Sustainable Development Goals

The MAPS Project is a three-year initiative aiming at strengthening policy-making and programming on migration and forced displacement in Sub-Saharan Africa.
With a €10 million budget funded primarily by the European Commission, MAPS brings together a multidisciplinary network of African and European partners—including Sapienza University of Rome, five Italian universities with UNESCO Chairs, and universities in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, and Spain. It is supported by advisory bodies such as the IOM Regional Data Hub and the University of the Witwatersrand.

SOCIEUX+ EU Expertise on Social Protection, Labour and Employment is a facility for technical cooperation between public and social partner peers established and co-funded by the European Union (EU). The general objective is to expand and improve access to better employment opportunities and inclusive social protection systems.

Based on the peer exchange model, SOCIEUX+ shares knowledge and experiences through short-term missions and activities that enhance the capacity to design, manage, and monitor inclusive, effective, and sustainable employment strategies and social protection systems.

SOCIEUX+ mobilises European public expertise for short-term technical cooperation activities with their peers outside the EU, and is available in more than 160 eligible countries and territories worldwide.

Nutrition for Development (N4D) seeks to strengthen collaboration and partnerships between the EC, member states, and partner countries, with the wider aim to reduce maternal and child malnutrition.

The European Commission's Development Education and Awareness Raising Programme, DEAR, supports projects that engage Europeans in worldwide issues of social, economic and environmental development. The DEAR Programme works with civil society organisations and local authorities to promote global justice, human rights, sustainable development and democratic participation.
