EUROSHIP project

The EUROSHIP project aims to provide original and gender sensitive assessment of the current gaps in social protection against poverty and social exclusion in Europe. Nine universities and research institutes as well as a European network of civil society organisation form the  EUROSHIP consortium and collaborate closely to implement the project. Through the involvement of national and European stakeholders, EUROSHIP is working to develop policy recommendations on how to strengthen social citizenship at the national and EU level.

What we do
  • Examine the social protection systems (including the role of minimum income schemes);
  • Focus on the experiences of three vulnerable population groups (youth at risk of in-work poverty, prime age precarious workers with care obligations, and low-income persons with disabilities, including the elderly with long-term care needs);
  • Interrogate the implications of introducing digital technologies to deliver social protection systems and address some of the problems arising from this broader social and economic transformation; and
  • Analyse how the EU may contribute to close current gaps in social citizenship in a multilevel and territorially diverse Europe.
