OP 2014-2020 – support scope Scope in line with thematic objectives as defined in Article 9 of the general regulation: promoting employment and supporting labour mobility; promoting social inclusion and combating poverty; investing in education, skills and lifelong learning; enhancing institutional capacity and an efficient public administration. Details to be worked out in the 1st quarter of 2013

Transnational cooperation within ESF - future Transnational projects in all thematic objectives (also combining diffferent objectives). Coordinated approach at the EU level (if it will be decided) and additionaly projects not within coordinated approach (cooperation in the Baltic Sea Region). All standard projects may be transformed in transnational (by adding component) – also in the Baltic Sea Region.

Challenges for the future Improvement of the EUSBSR coordination system (both at the EU and national level). The National Contact Point will probably continue its efforts to link different actors (within special working group). Better project identification (projects contributing to achievement of the EUSBSR goals) – perhaps some IT solutions allowing to mark projects at the application stage and produce relevant statistics. Coordinated promotional actions aimed at enhancing EUSBSR awareness among the broad public (potential ESF beneficiaries).
