Social enterprises are promoted as a method of welfare reform, to transition people out of disadvantage by addressing poverty, unfulfilled capabilities and social exclusion. This study explores how three Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISEs) in Australia help to realise wellbeing for their employees by mapping their micro-geographical experience of wellbeing. By mapping the sites within a social enterprise where wellbeing is realised, we provide a practical, empirical and replicable methodology that is useful for gaining insights into where and how wellbeing realisation occurs. This situates wellbeing as an upstream place-based resource likely to influence downstream health outcomes.
社会企业被宣传为一种福利改革方法，通过解决贫困、未充分发挥的能力和社会排斥问题，帮助人们摆脱劣势。本研究通过绘制他们在微观地理层面上的幸福感体验，探索了澳大利亚的三个工作整合社会企业（WISEs）如何帮助其员工实现幸福感。通过绘制社会企业中实现幸福感的地点，我们提供了一种实用、经验性和可复制的方法，有助于深入了解幸福感实现的地点和方式。这将幸福感置于可能影响下游健康结果的上游基于地点的资源位置。
