The report presents the regions of Linköping and Zemgale. The text discusses theories of the changing society. Further, the report describes the development from a welfare society to a workfare-oriented society challenging welfare systems and organisations. The target group of the project is defined as NEETMI. The target group is present in both regions (Zemgale app. 17 percent) and in Sweden (18 percent born outside Sweden and six percent are born in Sweden). Further, the report describes the characteristics of the target group as heterogeneous in both regions carrying mental ill health and mental illness. The report exemplifies different pro-grams of training and interventions and experiences made within the framework of professional organisations. The report presents a theoretical framework of human needs and satisfiers that might be used in the forthcoming process of the project. Finally, the report set forth a theoretical model of four platforms that contextualises and individualises the entrances to professional in-terventions. One conclusion made, that refer to both regions, is that training programs have to be tailor made to be successful.
