ENSA General Assembly 2011 - Carinthia and Vienna
In collaboration with the European Local Inclusion and Social Action Network (ELISAN), and the 2010 Social Inclusion Regional Group (2010 SIRG), ENSA will hold its Annual General Assembly 2011 from the 7th to the 10 of June of June 2011.The event will be hosted by the Federal Countries of Carinthia and Vienna.
Envisaging progress in a context of demographic changes and reduced material resources in the aftermath of the economic and financial crisis requires the creation of new opportunities for exchanges and innovation. From a perspective of shared social responsibilities, this year’s ENSA General Assembly will highlight innovative strategies, best practises and project ideas promoting social cohesion and aiming to reduce poverty. Taking advantage of the momentum created by the 2011 European Year of Volunteering, a particular focus will be dedicated to actions carried out by the third sector, which is increasingly identified as critical for the future delivery of social services.
It’s a pleasure to invite you to the ENSA General Annual Assembly and to all or any of the five thematic network meetings where participation would me most appreciated.
Please confirm your participation by using the attached registration form. We look forward to receiving your reply and to welcoming you to the regions of Carinthia and Vienna for what we anticipate will be informative and interesting events. A draft programme of all events is available.
