Project description

The project aims at evaluating the”qualification programme”, gradually phased in throughout the country from 2007. The question we will try to answer is whether the programme fulfils the goal of helping marginal workers into the labour market. The project is implemented in cooperation with the Work Research Institute (WRI).
