This publication explains what minimum income schemes are at present throughout the EU and how and why minimum income schemes should be "adequate", i.e. for everyone to live a dignified life, as EU Member States had already committed to ensure in... 1992.
This explainer aims to make poverty more visible, understood, and acted on, as part of EAPN’s build-up campaign to 2010: the EU year against poverty.
EAPN's new manual on Structural Funds is specially designed for social inclusion NGOs determined to ensure that EU structural funds are effective instruments for making Europe a more inclusive society.
