Summary Findings
London hosts some of highest areas of poverty, deprivation and worklessness in England. In response, a whole range of initiatives has aimed to improve access to work, particularly among those experiencing the greatest risks of long-term disengagement and social exclusion. Often, however, some of these initiatives know little about what has already been tried and tested elsewhere in London.
To help fill this gap, 'Disadvantage, Disengagement and Discrimination - the 3DsLondon' project - has mapped and analysed learning and skills development initiatives that support members of disadvantaged groups move from worklessness (unemployment or economic inactivity) to employment.
Information has been gathered on initiatives targeting workless people from the following disadvantaged groups:
BME groups
refugees and asylum seekers
disabled people
16 - 19 year olds not in employment, education or training
older people 50+
lone parents
homeless people
travellers
ex-offenders
drug and alcohol misusers
people living in areas with high levels of deprivation
returners to the labour market
people made redundant
long term unemployed 12 months+
economic migrants
The 3DsLondon website summarises findings from a questionnaire survey with returns from 362 provider organisations currently relating to more than 500 projects that have supported 358,123 participants from disadvantaged groups.
The findings from the survey have been complemented by findings from qualitative research with providers, stakeholders and project participants and through good practice case studies. A Model of Critical Success factors highlights key aspects of the research findings.
