Abstract Youth social enterprises have become a significant component of the global economy since the late twentieth century. With the changing world and the emergence of new economies, there is a growing demand for expanding markets and reaching new customers, making it an opportune time for young entrepreneurs to utilize their unique characteristics of creativity and drive. This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review on youth social entrepreneurship through the application of bibliometric tools and methods in order to identify needs and challenges in this field. The literature was explored using the Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases from 2010 to 2022. The findings were analyzed using Bibliometrix and R-Studio tools, which facilitated two methodological stages: scientific mapping and network analysis. Based on the tree metaphor, the collected documents were categorized into the root, trunk, and leaves groups. The results unveiled several research clusters, including business strategies, social entrepreneurship and capitalism, and social change and innovation, were identified. In general, the above-mentioned clusters introduce fresh approaches, suggest solutions, advocate for societal change, and enrich comprehension regarding youth-driven social enterprises. Finally, this study concludes by presenting an agenda for future research in the field. |
