Under the Living Together programme, we have launched a number of community-based projects to engage diverse community groups. These projects have been designed in collaboration with local partners and focus on the Living Together themes of minority and new migrant communities.

We are using our networks to help create new relationships and collaborations across borders. These cross-border collaborations will provide an important opportunity to examine the issues, compare experiences, gather resources and connect thinking.

Establishing partnerships across borders encourages awareness and dialogue between national governments, civil society and citizens. Through this multi-lateral approach, we are encouraging the development of links between communities and nations. We are encouraging partners across Europe to share their experience of working with communities and to develop joint initiatives that enhance the interaction of these communities. These projects focus in particular on working with civil society and young leaders.
