non-employees)
Invest in skills development and readjusment
which is connected to the overall strategic
development in the organisations and the
position of the individual in the working life .
Focus on SMEs

Priority axis 2 – Broaden the pathway to employment
Investing in – inter alia – the development and
implementation of methods that contribute to the
inclusion of those outside the labour market
Strengthening the national labour market policy
The target groups (at least 75 000 participants) are:
- young people (15–24 yrs),

that contribute to the inclusion
of young people (15-24 yrs)

Support structures for projects and thematic

Transnational cooperation
2014-2020
• Common framework: coordinated calls, common
themes/prios, two centralized calls, EC support structure,
database, partner search facilities
• Flexible approach: as at present
• Dual approach: A combination of the two
Sweden will probably choose the dual approach
Round table transnational
cooperation in the Baltic sea region
• “The primary aim of the Round Table will be to find
a common understanding, and the mechanisms
needed, for implementing an improved and efficient
transnational cooperation in the Baltic Sea Region
within the frame of the ESF 2014 - 2020.”
