Gerlinde Schmidt

Gerlinde works as a project manager at Euclid Network (EN)- the European Network for Social Enterprises. At EN she is responsible for the implementation of some of EN’s EU-funded projects and co-leads the implementation of Social Tides powered by INCO with the support of Google.org, and leads EN’s work on inclusion and diversity. Another aspect of her work is to support EN members across Europe in accessing EU funding, through frequent webinars, a helpdesk and consortium-building activities.

Gerlinde is a co-founder of an impact-driven project herself and has a strong passion and background in (disability) inclusion, social work, human rights and project management. Besides her work at EN, she is also part of the Dutch Coalition on Disability and Development.
