Training and information on EU programs and funds for social
inclusion and active citizenship initiatives
Slovenia – 25/29 October 2007
50 years after the signature of the Treaty of Rome and despite of the goodwill of the Signers, the concept of
“European citizenship” looks far from being part of the daily life of European citizens.
European Institutions continue to be often perceived as something too far: more than opportunities, Europe
and its Institutions are perceived as «another wheel» of bureaucracy: «Eurocracy» more than “European
Democracy”.
The European Union, its Institutions and its programs and initiatives can indeed be a source of support for
many activities run by active civil society in Europe, in particular those active in the field of social work
through voluntary activities.
Quite often, European citizens are not aware of the links between daily life and activities of
European Institutions. This is part of a vicious circle to be broken: people don’t know rights and
opportunities offered by Europe and therefore don’t look for information and the less they express
an active citizenship and therefore the less they know.
The project
A network of NGOs working in Italy, Slovenia and Spain is currently running a project under the “Europe for
Citizens” which include different meetings in order to present how European Union influence our daily life
and how its actions can be “used” to support active citizenship activities run by non-profit organizations.
Our project aims to break the vicious circle mentioned above: instead of «waiting for citizens
looking for information» we want promote an «information that goes toward the citizens» and by
this mean promote their rights, their participation and active citizenship.
This training
The training and information session to be run in October will provide the participants with information and

first level skills to use different European programs in order to support and co-fund their social activities. In
particular 4 different issues will be addressed, in relation to specific European initiatives:
-Youth (Youth in action program)
-Active citizenship (Europe for Citizens program)
-Social inclusion (Progress program)
-Social inclusion not only in Europe: International solidarity and Development issues EIDHR
European instruments for democracy and human rights and ENPI – European neighborhood policy
instruments)
The participant’s profile
From what said it is evident that we aim to particularly involve members, staff and volunteers of social
organizations who promote the participation and active citizenship by mean of volunteering and
informal learning processes. All the participants are requested to act, once back in their
country/organizations, as multiplier, sharing the info and the acquired skills inside their organization
in order to improve their effectiveness and the impact of their activities at local level.
