The two year Enabling Social Action (ESA) programme is a partnership between the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and the Universities of Sheffield and Hull. It aims to support local authority commissioners to co-design, co-produce and co-deliver services with local people, service users, and civil society organisations, to embed social action in their routine working.
As part of the programme, 4 ESA partnerships will be supported over a 12 month period from January 2019 - January 2020. The partnerships will help local authorities and their partners to:
- Understand and enhance co-production.
- Examine the potential to grow and sustain a social action initiative.
- Design a suite of evidence to uncover the impact of the initiative.

The deadline is 11:59pm on 12 October 2018.
