To Increase the partners\u2019 capacity for supporting income generation initiatives<br \/>\n2. To increase the support for predominantly Roma families earning income from small businesses<br \/>\nThey all correspond directly with priority 3 of the Family Economic Success Program of TSA &#8211; Improving income opportunities through targeted micro credit and entrepreneurship programs. The project contributes to TSA mission by providing access to income opportunities for at-risk groups.<br \/>\nWe will continue to support integration through entrepreneurial development and creating employment opportunities in mainly rural areas and Roma suburbs in cities by supporting our regional partners to do it on local level.<br \/>\nBuilding closer links between Land Source of Income Foundation and the 5 reginal partner organizations successfully franchising the Model is also seen as an additional task, believing that this can bring synergy and increase the efficiency of the provided support. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: PT Serif,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In order to achieve the above stated goal and objectives, the project team will concentrate efforts and resources in three main areas of activities:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> 1.

Project management<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> The difference between this project and the previous three-stage one is that the focus will be on sustainability of the regional partners.
