Community Work

Last update

The Ministry of Family Affairs, Solidarity, Living Together and Reception of Refugees supports a number of community social work initiatives whose main objective is to promote the cohesion of a group of people, neighbourhoods or less developed regions by reducing inequalities and increasing their degree of participation in social life.

This social work is carried out through acquaintance between and daily contact with local actors (institutions, services, merchants, associations and inhabitants), both through events organised on an ad hoc basis and long-term projects.
