Project Community Force - Developing Communities' Social Networks to Overcome Poverty and Social Exclusion



Funded by the Community Action Programme to Combat Social Exclusion 2002-2006 - European Commission DG Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities

Welcome to Community Force

We would like to invite you, to view the following pages to inform yourself about the goals and processes of our transnational project.

If there are any questions or incitations, please use contacts and resort to the specified persons via mail or telephone.

The project Community Force takes account of the productive potential of excluded groups in majority societies. These potentials might be used in a socio-political way to prevent poverty and to overcome exclusion. The expression community implies a development of social strategies and organisational forms to support and help each other to protect own interests.

   General conditions:
Duration: 2 years (from October 2005 to September 2007) - Partners

   Line of action:

   First year
The first goals of this project are to find the special strengths and qualities of particular social networks of the selected communities in the partner countries. Several transnational exchanges between the partners will complete this analysis. The results of the first year will be documented in an English study "Community Force".

   Second year
In the second year the study's socio-political aspects and their consequences for the European social policy will be discussed on a transnational level and with an international circle of people from different social fields. To submit these intentions workshops and round-table discussions will be organised.
