Course of action
Within the framework of the FSIO project, project examples in Switzerland and abroad will be researched and evaluated. Of interest are, on the one hand, projects that encourage participation in the process of policy making and implementation and, on the other hand, initiatives that promote participatory competencies. The research project is characterized by the participation of people at risk of and affected by poverty in the research process (user involved research).
