Implementation and Monitoring

The National and Executive Agencies will report annually on their implementation of the Inclusion Strategy and progress made. These reports will include detailed statistics on Inclusion projects, that are now made possible in particular through the information provided in the application forms. Each Agency will include details on at least 3 examples of high-quality inclusion projects run during the year.

On the basis of the reporting of National and Executive Agencies, the Commission will take appropriate measures to insure adequate and fair implementation of the Strategy in all countries. On the other hand, the Commission, together with SALTO Inclusion, will also identify good practices and communicate them to the Agencies.

The Commission will insure that inclusion is considered as a priority in all relevant documents produced to implement the programme.
The Commission, together with SALTO Inclusion, will ensure that the staff of National and Executive Agencies receive training on inclusion, as well as regularly meet in order to exchange good practice, share ideas and give feedback on inclusion.

The Commission and SALTO Inclusion will work in close collaboration and keep a constant information flow. They will meet at least three times a year.

The Commission, together with SALTO Information, will create an Inclusion section in the online tool of the Agencies' network, Youthnet by the end of year 2007. This tool will then be used by the Commission and the National and Executive Agencies to document good practices and projects, to collaborate and to discuss on inclusion. Thematic sub-sections, as for instance: Inclusion in the European Voluntary Service (Action 2), may also be created if relevant.
