This aims at preventing social exclusion and encouraging a return to the labour market. A key element of the project is to gear the activities of training institutes and the various public services to this end. The latter are subject entities that are followed from preliminary research to the application phase, whose source ideas have been generated either by a specific need based on existing Turku TEP projects, or are raised by network actors. The TEP is also aimed at developing co-operatives and the third sector. The visits aim to accelerate the development of these areas that are so crucial to competitiveness.
Analysis leads to action designed to ensure successful implementation.
