Abstract
ICF GHK Consulting was commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to undertake the evaluation of the Innovation, Transnational and Mainstreaming (ITM) strand of the current European Social Fund (ESF) programme. The aims of the study were to examine the impacts of the ITM projects, see what works in terms of moving people closer to the labour market and identify whether this is influencing future mainstream policy and policymakers. Key areas for investigation included how the ITM strand is being delivered, whether ITM has been effective in generating new ideas to influence policy and delivery, and the key lessons for future transnational activities in the next round of ESF.
The study approach included a telephone survey of 20 ITM projects; case study research with 12 projects, and attendance at thematic events and interviews with 17 ‘policy influencers’ to explore potential mainstreaming impacts.
