ESF for Social Inclusion and Poverty Reduction
[25/05/2012]
Last week, SOLIDAR put forward recommendations for the European Parliament's draft report on the future European Social Fund (ESF) regulation, so that it better responds to the needs of vulnerable people and to achieve the Europe 2020 Strategy targets on poverty reduction and employment. The recommendations focus on the scope and beneficiaries of ESF programmes as well as on governance, conditionalities and project evaluation.
Further, 14 social NGOs - including SOLIDAR - launched the campaign EU Money for Poverty Reduction NOW! urging Member States to respect their commitments to reduce poverty by ensuring that the necessary EU Funds are allocated for social inclusion and fighting poverty. The campaign calls to secure the allocation of at least 25% of the Cohesion Policy budget to the European Social Fund (ESF) and the earmarking of at least 20% of the ESF to social inclusion and poverty reduction. You can support the campaign by signing the Avaaz petition.
