The Slovak Anti-Poverty Network (SAPN) started working informally in 2004, but was not formally registered until the end of 2006. It became an official member of EAPN at the EAPN 2007 General Assembly held in Budapest.
SAPN takes a human rights-based approach to poverty. It supports the goals and activities of the European Anti-Poverty Network, and operates on the basis of participation, partnership and solidarity.
Although still a relatively young organization, SAPN links together more than two dozen NGOs with strong front-line social work experience, and academic backgrounds.
The Network aims to pool NGOs and voluntary groups’ forces in a more efficient drive to put the struggle against poverty on the public agenda, with a focus on human rights. It does this by commenting on how social legislation impacts on the most vulnerable groups, and by getting media coverage of ignored local and regional situations that are at odds with the European Social Charter and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.
SAPN is working to create a forum of non-profit organisations and academic experts to exchange experiences, information and good practice, but also to take a critical stance on domestic policies aimed at achieving delivering the Nice common objectives (2001) under the Open Method of Coordination on social inclusion and tackling poverty.
