PROGRESS - Establishment of 3-year partnerships with EU-level networks active in the field of combating social exclusion, discrimination. Deadlines for submission: July 30th, 2007 Call launched in the framework of the programme PROGRESS to support 3-year partnerships, in the field of employment and equal opportunities. Non-governmental organisations have an important contribution to make towards affecting and/or accompanying change in employment and social policies and legislation. Making a difference requires a sustained, cohesive coalition capable of mobilising and analysing information, making that information available to key actors and mobilising many sources of influence. Non-governmental organisations are in a central position to influence policy in the European Community and in the Member states through their national members. Influence is gained through the increased expertise and information which are important to policy formulation and implementation. European networks have a key role to play in representing, promoting and defending the rights and interests of their constituencies at Community level, by virtue of their position as the European Community’s main contacts in the implementation of policies. The strength of European networks lies in their capacity to gather and mobilise relevant members from different Member States into an open forum of discussion or exchange of expertise and experience able to inform and influence policy-making, as well as relaying EU action vis-à-vis network members. (…) In order to comply with the above-mentioned requirements, the Commission publishes the present Call for proposals with a view to selecting – on the basis of a triennial strategic plan – EU-level networks to work with the Commission and receive Community support on a stable and regular basis for the period 2008-2010.
