Dear Colleagues:  

The Community of Practice (COP) on Partnership in the ESF is not the only COP financed by the European Commission. There are also communities on:

• Quality programme management
• Gender mainstreaming
• Innovation
• Transationality
• Evaluation
• Sound planning

Most of these COPs will also have website. When details become available, the links to these sites will be listed on the COP partnership site (see links page).
