Social Dialogue – Decent Work Programme 2nd Call for Project Proposals

NOFO: Global Innovation through Science and Technology

Deadline: 13 May 2020

Applications are now open for Social Dialogue – Decent Work Programme 2014-2021.

The programme “Social Dialogue – Decent Work” (hereafter referred to as “the Programme”) shall contribute to the general objectives of the Norway Grants 2014-2021, respectively to the reduction of economic and social disparities in the European Economic Area and to strengthening bilateral relations between Norway and the Beneficiary States.

The objective of the Programme is strengthened tripartite cooperation between employer organisations, trade unions and public authorities and the promotion of decent work. It will support social dialogue, contribute to ensure that Beneficiary States are better equipped to deal with the challenges following high unemployment and to establish decent work practices, and improve the enforcement of legislation and policies on decent work and social dialogue.

The Programme will also seek to stimulate and develop long-term bilateral cooperation between Norway and all the Beneficiary States covered by the Programme (Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia).

One important aspect of improving social dialogue is to get public authorities more involved in a structured and constructive way. Therefore, the Programme addresses tripartite cooperation and encourages cooperation between public authorities in the Beneficiary States and relevant public authorities in Norway, e.g. on enforcement of labour law and on the fight against work-related crime.

Outcomes

The Programme in Poland is expected to reach the following three outcomes:

  1. Improved social dialogue and cooperation,
  2. Enhanced implementation of the decent work agenda (fair and decent working conditions),
  3. Facilitated access to employment.

Projects supported under the first call for Poland focus primarily on outcomes 1 and 2. This second call for proposals will therefore only concern project applications aiming at delivering on outcome 3:
