 ans ont été interviewés. Les résultats suggèrent que la perception des immigrés brésiliens sur la situation actuelle du Portugal est liée au chômage et aux mauvaises conditions de vie, entre autres facteurs. Malgré tout, la plupart des immigrés interviewés considèrent que le Portugal est toujours un endroit adéquat pour vivre. Les résultats suggèrent également que la majorité des immigrants brésiliens veulent retourner au Brésil. Cependant, ils n'indiquent pas une date de retour précise. Parmi les raisons du retour au pays, nous identifions la perception d'un avenir meilleur pour ceux qui sont diplômés, le manque de travail et les mauvaises conditions socioéconomiques au Portugal. Malgré cela, la majorité des immigrants interviewés s’éstiment raisonnablement ou bien insérés au Portugal.

Abstract:

Abstract:
The article examines the influence of the social and cultural environment of the university on the social formation of future specialists. The essence of the concept of the social and cultural environment of the university is characterized. A general characteris-tic of the structural components of the social and cultural environment is given. The influence of the social and cultural environment on the social formation of future spe-cialists is substantiated, which proceeds in several directions and stages: the content of these directions and stages is characterized. A working definition of the socio-cultural environment of a university has been formed with which a university graduate interacts and which is a combination of objec-tive and subjective factors that contribute to their successful mastering of professional competencies, the formation of professional socialization and the social formation of students.

Abstract:
After the financial-economic crisis of 2008 there has been an increasing diffusion of discourses by international institutions stressing the necessity towards the adoption of impact evaluation methods both by for profit and SSE organizations. This craze for impact measurement is generally led by the need of the stock exchange to find new financial markets (demand) for an increasing offer of socially or environmentally oriented financial products (such as the Social Impact Bond). This pressure had the effect to spread terms and concept typically of the financial world to other domains, such as the welfare policy (Social Investment State) and the traditional philanthropic sector (Social Return on Investment). Even the SSE has not been immune from this “epidemic” of measurement, standardization, quantification of its activities’ effects (Salathé-Beaulieu, G. in collaboration with M. J. Bouchard and M. Mendell, 2019). The paper’s main aim is to argue in favour of the adoption of a broader conceptualization of the SSE contribution to the local community (and to the society as a whole) that the one implied by the term “impact”. It proposes a conceptual framework based on the “social value” notion, which requires to consider the worth (Bouchard, M. J. ed., 2009) linked to the presence of the organization itself and not only of its activities/ programs/services. The paper will illustrate and comment the main results from an empirical research on the Social Added Value Evaluation of an umbrella recreation association in the Emilia-Romagna Region. The inquire adopts an experimental design based on qualitative methods such as: focus groups, face to face interviews and on site observations, in order to build a consensual system of social value/impact evaluation to be adopted by the local branches of the regional association.

This technical note provides a brief overview of the most commonly used methods to carry out impact evaluation of social programs. Impact evaluation is an indispensable tool to assess whether a program is achieving its objective, how the beneficiaries' situation changed as a result of the program and what the situation would have been without the program.

Abstract:
This is the final report on a three-year QUT-led research project that was conducted for The Puuya Foundation (2019-2023). Our brief was to: Assist the Puuya Foundation to develop and implement a Social Impact Evaluation Strategy (the Strategy) to strengthen the Foundation’s evaluation approach and build on the outcomes of the Foundation’s education and health projects in the Lockhart River region. The strategy will develop a robust approach with practical tools to measure the social impact of the Foundation’s programs, and the outcomes and learnings that emerge from these findings will inform the design, implementation and evaluation of all projects and programs delivered by the Foundation. As a practical outcome a social impact assessment framework has been co-created and tested in partnership with the Puuya Foundation and the Lockhart River community. The co-creative and codesign process is grounded in respect, reciprocity, and self-determination. Co-creation consciously seeks to have low barriers for participation across all aspects of the research, experiment with culturally meaningful modes of place-based communication and are suited to shared decision-making (Hancox, 2021). This process also aims to ‘address power differences, level hierarchies and connect hearts and minds of participants and stakeholders’ (Langley, Wolstenholme & Cooke 2018, 6). This has been made possible through the facilitative leadership of Board Director, Kirsty Davis and CEO Emily Schuh in these final years. This report details the methods or steps we have taken together from February 2021 to October 2023 and provides detail of our collaboration. The research team were initially informed by the foundational ‘Puuya Approach’: holistic thinking; shared learning; connectivity; partnerships and collaboration; opportunities for action; skills and knowledge; personal motivation, confidence, and commitment; valuing others; hope and determination; and authentic relationships to ensure our evaluation strategy aligned with, as well as collaborated and respected Puuya Foundation and Lockhart River community ways. The outcome has exceeded our hopes in that the co-designed evaluation framework has already been adopted beyond the use of just the Puuya Foundation and taken up by the community more broadly as their own for determining and designing new initiatives, to provide a methodology in grant applications, through to gauging the success of projects and programs. The framework is rightfully known in Lockhart River as ‘their’ (social impact) framework. Our aim that an active, meaningful framework for and by community would be co-created through this project.
