THE USE OF EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND IN SOCIO-ECONOMIC INTEGRATION. CASE STUDY: ROMANIA
Keywords:
European Social Fund, Europe 2020, Employment, Youth, RomaniaAbstract
Our paper analyses the 2007-2013 and 2014-2020 funding periods in terms of budgets, targets, measures, types of Operational Programmes, accession rate, concrete impact and further recommendations, all from youth employment perspective, with more insight on Romania’s case. This topic is of most interest since the member states use the ESF to design, develop and implement custom-made actions adapted to their national priorities and needs. The ESF can be viewed as a pillar of ensuring the socio-economic integration of the Member States in the context of the European Single Market.
