Summary
The project will pilot the integrated way of organising the delivery of social benefits and services to the most vulnerable residents of the City of Miskolc, Bábonyibérc and Tetemvár; In each of these, to mobilise residents and connect them to services, including offering targeted employment support, a Neighbourhood Access Point will work with a Community Action Group. Both will be supported by a city-wide Social Innovation Resource Centre reporting to a Social Innovation Committee responsible for reorganising the systems of service provision on a city level.
The project’s aim is to jointly formulate an Action Plan (local action plan) to promote the integration of deprived neighbourhoods, under a complementary, two-fold approach – i) improving local governance mechanisms, including establishing local coordination and multifaceted partnerships as a basis for a successful integration process, creating a broad-based local government, setting commonly agreed goals and carrying out joint actions; and ii) Empowering communities and targeting at least 300 individuals through focused/direct testing interventions. As a result, the project offers to develop and pilot a scalable model of integrated service delivery, ensuring better targeted and channelled welfare services, combined with active inclusion measures.
