On the other hand, although the EU frameworks are not finalised yet, the reflection on the programming of the post-2020 ESI Funds has been already launched at national level based on the Annex D of the 2019 European Semester country-reports. This is a crucial phase to settle the adequate conditions for future effective and successful Roma inclusion interventions. As such, a specific session was devoted to exchanging and discussing on the key elements to consider for the programming of the 2021-2027 period, building upon the experience gained in the 2014-2020 period on how Roma inclusion was programmed (e.g. use of the specific investment priority (IP) on Roma or other IPs or ESF/ERDF specific objectives, approach (target/mainstreaming/territorial), scope (national/regional), alignment with the policy framework…) and its impact on implementation. Network partners also reviewed ongoing and upcoming EURoma Network activities and products.
The second day focused on the Hungarian context. Participants had the opportunity to learn about the situation of Roma in the country and how the main policies and ESI Funds address Roma social inclusion. A number of ESI Funds-funded initiatives were also shared with a view to triggering a discussion on relevant elements to take into account in investments.
