ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16

INCLUSION THEMATIC NETWORK BASELINE MAP AND LOGFRAME

The objective of this paper is to outline the current situation in the thematic area of social inclusion and how the Thematic Network might address it, as well as give the Network members a basis upon which they can determine feasible objectives and relevant activities. It is a simplified action-oriented map.

1. Background to the TN

The Social Inclusion Transnational Network is based on the experience of previous Learning networks and several groups that contributed to the transnational exchange on social inclusion-related issues within the ESF, amongst others the 2009-12 Social inclusion and vocational integration of Asylum seekers and Victims of human trafficking Learning network and the 2012-13 Learning network on Active Inclusion.

22 Member States have expressed an interest in participating in the TN on Social inclusion, of which 11 have been actively involved in the Network to date (*):

Belgium NL* Belgium FR

Germany Lithuania* Slovakia

Bulgaria* Greece Luxembourg Slovenia

Czech Republic* Hungary Netherlands* Spain*

Estonia* Ireland Poland* Sweden*

Finland* Italy Portugal

France* Latvia Romania

Member States have been invited to nominate stakeholder experts to contribute to the network’s activities. This practice is developing and national level stakeholders have participated from 4 countries.

At EU level, the European Commission is represented within the Network by representatives of DG Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion. Several European-level organisations also participate in the TN such as the Social Platform, FEANTSA, ENIL, Eurochild, EASPD, ESSL Foundation, Lumos and COFACE. The European Trade Union Confederation has also appointed a representative to the Network.

The thematic expert is Fintan Farrell, Acting Director at EAPN, the European Anti-Poverty Network.

2. The social situation

The 2015 Annual Growth Survey and Joint Employment Report political guidance on employment and social policies (2015) confirms that the recovery is slow and fragile, and certainly weaker than was expected in 2014. The deep recession and slow recovery reinforce

the negative social developments through high levels of unemployment, falling household incomes and rising poverty and inequalities.

The number of people at risk of poverty or social exclusion in the EU is still at around one fourth of the total EU population. The Social Protection Performance Monitor (SPPM) shows that the increases in the risk of poverty of the overall population, the depth of poverty, the declines in the gross household disposable income, the increasing number of jobless households and the working poor, and the excessive burden of housing cost, are among the main trends driving living standards downward.

According to the latest statistics available at EU level from 2014,1 122.3 million people, or 24.4 % (see Figure 1) of the population in the EU-28 were at risk of poverty or social exclusion (AROPE).

Table 1: AROPE 2014 (Eurostat)

The latest Eurostat report2 on the achievement of the EU 2020 poverty target shows the following:

- Almost every fourth person in the EU was still at risk of poverty or social exclusion in 2014.

- More than 30 % of young people aged 18 to 24 and 27.8 % of children aged less than 18 were at risk in 2014. At 17.8 %, this rate was considerably lower among the elderly aged 65 or over.

- Of all groups examined, the unemployed faced the greatest risk of poverty or social exclusion, at 66.7 % in 2014.

- Almost 50% of all single parents were at risk in 2014. This was double the average and higher than for any other household type analysed.

- 35 % of adults with at most lower secondary educational attainment were at risk of poverty or social exclusion in 2014. 63.8 % of children of parents with pre-primary and lower secondary education were at risk as well.

- In 2014, 40.1 % of adults born in a country outside the EU-28 and 24.8 % of those born in a different EU-28 country than the reporting one were at risk of poverty or social exclusion. For native citizens, however, only 22.5 % of the population was at this risk.

ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16

- EU-28 citizens in rural areas were on average more likely to live in poverty or social exclusion than those living in urban areas (27.2 % compared with 24.3 %) in 2014.

- Monetary poverty was the most widespread form of poverty with 17.2 % of EU citizens affected in 2014. Next were severe material deprivation and very low work intensity, affecting 9 % and 11.2 % of EU citizens respectively.

- Overall, 9.5 % of the working EU population was at risk of poverty in 2014.

The report is based on the indicators depicted in the following figure.

These provide an overview of the main risk factors leading to situations of poverty and social exclusion as well as the main groups/communities at risk.

Individuals and communities experiencing poverty may be included in one or several of these categories.

Table 2: Evolution of the Europe 2020 poverty and social exclusion target (figures in 1000s)

The 2015 Social Protection Performance Monitor (SPPM) dashboard based on the latest figures on living and income conditions in the EU shows that the EU is not making any significant progress towards achieving its Europe 2020 poverty and social exclusion target of lifting at least 20 million people from the risk of poverty or social exclusion by 2020. For the EU as a whole the following main negative trends, or “trends to watch” (i.e. where around a third or more of all Member States show a significant deterioration in the given indicator), are identified for the most recent period (2013-2014):

− rises in the poverty risk for the population as a whole in many Member States, and in the share of working poor and the poverty gap in several countries

− increases in the share of the population living in (quasi-)jobless households, together with rises in the at-risk-of-poverty rates for people residing in such households

− long-term unemployment and still relatively low employment opportunities for youth (15-24) remain major challenges in the EU.

− the share of the population at risk of poverty or social exclusion has risen substantially over recent years in most Member States, affecting particularly the working age population.

Although some of these challenges may have recently eased slightly, they remain substantial and need to be tackled urgently. In contrast to the above-mentioned negative trends, positive developments can be observed for the latest period in several areas:

ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16

- Firstly, although the overall situation for youth remains of concern there are signs of improvement, with falls in the NEET rate and in the youth unemployment ratio,

- the situation also continues to improve regarding the labour market participation of older workers and the income and living conditions of the elderly relative to the rest of the population.

- Household incomes are now increasing again in many Member States, leading to an improvement in severe material deprivation rates and a reduction in the burden of housing costs in several countries.

Policy processes

The Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth has set several targets including a specific target to lift at least 20 million people out of poverty and social exclusion and to increase employment of the population aged 20-64 to 75%. In support of the poverty target, the flagship initiatives of the Europe 2020 strategy include the Platform against Poverty and Social Exclusion and the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs, which are most relevant to the work of the TN.

The European Semester provides the framework for steering and monitoring EU countries' economic and social reforms to reach the Europe 2020 targets. The challenges and proposed solutions are reflected in the Country-specific Recommendations.

The European Commission also provides guidance to Member States on modernising their welfare systems towards social investment throughout life through its Social Investment Package. This includes:

- the Employment Package,

- the White Paper on Pensions, presenting a strategy for adequate, sustainable and safe pensions,

- the Youth Employment Package, which deals specifically with the situation of young people in the EU labour market.

In 2008 the EC adopted the Recommendation on the Active Inclusion of People Excluded from the Labour Market.3 The Recommendation states that Member States should “design and implement an integrated comprehensive strategy for the active inclusion of people excluded from the labour market combining adequate income support, inclusive labour markets and access to quality services”. The Commission also recommends “active inclusion policies should facilitate the integration into sustainable, quality employment of those who can work and provide resources which are sufficient to live in dignity, together with support for social participation, for those who cannot”.

The Commission has also currently launched a consultation on the EU Pillar of Social Rights

The Commission also supports EU countries' efforts to address their social challenges through the EU funds, in particular the European Social Fund, which has currently earmarked 20% of its funds towards social inclusion. According to estimates, 25% of funds have actually currently been invested in social inclusion initiatives, representing an investment of almost €25 billion. These figures nonetheless require further monitoring to assess which type of initiatives are qualified as supporting social inclusion.

3 EC Communication (COM (2008) 5737) on the Active Inclusion of people excluded from the labour market, 3 October 2008.

5

The previous ESF funding programme supported the Active Inclusion Learning network which looked at the themes of Troubled Families, Disaffected Youth and Marginalized Communities. Its aim was to tackle unemployment amongst these disadvantaged groups by enhancing social inclusion and preventing stigmatization.

Regulation 1303/2013 on the ESF and Investment Funds (ESIF) contains and ex-ante conditionality 9:9.1 with an investment priority on the ‘transition from institutional to community-based services’

The Commission works together with EU countries through the Social Protection Committee using the Open Method of Co-ordination in the areas of social inclusion, health care and long-term care and pensions (social OMC). The social OMC is a voluntary process for political cooperation based on agreeing common objectives and measuring progress towards these goals using common indicators. The process also involves close co-operation with stakeholders, including Social Partners and civil society.

Policy developments and reviews

A renewed focus has been placed on the social situation within the Annual Growth Survey (AGS), and in particular the Joint Employment Report (JER). This is accompanied by recognition that action is needed to address both the demand and the supply side and place priority on measures that also help stimulate job creation and generate entrepreneurship. However, the link between the AGS priorities and the Europe 2020 Strategy and objectives, especially in terms of inclusive growth, needs to be clarified and strengthened.

The AGS 2015 acknowledges the importance of developing human capital both in terms of education, training and skills development to access the labour market and growth, and in terms of investing more broadly in healthcare, childcare, housing support and rehabilitation services and social infrastructure aimed at strengthening people's current and future capacities to engage in the labour market and adapt.

The AGS highlights the need for Member States to focus on more effective social protection systems to confront poverty and social exclusion, while preserving sustainable public finances and incentives to work such as through in-work benefits, unemployment benefits and minimum income schemes.

A focus is also placed on integration measures for those further away from the labour market and especially in response to the recent arrival of a large number of refugees. Integration of migrants and especially refugees calls for a comprehensive approach to facilitate their access to the labour market and more generally their participation in society.

The Employment and Social Developments in Europe (ESDE) review equally provides some pointers for future policy developments including:

- Promoting the contribution of self-employment and entrepreneurship to creating jobs and giving unemployed and disadvantaged people an opportunity to fully participate in society and the economy.

- The importance of labour legislation in supporting and creating more and better jobs- Preventing and fighting long-term unemployment- Opportunities and challenges of migration and mobility in Europe, including increasing

skills and matching skills with demand- Adapting social policies including pension and family policies to support longer working

lives and increase female employment- Strengthening social dialogue and the implementation of effective employment and

social policies.

ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16

The Social Investment Package places considerable emphasis on the importance of Active Inclusion measures, intended to enable every citizen, notably the most disadvantaged, to fully participate in society, including through having a job.

In practical terms, this means:

1. adequate income support together with help to get a job. This could be by linking out-of-work and in-work benefits, and by helping people to access the benefits they are entitled to

2. inclusive labour markets – making it easier for people to join the work force, tackling in-work poverty, avoiding poverty traps and disincentives to work

3. access to quality services helping people participate actively in society, including getting back to work.

The 2016 Economic Governance Package Integrated guidelines, provide a list of challenges for Active inclusion:

- adequate income support: low adequacy, low coverage, non-take up of benefits- inclusive labour markets: High long-term unemployment, low activation, in-work

poverty, work disincentives- access to services: Lack of access to appropriate services, high costs, restricted

eligibility

In the light of these, possible areas to develop suggested include:

- adequate and comprehensive minimum income schemes- linking various services – one-stop shops- support services that enable the disadvantaged groups to take up employment- effective activation policies focusing on those most in need

3. Drivers of change: force field analysis

What are the underlying trends and movements which impinge on action in this field?

While not aspiring to be comprehensive, the table below highlights some of the inciting and impeding trends.

(EC: streamline this and avoid overlaps)

Inciting forces Impeding forces

EmploymentLong-term unemployment and relatively low employment opportunities for youth (15-24)

4 In the Communication 'Taking stock of the Europe 2020 Strategy' the Commission concluded that the European Platform against Poverty (EPAP) provided mixed results. The main shortcomings were limited visibility, lack of coherence and insufficient involvement of stakeholders and civil society. Currently, the EPAP and its actions is being reviewed in the framework of the Commission's renewed commitment to achieve the Social Triple A for Europe.

6. Issues that could/should be addressed

This section aims to address the added value in the transnational approach within the ESF and under what conditions the TN is likely to make an impact.

The content of the section is based on the first two meetings of the network in 2015 and 2016 and the issues of main concern and common interest between the Member States highlighted during the exchanges.

The main objectives of the TN as seen by the Members are to:

to support transnational exchange that can lead to a more effective use of the ESF by sharing knowledge and providing support and guidance;

to provide support towards the preparation and implementation/exchange on the Transnational Co-ordinated calls at national level and how they can drive policy change;

to support Member States not launching calls, through network exchange and learning.

Based on inputs received by Members, and in the light of emerging areas of interest within the EU policy context on poverty and social exclusion, the headline themes that could be developed by the Network throughout its lifetime are the following:

a. Promoting integrated approaches to active inclusion;b. Increasing access and modernising social and health quality services towards

greater independent living conditions;c. Combating discrimination and promoting inclusion of marginalised groups

experiencing poverty and social exclusion.Within these overall themes to be developed by the Thematic Network, a series of sub-themes have been suggested.

In achieving the objectives and in following up the themes the TN could use the following approaches:

12

ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16

- case study and good practice mapping and sharing- integrating horizontal principles including gender mainstreaming- looking at both policies and practices- agree common definitions and quality assurance - develop better evidence base through for example soft indicators- ensure shared responsibility in operating the TN and moving forward its specific

activities, including hosting meetings and proposing case studies for discussion

Theme Sub-themes Suggested approaches

1. Promoting integrated approaches to active inclusion Use of One Stop Shops

Using combined active and passive types of measures to ensure successful integrated and personalised pathways to active participation and labour market integration

2. Increasing access and modernising social and health quality services towards greater independent living conditions

Integration/coordination among services

Case study and field visit on socially innovative approaches including One-Stop-Shops (OSSs): what they are, how they work and where, how can they best serve the target group (country?)

Case study on good coordination between Health/Social Ministry (country?)

Integrated OSSs for Roma (CZ, Glasgow, Ghent)

Accessibility in rural areas Mobile health clinics in rural areas (?)

Deinstitutionalisation for children/adults

Good practice exchange

Showcasing a good model of deinstitutionalisation and ensuring common understanding of the concept

‘Childhood 2025’ coalition in BG

Employment for persons with disabilities/MH issues

Personalised services

13

3. Combating discrimination and promoting inclusion of and outreach to marginalised groups experiencing poverty and social exclusion.

Outreach to target groups difficult to access

Possibly peer review?

Fighting against segregation/ promoting desegregation of people experiencing poverty and social exclusion including marginalised communities

Community-Led Local Development

Case study and field visit: from EC guidance documents to reality on the ground. How do we integrate local NGOs involved in ESF?

Quality employment opportunities in rural areas

Access to labour market of LGBT people

Engaging experts by experience in the development of policies

Empowerment of young people ‘Choices’ (PT)

Within the limits of the thematic Network it will not be possible to address all aspects of the broad themes identified above. It is envisaged that a key question can help to narrow the focus of each of the thematic areas identified in order to make the work more manageable. Based on the information gathered and the perspective of the thematic expert the following table proposes a summary of the work to be undertaken by the Thematic Network on Social Inclusion and the key methods and outputs.

It is envisaged that a small working group for each area, made up of different stakeholders, would be established to guide the work to be undertaken to address each of the questions. It is also envisaged that each year one of the three meetings of the Network will have a primary focus on one of these key questions. The broader information gathered above would be drawn on to develop the work in each area.

Theme Key question to be addressed Methods Outputs

1. Promoting integrated approaches to active inclusion

How to promote the integrated approach called for under the Active Inclusion Recommendation that contributes to social inclusion?

Policy discussions and debates

Seek synergies and links with transnational exchanges that are established

Policy Recommenda-tions

3. Combating discrimination and promoting inclusion of marginalised groups experiencing poverty and social exclusion

How to reach and sustain the involvement of people and communities experiencing poverty, exclusion and discrimination?

Cross-cutting work:In addition to work on these three themes it is proposed that one cross-cutting piece of work be undertaken to develop soft indicators for social inclusion measures under ESF Funds. Work on this would be progressed at each meeting of the Social Inclusion Transnational Network.

Cross-cutting theme:Social innovation is a cross cutting theme that should be addressed in all areas of the work of the Inclusion Network.

7. Logical framework

The following logical framework summarises the key set of focus themes and outputs for the coming period (July 2016 to summer 2017)

Overall objective Active inclusion, accessible quality services and the fight against discrimination are promoted within the EU through the use of ESF

Project purpose To improve the understanding and capacity of ESF MAs, EU policy-makers and NGOs working with people and communities experiencing poverty and exclusion to apply measures to improve inclusion, in three areas where there is most scope to improve the effectiveness of ESF interventions:

1. Promoting integrated approaches to active inclusion Community-led local development Use of One Stop Shops Identification of holistic approaches/ Use of personalised pathways

2. Increasing access and modernising social and health quality services towards greater independent living conditions

promoting deinstitutionalisation in service provision Integration and coordination among services Accessibility in rural areas

3. Combating discrimination and promoting inclusion of marginalised groups experiencing poverty and social exclusion

involvement of people and communities experiencing poverty, exclusion and discrimination outreach to hard-to-reach communities Use of Governance to strengthen participation of marginalised groups empowerment of younger people

Results 1. Improved shared understanding among ESF MAs, EU policy-makers and relevant NGOs of how the ESF can act more effectively in the three areas

16

ESF Inclusion TN Baseline/logframe – 24/10/16
