Dear colleagues,
We would like to kindly invite you to the final conference of our
project "Rescaling of Social Welfare Policies - A comparative study on
the path towards multi-level governance in Europe".
The aim of this project is to improve the information and knowledge base
for assessing intended and unintended consequences of policies
concerning multi-level governance (centralization/decentralization) in
social welfare domains such as social assistance and local policies
against poverty, employment policies, care for the elderly, and
inclusion policies for migrants. The project is to describe different
strategies and solutions in European countries which are facing similar
challenges and could thus learn from each other.
After three years of research, we present our results at a conference in
Lucerne (Switzerland), 13-14 November 2008, to a broader public, in
particular by presenting our findings to experts in the field of social
policy research, confronting the chosen approach with scholars,
practitioners and policy-makers, and developing a dialogue about further
perspectives of multi-level governance in Europe.
Please find more information in the agenda
