Social Innovation Fund together with partners from 9 different European countries Italy –CEIPES, Greece – STIMMULI, ADDMA SA and EILD, France – DA&DA, Spain – Ayuntamiento deQuart de Poblet, Romania – PATRIR, Cyprus – CSI and SIKES, ADDMA SA (Grecia), Netherlands– VITAL AID and coordinator Portugal – ISCAP, is developing the project ENFEM – Female TCNs Integration in local Communities through Employability and Entrepreneurship Local Oriented Strategies.
ENFEM project financed by the AMIF Program of the European Commission, is based on the knowledge that Third Country Nationals (TCNs), and particularly women, are one of the most vulnerable population groups in the European Union, facing a lot of discrimination and socio-economic exclusion. Most of them struggle to find a place in their host country’s educational system and labour market, although they might have valuable skills and knowledge that could be further developed to fit the needs of the local society.
The project is already halfway through. The consortium of the project joined forces to create the Transnational research report “Needs analysis and community based socioeconomic ecosystem mapping. Data Collection and Analysis”. This has led to the development of ENFEM local integration strategies which was presented in Lithuania by the Social Innovation Fund at its first capitalization event organised in 24 November, 2022.
