Funded by the
European Social Fund (ESF), EQUAL tests
new ways of tackling discrimination and inequality
experienced by those in work and those looking for a
job. The key principals of EQUAL are : transnational
co-operation, innovation, empowerment, thematic and
partnership approach, dissemination and
mainstreaming to ensure that EQUAL informs policies
and practice. The activities are structured on the
four pillars of the European Employment Strategy:
Employability, Entrepreneurship, Adaptability and
Equal opportunities for women and men. In addition
EQUAL has a separate theme which addresses the needs
of asylum seekers.
