Briefings on Greater Manchester’s European funding plans

3 Oct 2014 - 11:24 by michelle.foster

Greater Manchester has an allocation of £356 million of European Structural Funds for the 2014-20 programme.

The Funds, overall, are designed to reduce economic inequalities by targeting additional resources at developing skills, jobs and enterprise for those people and areas which need extra help. There is also clear acknowledgement of the importance of social inclusion and social innovation as necessary conditions of economic inclusion; this is similarly acknowledged in the Greater Manchester Strategy, which also acknowledges the importance of our sector in delivering this.
