ELIA GROUP 2011 SOCIAL REPORT

75

The 2011 campaign revolved around two main activities: preparing tomorrow’s grids for the challenges posed by renewable energy, and creating a European electricity market. The campaign was cited as an example by the European Commission.

Elia Fund: wonder and discovery for all Since it was established, Elia has ensured that its mission to promote security of supply and the electricity market has been reflected on the social front, by creating the Elia Fund in cooperation with specialists from the King Baudouin Foundation. The Foundation – an ideal partner for such a project – independently and transparently manages the Fund in keeping with the company’s values. The Elia Fund is aimed people with disabilities in the broad sense of the term (people with a mental, physical or sensory disability, older people, families with young children, and so on) and supports projects that offer these individuals transparent and nondiscriminatory access to tourist, cultural and sporting facilities, in the same way as everybody else. The Fund, which has an annual budget of some €250,000, places an emphasis on ‘wonder and discovery’.

In 2011, the panel of independent experts selected 22 projects which focused strongly on the integration of disabled people in as broad a context as possible.
