Il corpo europeo di solidarietà rientra nella rubrica 5 "Promozione del nostro stile di vita europeo", delle priorità della Commissione europea per l'attuale mandato. Inizialmente, il programma ha risentito di un’immagine e di una comunicazione poco incisive, in quanto era in concorrenza con altri programmi di lunga data che svolgevano attività analoghe. Con l'attuale proposta di regolamento, il programma diventerà uno sportello unico per tutte le opportunità di solidarietà e di volontariato umanitario ...

European Solidarity Corps

Briefing 12-10-2018

Those barriers include uncertainty and the risk of forfeiting social security benefits, the unclear framework for obtaining residence permits in some host countries, the lack of clear procedures for the recognition of the skills and competences gained through volunteering, the lack of positive action and information on volunteering opportunities, and insufficient ...

In sintesi 30-06-2015

However, Russian NGOs lack public support; in addition, their independence is being steadily undermined by repressive new laws and growing state control.

Social impact bonds are a results-based form of social impact investment. Private investors provide capital to launch or expand innovative social services that provide a public good.

The European Commission's proposal for the setting up of a European Voluntary Humanitarian Aid Corps (EVHAC) is aimed at encouraging young Europeans to contribute to EU humanitarian aid operations and make them more visible. With pilot volunteers already on the ground, adoption of the proposed regulation will ensure the initiative maximises its contribution to EU aid objectives.
