As Europe transforms, social progress must keep pace while leaving no one behind.
Since 1957, the European Social Fund (ESF) has been at the heart of this mission, driving quality jobs, skills and inclusion, all vital to EU’s competitiveness while building a fairer Europe.
With the next EU long-term budget approaching, we urge the EU to protect and build on 8 proven success factors of the ESF+:
- Guaranteed funding that invests in people
- Local-to-EU governance
- Focus on social inclusion
- Funding opportunities for local initiatives
- Strong partnerships across sectors
