Summary/Abstract: The authors have been currently researching how social enterprise organisationsmanage themselves and share their Situated Learning. This paper presents the research,its methodology and some preliminary findings. The authors have studied nearly14 Social Enterprise Organisations over the last 5 years. These groups (in England andPoland) were chosen purposively as self-starting Communities of Practice, operatingwith the specific agenda. Semi-structured qualitative interviews have been undertakenso far with over 25 individuals, in 2 countries and very different sectors, including campaigns,health and social care support and even a village festival. The early results havedemonstrated a perceived need to transfer knowledge between members and sharethis with the world outside.
