[:en]Ana Umbelino, member of the board of directors of REVES and councillor at Torres Vedras City Council (PT) will represent REVES in the European Commission Expert Group on Social Enterprise for the period 2018-2024.

The GECES, which was created following the Social Business Initiative (2011), supports the European Commission for the implementation of policies concerning social enterprises, and represents today a place for dialogue between The Commission, Member States and sectoral organisations.

During the previous periods, the Group provided expertise on such issues as the measurement of social impact, or the participation of social enterprises in public procurement procedures.

Ana and REVES will try to put forward the partnership issue, as a key for developing democratic, sustainable and inclusive societies.[:]
