Abstract (may include machine translation)

The present methodological and data infrastructure report aims at providing a proposal for the inclusion of additional vulnerable group modules of the Integrated Poverty and Living Conditions Indicator System (IPOLIS). The concept of IPOLIS was worked out within the frame of the InGRID project, while the concept of its extension towards additional vulnerable groups (disabled people, migrants, the Roma and institutionalised people) falls under the InGRID-2 project. In its present status, IPOLIS contains children, young people and older people. In the next phase, we aim to extend it to include disabled people and migrants (including people with migration background, too), and the Roma and institu-tionalised people in the longer run. InGRID is a network of distributed, but integrating European research infrastructures. InGRID research infrastructures serve the social sciences community that wants to make an evidence-based contribution to a European policy strategy of inclusive growth. This research community focuses on social in/exclusion, vulnerability-at-work and related social and labour market policies from a European comparative perspective. For the period 2017-2021, the infrastructure has received funding for a 4-year project by the European H2020-programme: the InGRID-2 ‘Integrating Research Infrastructure for European expertise on Inclusive Growth from data to policy’ project.Within InGRID-2, joint research is organised with the aim to integrate, harmonise and optimise existing tools and methods within the different research domains and to create new tools to fill existing data gaps. A better measurement and understanding of vulnerable groups and related state policies are expected research impacts.Research in the field of poverty and living conditions, among others, will contain the extension of IPOLIS and EUROMOD, data on welfare services, demographic factors and poverty indicators.
