Teave

“Social inclusion is defined as the process of improving the terms of participation in society for people who are disadvantaged on the basis of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion, or economic or other status, through enhanced opportunities, access to resources, voice and respect for rights . Thus, social inclusion is both a process and a goal.  <...>, it is contended that promoting social inclusion requires tackling social exclusion by removing barriers to people’s participation in society, as well as by taking active inclusionary steps to facilitate such participation. As a political response to the exclusion challenge, social inclusion is thus a more deliberate process of encompassing and welcoming all persons and embracing greater equality and tolerance.” Read more: un.org. Social Inclusion and exclusion.
﻿
Social Inclusion topic is inseparable from socially vulnerable groups. 
ESF (European Social Funds) identifies the following vulnerable groups:
a person belonging to social, cultural, ethnic and religious minorities; a migrant, a person of foreign origin;
a disabled person;
a person who has no habitual residence (a homeless person, a resident in a boarding house, crisis centre, a person who received the bailiff’s call to move out, a person living in a house which does not meet the requirements for construction and particular standards).
a person belonging to a socially vulnerable group (a person who is a beggar, vagrant, addict, prone to commit crimes, a victim of physical or sexual violence in a family, having lost skills of independent life, a child facing learning difficulties or out-of-school child, illiterate  and belonging to other socially vulnerable groups specified in the Description of the Terms and Conditions for Financing of Projects.)
﻿
Looking at the list above, discuss with your colleagues about vulnerable social groups you are working with and how you are ensuring social inclusion.
