THE PHENOMENON OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN ENSURING THE SAFETY OF WOMEN

Women often become particularly vulnerable socially and economically, the main causes are domestic violence, relatively low wages comparing men, underrepresentation of women in many sectors of the Kazakh economy, etc. Unlike a classic business, a social enterprise gives women the opportunity to become financially independent, as it allows them to combine their vulnerability with entrepreneurial activity. The main purpose of this study is to identify the main state-legal means of expanding the economic rights of socially vulnerable women in Kazakhstan through the tool of social entrepreneurship. The article uses approaches of qualitative content analysis, with an assessment of women's participation in social entrepreneurship, to resolve the gap between the approaches of Kazakhstan and certain developed countries. The conclusions of this document show that the legal regulation of social entrepreneurship in the Republic of Kazakhstan does not contribute to the active participation of women in it, compared with developed countries. As a result, legal mechanisms have been proposed to stimulate the involvement of women in social entrepreneurship in Kazakhstan, which will allow them to become financially independent.
