National Contact Point EaSI Sweden

ended

The European Social Fund in Sweden has supported practices of identifying, systematizing, and nurturing social innovation projects for many years, however, there has not been a systematic relationship between these activities and the EaSI and the Swedish MA of the ESF. Thus, the project can strengthen the ties and linkages between the social innovation ecosystem and the work of the Swedish ESF MA. A strengthened linkage can support relevant priorities, national and EU funding windows for transnational cooperation. The General objective of this proposal is to establish and maintain a National Contact Point within the Swedish ESF council, that will act to inform about the EaSI strand, its opportunities, application requirements, projects, and results. As well as assist in sharing and promoting results and support to potential beneficiaries, the public, stakeholders, and support and exchange knowledge with other NCPs
