The European Centre organised the ‘Bridge Building in Social Welfare Policy’ Workshop with the European Centre’s National Liaison Officials (NLOs) in Vienna, on 19-20 April 2018. NLOs and representatives from the Western Balkans and Eastern Partnership countries, Board Members from Austria and the Slovak Republic, and officials from the Austrian Federal Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs, Health and Consumer Protection, met to exchange experiences regarding the implementation of transnational projects. They also discussed project ideas and explored different cooperation and funding opportunities. This was the first event with this format and scope, and an important step towards deepened cooperation with the NLOs in the region.
