Overall objective:

To contribute to improved position of vulnerable groups in Serbia, to their increased employability and better integration into the society.

Specific Project Objective:

Reducing barriers to social services and access to the labour market of the most vulnerable groups in Serbia, through integrative approaches and new partnerships of different actors.

This will be done by testing innovative approaches and gathering robust evidence through the support of the beneficiaries of minimum income benefits in the Republic of Serbia to decrease barriers to social and labour market integration, and new partnerships between authorities/policy makers, non-governmental organizations and businesses. Through access to services that will enable them to integrate in the labour market, the action will enable those in most vulnerable situations to gain sufficient resources and adequate income for life in dignity, thus meeting the requirements of the European Pillar of Social Rights (Pillar 14).
