Part of the European Commission's Lifelong Learning Programme, the LEONARDO programme funds a wide range of actions, notably cross-border mobility initiatives; co-operation projects to develop and spread innovation; and thematic networks. Some potential sources of support for social housing organisations…

You want to develop a project aiming at collecting training practices for social housing employees delivering local services in different EU countries, in order to improve their work and their image?
You want to transfer to another country methods and tools linked to a specific issue such as energy efficiency, ageing, fight against racism in the social housing sector?

Then LEONARDO might interest you.

The programme is managed nationally (see list of national agencies below) and the next call for proposals is expected in the first half of 2009
