    Description
    Only one activity was carried out following a request from Mexico’s National System for Integral Family Development to elaborate and transfer to case managers and prosecutors a set of guidelines for tackling bullying and violence in schools. Experts from Portugal and Spain brought examples from their own systems to the attention of partners and produced a first draft of the guidelines, according to a psycho-social approach incorporated as a basic targeted social service as part of the school system.

    Description
    The main outcome of the technical assistance has been to put high in the local political and institutional agenda the issue of extending social protection coverage to the informal street vendors of Bogota, which are the main target population of the Instituto para la Economia Social (IPES)’s efforts in the area of local socio-economic development. Experts (three different teams coming from France, Italy, and Spain) first of all succeeded to clarify the terms of the debate through a stakeholders’ mapping and a feasibility study in view of the current situation and status of informal street vendors. Thanks to IPES’ proactive role, the missions of experts have become a tool for mobilizing a number of local actors, starting from the Municipality of Bogota and State agencies, all the way to local NGOs, around the idea of ensuring some sort of social support against life’s risks faced by informal street vendors.
