Testimonials
“Disability inclusion has come to the agenda of national and international organizations recently, due to which mutual learning and exchange of experiences and information are important (see Art. 32 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities).
This was a good learning experience for me and my institution, as the approach was peer-to-peer and I could also learn from the other expert and the partner country very much. It is a very interesting forum for collaboration between Europe and other parts of the world.
It is really wonderful that the SOCIEUX+ Facility is seriously taking disability inclusion into account, which is not yet self-evident unfortunately in many other programmes.”
“We are pleased to be partnering with SOCIEUX +. It has enabled us to deepen the studies on green jobs and the green economy in general for a better development of our country; the work of the experts amazed us.”
“A very rewarding experience carried out in an interesting environment, marked by significant political and cultural difficulties but, nonetheless, absolutely worthwhile! SOCIEUX+’s approach is innovative and respectful of local diversity, promoting local ownership and processes at several levels.”
“This professional experience allowed me to better understand and identify the training and professional integration needs of the country. My observation is that changes in the professional field are making themselves felt and becoming urgent for companies so that they can meet the needs of “tomorrow”. Professional integration only comes through training. SOCIEUX+ does a wonderful job in all sectors and its expertise, which perfectly meets the needs of partners, is highly appreciated by partners.”
“Being able to participate as an expert in this international cooperation project has been an honor for me, and also a satisfaction because I have been able to present my knowledge and experience for the benefit of the citizens of Girardota through its Mayor’s Office, but also because I have acquired new knowledge on how to manage problematic situations related to the armed conflict and with the most vulnerable groups, through the implementation of socio-labor projects directly related to employment and decent work.”
“The CPPF, which was created in 2014 and started its activities in 2015, has been collaborating with SOCIEUX+ since its inception in several areas of activity. To date, the CPPF’s collaboration with SOCIEUX+ has contributed globally and positively to strengthening its performance and has given it a reputation at national level as a reference social security fund. SOCIEUX+ is an asset for the CPPF, as they work together to achieve the strategic vision of the Director General. The expertise of SOCIEUX+ is based on the high quality professional experience of its experts.”
