Call for proposals: Social Experimentation projects |
|
3 October 2011
The European Commission has launched a call for large-scale transnational projects testing socially innovative approaches to four priority areas.
Social inclusion of vulnerable groups, such as Roma people, migrants and their descendants, homeless and young people.
Quality of childcare services: this has great impacts on child well-being, but also gender equality, poverty in jobless households, employment rates, birth rates and on long term sustainable development by supporting the development of human potential.
Active and healthy ageing: this depends on various factors, such as life habits, working conditions or urban policies and represents a major condition in order to extend working lives and to reduce social protection expenditures.
Transition from education to work for the youth as only a multidimensional policy approach combining actions on the education framework, the labour market, families can be successful.
Although the applicant must be a public authority/semi-state agency NGOs can be among the partners so Eurodiaconia members interested in the call could contact a public authority to suggest they apply.
