Studies
- Regional Indicators to reflect social exclusion and poverty
Aim
The aim of the study is to identify the appropriate methodologies
and strategies for the development of indicators of social exclusion
and poverty at regional level.
Given the likely limited scope for defining monetary poverty indicators
at the regional level, attention should probably focus on the non-monetary
dimension of social exclusion,e.g. relating to access to essential
health services, education, transport, etc. and living and housing
conditions, including social participation.

and ethnic minorities
Aim
The aim of the study is to analyse and identify the most effective
supply – side policy measures to ensure access to
decent housing for migrants with legal status and people belonging
to ethnic minority groups. It should also identify demand –
side needs of migrants and ethnic minorities, as perceived by themselves
and others, in order to evaluate how adequately supply is meeting
demands.
The objective that this contract intends to achieve is to assist the
development of more coherent and integrated policies in relation to
access
to housing for migrants and ethnic minority people as part of the
further development of Member States' NAPs/incl

- How household structures and the roles of women and men affect
poverty and social exclusion
Aim
This contract is intended to fund analysis of how changes in household
structures, informal support structures and the roles of women and
men within the household can affect poverty and social exclusion.
The study should allow answering a number of crucial questions like:
how is the role of the family and the extended family changing in
providing support to individuals? In particular, do changes in household
structures, kinship networks, family support systems and the changing
roles of women and men within the household impact on the well-being
and social inclusion of household members? Which policies, institutional
arrangements and practices meet families' needs? And, finally, what
examples of good practices and what lessons can be drawn from the
analysis?
