In a context where public decision-makers are faced with the complexity of measuring the efficiency of social entrepreneurship incubators, the aim of this study is to analyze this efficiency by studying its determinants. Based on a sample of 40 youth National Initiative for Human Development (NIDH) platforms in Morocco and by using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method, only 10 showed overall efficiency due to problems of scale, i.e., a poor “resources-results” combination (Inputs-Outputs). The average technical efficiency of the platforms is 78.9%, indicating a need for improvement of 21.1%, due mainly to the poor results of “VSE or developed cooperatives (VSECD)” leading to excessive waste of “income improvement actions (IIASSE)” resources. The study suggests that public decision-makers should use the DEA method to determine the value of efficiency, the ranking of platforms and the analysis of resource combinations (inputs) in order to evaluate, reconfigure and improve the activity of these structures.

摘要

In a context where public decision-makers are faced with the complexity of measuring the efficiency of social entrepreneurship incubators, the aim of this study is to analyze this efficiency by studying its determinants. Based on a sample of 40 youth National Initiative for Human Development (NIDH) platforms in Morocco and by using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method, only 10 showed overall efficiency due to problems of scale, i.e., a poor “resources-results” combination (Inputs-Outputs). The average technical efficiency of the platforms is 78.9%, indicating a need for improvement of 21.1%, due mainly to the poor results of “VSE or developed cooperatives (VSECD)” leading to excessive waste of “income improvement actions (IIASSE)” resources. The study suggests that public decision-makers should use the DEA method to determine the value of efficiency, the ranking of platforms and the analysis of resource combinations (inputs) in order to evaluate, reconfigure and improve the activity of these structures.
