The project – EaSI NCP Bulgaria - aims to establish and maintain a National Contact Point (NCP) in Bulgaria to inform about the EaSI strand of ESF+, its opportunities, programs and application requirements; to assist in sharing and promoting project results and support (potential) beneficiaries, the public, and all stakeholders. The NCP’s work will contribute to strengthening employment and skills among various target groups, helping improve social protection and inclusion, fostering safe and fair working conditions, as well as encouraging social innovations and experimentation. The consortium is led by an BCAUSE Foundation, who has strong expertise in social economy programming and projects, in partnership with Sofia Development Assossiation. The Ministry of Labor and Social Policy supports the project as an associated partner. Over two years, the NCP will offer online and walk-in consultations and organize public events. Transnational cooperation through job shadowing, attending events and projects is planned, with partners from other experienced European countries, for mutual learning, capacity building and boosting the visibility of the NCP and EaSI across countries and communities.

The EaSI project is funded by the European Union and has a duration of two years. (2022-2024).
