About the Foundation
The Foundation for Social and
Economic Initiatives (FISE) is an independent non-profit
organisation. It has been created in 1990 by people who in the
times of communist Poland were affiliated with the democratic
opposition. Foundation is supervised by a Foundation Board chaired
by Henryk Wujec (democratic opposition activist, Polish MP).
For many years members of the Foundation’s Board included among
other prominent social figures, Jacek Kuroń (1934-2004, one of the
democratic leaders of opposition in the People's Republic of
Poland, twice a Minister of Labour and Social Policy) and Michał
Boni (member of democratic opposition, expert of the Center for
Social and Economic Research, current Secretary of State).
The organisation’s mission is a systemic approach and acting to
increase employment, especially among the professionally inactive
groups. The Foundation’s activities concentrate on questions of
unemployment, labour market and employment. Until now we have
realised over 100 projects, trained almost 7 thousand employees of
public and private labour market institutions, we have published
several tens of publications on labour market issues. We are also
managing an internet portal www.bezrobocie.org.pl devoted to those
matters.
We are continuously looking for new tools of vocational
development. Since 2005 we have been animating discussions among
NGOs and public administration about the development of the social
economy sector in Poland. We organise debates, fairs, conferences,
trainings related to social economy. We published several tens of
publications on this topic. We are also managing the biggest Polish
internet portal on social economy www.ekonomiaspoleczna.pl and are
in charge of the Standing Conference on the Social Economy (SKES)
secretariat.
