FEAD country fiche - Austria (2018 version available)

Overview

Austria provides basic material assistance through its operational programme. The FEAD operational programme in Austria aims to support children in low-income and disadvantaged households.

In Austria children and young people are more likely than other groups to be affected by poverty, with more than 10% of those aged below 18 affected by material deprivation.

The operational programme supports children directly, particularly with assistance for education. It provides children in low-income and low-asset households with back-to-school packs to reduce the financial burden that comes with the start of a new school year. The back-to-school packs, which include different options based on the children’s age and school year, also aim to boost children’s motivation at school and to put a stop to stigmatisation.

FEAD country fiche - Belgium (2018 version available)

Overview

The FEAD operational programme in Belgium aims to provide food assistance to people in need, as well as material assistance specifically to children. It is hoped this will contribute to the EU2020 objective of reducing the number of people in or at risk of poverty and social exclusion.

In 2018, 16,4% of the Belgian population was considered at risk of poverty, with 5.4% unable to afford a meal with meat, poultry or fish (or vegetarian equivalent) every second day.

The operational programme in Belgium helps to combat poverty by providing food to public social welfare centres and other registered partner organisations. The food is distributed for free to the people living under the poverty threshold (including migrants and refugees). The Managing Authority pays particular attention to the nutritional quality of the products distributed, as well as to their suitability for consumption.

FEAD country fiche - Croatia (2018 version available)

Overview

Croatia provides both food and basic material assistance through its operational programme. The FEAD in Croatia aims to support disadvantaged households and homeless people. It complements existing national programmes, enabling a wider number of people to receive assistance.

Food deprivation has been identified as one of the largest issues in Croatia. In 2012, 16.2% of the population could not afford a meal with meat, chicken, fish or a vegetarian equivalent every second day.  Additionally, the material deprivation rate for the same year amounted to 35.3%.

The operational programme works with partner organisations to purchase, store and distribute food either as meals or food packages. Selected partner organisations are responsible for purchasing material assistance and support children directly by distributing school materials and other basic necessities.

FEAD country fiche - Cyprus (2018 version available)

Overview

The strategic objective of this Operational Programme is twofold. On the one hand, it contributes to the EU 2020 target to reduce the number of people at risk of poverty and/or social exclusion across Europe by 20 million by 2020 through reducing material deprivation of people in need. On the other hand, it helps tackle the problem of unemployment by combating early school leaving and supporting people with low or no qualifications to attend school.

Since 2014, two actions are being supported through the Operational Programme of the Fund for European Aid to the Most Deprived: the ‘Baby Pack’ and the ‘School Breakfast’.

Since 2015, the Guaranteed Minimum Income Scheme (GMI) has been put in place and has been fully operational in order to create a single registry of people and households who live close to or under the poverty threshold. The ‘Baby Pack’ has taken advantage of this registry and now supports deprived households with newly born babies to meet their basic needs.

Since 2016, it was identified that private donations to the Ministry of Education and Culture for the provision of free meals to students had been significantly reduced. FEAD and its ‘School Breakfast’ came to complement these reductions and is now providing breakfast for free to deprived students from all levels of public education.

FEAD country fiche - Czech Republic (2018 version available)

Overview

The Czech Republic supports deprived families with children, and those who are homeless, by providing food and basic material assistance through its FEAD operational programme.

Statistical data from 2013 suggests that 14.6% of the population were at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Homelessness is the most serious form of social exclusion; recent estimates suggest there are approximately 30,000 homeless people living in the Czech Republic.

The operational programme supports households at risk of poverty and social exclusion. Food deprivation operations are nationwide and provide food to the most deprived persons. Since 2015, FEAD food distribution has provided lunches for school children at risk of poverty. In addition, material goods such as clothing, school supplies and toiletries are provided to families with children in serious social need.

FEAD country fiche - Denmark (2018 version available)

Overview
Denmark provides social inclusion assistance through its operational programme. The FEAD is used to tackle poverty and homelessness and aims to strengthen social inclusion among the most socially vulnerable people, including those who are currently homeless and have social and health problems.
Homelessness in Denmark is largely concentrated among vulnerable groups. Research suggests the homeless population of Denmark is largely categorised by having additional serious social problems. In 2013, 65% of those who were homeless were addicted to drugs, alcohol or medicines, 31% had both psychiatric challenges and a substance abuse and 27% had at least one physical disease. 
The operational programme in Denmark works to support new activities that complement the services already available for the target group. It aims to encourage more homeless people to use these existing social services, in order to make lasting improvements to their circumstances.

FEAD country fiche - Estonia (2018 version available)

Overview

The FEAD operational programme in Estonia aims to support the most deprived people by providing food assistance.
In 2018, food costs in Estonia had risen since the previous year. The at-risk of poverty rate had also risen, to 21.9% in 2018 (survey year) compared to 21% in 2017. Families in which no-one works, or where the work intensity is very low, are the most exposed to poverty.
The operational programme combats food poverty by distributing food packages to disadvantaged people, who are identified according to the criteria set by the Ministry of Social Affairs. The food is purchased and distributed at least twice a year.

FEAD country fiche - France (2018 version available)

Overview
The FEAD operational programme in France aims to provide food assistance to people in need. The FEAD operational programme finances the purchase, storage and transportation of food aid which is then distributed to the most deprived people through partner organisations. It aims to contribute to the EU2020 objective of reducing the number of people in or at risk of poverty and social exclusion.
In 2011, 8.7 million people in France were living below the poverty threshold. Eurostat research in 2012 found that 8.2% of the French population were unable to finance a meal which included meat, fish or a vegetarian equivalent every two days.
The operational programme distributes food for free to the most deprived (including migrants and refugees) in many forms; for example, in the streets, in buildings such as shelters or hostels, and at food distribution premises. The provision of food also offers an opportunity to establish support and initiate social integration, particularly for those living on the fringes of society.

FEAD country fiche - Germany (2018 version available)

Overview
In Germany the FEAD is used to enhance the social inclusion of the most deprived people. The FEAD’s intervention strategy aims to improve access to state aid for the affected groups to create conditions that lead to social inclusion.
For a number of years there has been a high level of migration of EU citizens to Germany. Germany provides specific advisory and support services to immigrants from third countries; however, these cannot be accessed by deprived people from EU countries.

The operational programme aims to improve the social inclusion of the most deprived EU immigrants and their children. Projects are aimed at supporting immigrant children to access early education and helping homeless people to access the advisory and support services available to them. The operational programme also aims to improve social inclusion of the homeless or people at risk of homelessness.

FEAD country fiche - Greece (2018 version available)

Overview

The FEAD operational programme in Greece aims to provide food and basic material assistance to the most deprived households.
Income reduction during the recession has resulted in an increase of the population who are at risk of poverty or exclusion. EL-STAT data suggests 50.3% of the poor population is facing food deprivation which amounts to more than 450,000 households in the Hellenic Republic.
The seriousness of food deprivation led to a significant allocation of the operational programme towards food assistance for the most disadvantaged. Food aid and basic material assistance is given to all extremely poor people (around 400,000) including those who are homeless. It also aims to improve their chances for social reintegration.

FEAD country fiche - Italy (2018 version available)

Overview
Italy’s operational programme provides both food and basic material assistance to the most deprived.
Even though it has slightly improved in recent years, severe material deprivation is very high in Italy, hitting 11.5% of the population (against an average of 6.9% in the Euro area). Material deprivation is even higher for children, and it has almost doubled since the onset of the financial crisis.
The programme dedicates about 60% of its resources to food aid, delivered through an extensive network of about 11,000 local NGOs. However, it also aims to provide a strategic contribution to social inclusion, by providing school materials for children from deprived families, school meals at schools in deprived neighbourhoods, and basic material assistance for homeless people and deprived families. This will be accompanied by other forms of support, including counselling and help to access services.

The products are delivered to central distribution points, where partners arrange distribution to the target groups. Where necessary, home delivery of packages is provided to those who are particularly vulnerable or live in remote areas.

FEAD country fiche - Malta (2018 version available)

Overview
Malta’s FEAD operational programme has a financial allocation of EUR 3.9 million (EU contribution) and focuses exclusively on food deprivation. The programme targets the most disadvantaged households, particularly those including children and the elderly.
In 2014, 30.9% of people under the age of 16 and 23.3% of those over 65 were at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Food deprivation has severe and broad implications across all age groups. Children are less likely to achieve the level of education that they may aspire to, and food deprivation for adults significantly reduces their long-term potential to attain or hold a job.
The operational programme provides food aid to the most deprived households with the aim of alleviating the risk of poverty and improving living standards. The list of beneficiaries (households with the lowest income, who are eligible for certain non-contributory benefits, with two or more children or elderly persons) is drawn up by the Ministry for the Family and Social Solidarity, which also acts as an Intermediary Body for this programme.

FEAD country fiche - Romania (2018 version available)

Overview
Romania provides food and basic material assistance through its operational programme. The FEAD operational programme in Romania aims to provide food to those most in need, as well as school supplies to children in difficulty.
In 2014 Romania had one of the highest risks of poverty and social exclusion in the European Union (39.5%). According to 2014 Eurostat data, one in two children is poor. The economic crisis has made it impossible for many families to keep up with the costs of their children’s education, especially at higher levels. These factors have contributed to an increase in school dropout rates.
The Fund will help to strengthen social cohesion by alleviating the worst forms of poverty, mainly by distributing food packages to the most deprived. Secondly, school supplies and school bags will be distributed to children in low income and disadvantaged households, with the aim of boosting children’s motivation and reducing dropout rates.

FEAD country fiche - Sweden (2018 version available)

Overview
The FEAD operational programme in Sweden aims to increase the social inclusion and empowerment of socially vulnerable people.
Sweden attracts citizens from within the EU who are seeking work away from their native countries. However, not all temporary migrants are able to find work and often they are ineligible for assistance from the Swedish social services. In some cases, these migrants are in need of subsistence and overnight accommodation. According to the National Coordinator for vulnerable EU citizens, in November 2015 there were up to 4 700 citizens across the country begging or busking and living in makeshift camps.
The FEAD operational programme aims to support vulnerable EU citizens in their contact with Swedish society. Activities include civic education such as support locating shelters or hostels, information on Swedish society and translation of essential information, as well as health promotion and prevention activities.

FEAD country fiche - The Netherlands (2018 version available)

Overview
The objective of the operational programme in the Netherlands is to reduce the social exclusion of elderly people with a low disposable income.
The Netherlands believes that participation in paid work is the fastest way out of poverty and leads to social inclusion. However this does not serve groups such as pensioners who are no longer able to participate.
The operational programme aims to support elderly people directly, by raising awareness among the target group of what local support is available. The operational programme also aims to reinforce the target group’s social network and enhance the basic skills of those who feel socially excluded. The programme ensures the most deprived persons are monitored by support organisations or municipalities. Activities such as shared cultural activities and the organisation of short training courses are financed by the FEAD.
