Final comments…• This Learning Network operates under the ESF framework of
encouraging trans-national collaboration and learning, with a focus on the Active Inclusion and the improvement of employability and employer awareness of marginalised communities.
• Although new and unique, the network will capitalise on the outcomes of surveys already carried out at a national and European level and the results of previous learning networks, in order to develop and improve the tools and strategies already shared and proved by member states. In the future it will continue to add value to the field through cooperation with other networks, through mutual support, communication and sharing of studies and findings.
