Online capacity-building on EU funding
and social services for families
12th March 11.30-12.30 CET
It is widely acknowledged that social services are facing significant difficulties, such as chronic underfunding, staff shortages and challenges in transitioning to community-based and person-centred forms of services. Receiving adequate funds and making sure that these are easily accessible and used to fund quality interventions in the field is critical to overcome these obstacles.
A representative from the Helpdesk on EU funds for social services (run by EASPD) provided an overview of key funds and how they support the development of social services linked to the implementation of different European strategies.
