ESIF Programme Structure
What is CLLD?
Key components
•Targeted activities to support bottom-up social inclusion
•Resource should be targeted at the 20% most deprived areas
•Driven by local needs and potential to unlock opportunities, growth and jobs
•Innovative local strategies developed and led by LAGs
•Focus upon areas of between 10,000-150,000 people
•Minimum value of £2.16m (€3m) public funding per CLLD area – this includes European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), European Social Fund (ESF) and other public match funding
Sunderland has 70 Lower Super Output Areas in the top 20% most deprived in England. This equates to 37% of the city’s total population.

Four Issues to Consider
Entrepreneurship
Reliance on public sector and large scale manufacturing
Improving the enterprise culture with higher numbers of small and medium sized
business start-ups, survivals and expansions
STEM “Drip Chart” to be provided by Kelly
Jobs/Skills Mismatch
STEM and jobs - now and in the future
Acquiring the right skills to ensure the city’s labour force is able to meet the existing
demand for jobs and attract a wider range of employers
Low skills relative to GB
Distance from the Labour
Market
Enabling those furthest away from the local labour market
to get closer to and into work, and those in work to be more productive and progress their
careers
Community infrastructure and capacity building that seeks to
mobilise resources and assets to improve economic performance, including facilitating community participation and engagement
to address specific issues
