  25. Gross and Net Social Benefit • The gross social Benefit is the difference between the value of the SEW-Index at time 1 and at time GSB = SEWI1 – SEWI0 • The net social benefit takes into account the investment needed by the project: NSB1 = (SEWI1 – NSI1) – SEWI0

  26. The Matrix of the Social-Economical Welfare Development needs a holistic approach. • The SEW-Index is also an useful tool: • at the stage of the project planning. • individuate the weak points of the targeted population. • to recognize complementary actions, alone or together with other institutions. • In this way, the always scarce resources can be used in an optimal way.
