Kvinder skal involveres mere i europæisk politik
Getting women more involved in European politics
Det var grundholdningen blandt mødedeltagerne, da Parlamentets ligestillingsudvalg den 2. marts var vært for en offentlig høring om kvinders EU-engagement.
On Tuesday 2 March a panel of MEPs and experts analysed the links between women and the EU concluding that greater female participation in politics is essential, especially in view of the 2014 EP elections, but will not be easy to achieve.
Et flertal af europæiske kvinder erklærer sig "dårligt orienteret" om og "ikke interesseret" i europæisk politik.
The panel heard from researchers who had looked at why women were less represented.
Kvinderne har også en mere negativ indstilling til det europæiske samarbejde, end tilfældet er for mændene.
They noted that a significantly higher percentage of women consistently declared themselves less informed and less interested in the EU and in politics and had a less positive image of the Union.
Kvinder underrepræsenteret i Parlamentet
Just over one-third female candidates
Tal fra University of Exeter viser, at der blot var 35 % kvindelige kandidater til europaparlamentsvalget i 2009.
According to figures provided by Susan Balducci of the University of Exeter, in the 2009 European elections women made up 35% of candidates, 34% in the top 3rd of party lists (Greece and Denmark being the exception), 34% of MEPs elected, but got 19% of media coverage, falling to single figures in some countries.
Kun 34 % af de valgte MEP´er er kvinder, og kvinderne fik blot 19 % af den samlede mediedækning.
Hence the vicious circle that needs to be broken: reduced visibility of women in politics leads to reduced interest of women in politics and vice-versa.
Den onde cirkel skal brydes, da mindre synlighed fører til mindre interesse fra kvindernes side.
Social issues to boost female interest
Flere af mødedeltagerne opfordrede de politiske partier til at gøre en større indsats for at tiltrække kvindelige medlemmer.
Among the solutions is a greater female presence in politics which, could lead to greater female engagement in the issues.
Edite Estrela forslog, at man kiggede på muligheden for at indføre kvoteordninger for politikere.
Edite Estrela said a quota system would be one way to ensure greater female participation.
Fra alle sider var der opbakning til synspunktet om, at Europa-Parlamentet bør lægge større vægt på socialpolitiske emner, da socialpolitik statistisk set er det politikområde, der interesserer de kvindelige vælgere mest.
In the discussions the importance of working through political parties to try and get more women involved was stressed.
Høringen var arrangeret af græske Rodi Kratsa Tsagaropoulou (EPP), tyske Silvana Koch-Mehrin (ALDE) og portugisiske Edite Estrella (S&D).
In terms of policy, several MEPs said that the Parliament and the EU generally should put greater emphasis on "social" issues that seem to be of greater interest to women voters thus making the Union more relevant to women in order to increase their interest for a greater participation in the elections.

Parlamentet ønsker et europæisk asylsystem
Asylum study backs shared responsibility between EU countries
En kvinde fra Sandholmlejren viser sit asylansøger- ID ©BELGA Parlamentet opfordrede sidste år medlemsstaterne til at oprette en fælles bindende asylordning for at hjælpe de medlemsstater, hvis asylsystemer er under særligt stort pres.
An "Asylum seeker to Denmark"card in a refugee center in Sandholm, Denmark March 2007. ©Belga One of the crucial questions facing EU asylum policy is the extent to which countries share the demands of asylum seekers.
Men Rådet har indtil videre været tilbageholdende.
It also underlines the currently uneven distribution of asylum costs across Europe with countries like Malta, Spain and Italy shouldering the heaviest burden.
Den 22. februar offentliggjorde Parlamentets Generaldirektorat for Interne Politikker en undersøgelse med titlen "What system of burden-sharing between member states for the reception of asylum seekers?".
In a series of reports adopted last year as part of its first reading of the "asylum package" MEPs backed minimum standards for the reception of asylum seekers, a system to compare fingerprints, setting up an asylum support office and international protection.
Undersøgelsen forsøger at give et svar på, hvad der skal til for at skabe en mere retfærdig byrdefordeling mellem medlemsstaterne.
In Parliament's first reading in May last year, MEPs called for a binding mechanism to be set up before 2012.
EU27-landene modtog ca. 220.000 asylansøgninger (svarende til mindre end én asylansøger per 2.200 europæere).
This corresponds to less than one asylum seeker per 2,200 European citizens.
Undersøgelsen kommer med tre forslag til en bedre ansvarsfordeling på europæisk plan:
The study points out three options for responsibility sharing at European level.
• Øget samarbejde og harmonisering (med det formål at udligne omkostningerne pr. ansøger) • Økonomisk kompensation (f.eks. et fast beløb pr ansøger eller en fondsbaseret mekanisme) • Fælles indsats i forbindelse med transport af asylansøgere En bindende mekanisme Parlamentet mener, at medlemsstaterne skal udvise større solidaritet med de lande, der modtager hovedparten af asylansøgningerne.
These include greater cooperation and harmonisation (i.e. aiming to improve equalisation of costs per applicant), financial compensation such as a set amount per applicant or a fund-based mechanism.
De opfordrede EU til inden 2012 at oprette en bindende fælles asylordning.
It also backs the physical relocation of asylum seekers.
Dette punkt synes stadig at være en "varm kartoffel" i medlemsstaterne, og Rådet blokerer fortsat asylpakken.
"Bring this package to fruition"
Parlamentets Udvalg om Borgernes Rettigheder og Retlige og Indre Anliggender har gentagne gange beklaget den modvilje, som Rådet har udvist i forhold til ideen om at indføre et bindende asylsystem.
In October, the Civil Liberties Committee deplored the reluctance of the Council to introduce a binding mechanism in asylum.
"Denne sag handler om solidaritet, og "frivillig solidaritet" er virkelig en joke.
"This matter is about solidarity, and voluntary solidarity is a joke.
Nogle lande ønsker ganske enkelt ikke at hjælpe", siger Simon Busuttil (EPP, Malta).
Some countries do not want to help," Maltese MEP Simon Busuttil said at the time.

Bruxelles-korrespondenter om dækningen af EU-stoffet
European journalists on the challenges of covering the EU
Der uddeles priser inden for fire forskellige kategorier: Trykte medier, radio, TV og Internettet.
The European Parliament's annual Journalism prize is awarded in four categories: written press, radio, TV and the internet With over 1,200 journalists covering the European Union the Brussels press pack is rivalled in size only by its Washington counterpart.
Førstepræmien inden for hver kategori er 5.000 euro Den 15. januar lød startskuddet til Europa-Parlamentets Journalistpris 2010.
Frans Boogaard covers Brussels based EU news for Dutch newspaper "Algemeen Dagblad" and is also a member of the International Press Association (API).
Vi talte med nogle EU-korrespondenter, der alle har deres daglige gang i EU-institutionernes korridorer.
That is the painful experience that most of the 1200 correspondents accredited with the EU institutions feel."
Ann Cahill (korrespondent for den irske avis Examiner) fortæller, at arbejdet som EU-korrespondent er meget spændende, da man får mulighed for at følge og dække den komplicerede europæiske beslutningsproces fra start til slut.
The European correspondent for the "Irish Examiner" Ann Cahill told us, "it's a privileged job in many ways as you can chart the rise of ideas and follow their development through the power politics of government, business, civil society and the EU institutions."
Nikos Bellos (korrespondent for Cypres News Agency) mener, at den hårdeste del af arbejdet som Bruxelles-korrespondent består i at overholde de mange stramme deadlines.
Nikos Bellos, head of the Cyprus News Agency in Brussels, said, "the toughest part of our work as Brussels correspondents is covering the news on schedule while maintaining the necessary standards of accuracy and the reason its tough is that so many things happen at more or less the same time."
"Det er hårdt, da der sker utrolig mange ting samtidigt.
Domestic and EU politics - "two sides of same coin"
Det kan ofte føre til situationer, hvor man skal dække en begivenhed, uden selv at være fysisk til stede.
Many journalists find it tough trying to communicate what is going on in the EU in a way that means something to people in their country.
For Maria består den største udfordring i at identificere de vigtigste informationer i den enorme nyhedsstrøm.
"In my mind news is everything that can easily relate to the everyday life of people, not 'blue sky thinking' speeches and big plans or strategies," said Ms Franciosi.
"For mig handler nyheder om alt, der relaterer sig til menneskers hverdag...
"The voice of the people and their stories: this is what is really missing in Europe.
Uanset hvor godt man dækker institutionernes aktiviteter, er folk reelt kun interesseret i at vide, hvad EU's beslutninger betyder dem og deres liv."
No matter how well one can cover the activity of the institutions, people are only interested in knowing what the EU’s decision will mean for their lives".

Thijs Berman: Afghanistan har brug for EU's hjælp
Dutch Social Democrat Thijs Berman on Afghanistan
Thijs Berman, 3. marts 2010 Sidste års præsidentvalg i Afghanistan var præget af korruption og valgsvindel.
Social Democrat MEP Thijs Berman pictured in his office in Brussels, 3 March 2010 As the international community strives for "mission accomplished" in Afghanistan and defeat of the Taliban, we talk to Dutch Social Democrat Thijs Berman who in November was in Afghanistan to monitor elections and will return there soon.
Hvilken fase befinder Afghanistan sig i nu?
Where does Afghanistan stand now?
Jeg mener, at Afghanistan befinder sig i en udviklingsfase, hvor alt er åbent.
TB: I think we are in a phase in the development of Afghanistan where everything is open.
Men der er en række foruroligende tegn.
But there are worrying signs.
Præsident Karzai lovede at bekæmpe korruption og forbedre landets institutioner, men han har samtidig besluttet, at der ikke skal ændres på den måde, hvorpå medlemmerne af den uafhængige valgkommission udpeges.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai promised to tackle corruption, to improve the situation in his country, to improve the institutions.
Han fortrækker at gøre det selv!
Yet you see that the President has decided not to change the way the independent election commission is appointed: he will do it himself.
Han har også besluttet, at han selv vil udpege medlemmerne af valg-klagekommissionen.
He decided that he will appoint the members of the electoral complaints commission.
I stedet for at styrke kontrolmekanismerne svækker man dem.
Instead of strengthening checks and balances, strengthening counter power, these are weakened.
Det er meget bekymrende.
And that is extremely worrying.
Afghanistan har brug for institutioner, der er troværdige i befolknings øjne.
What Afghanistan needs is institutions that are credible in the eyes of its own population.
90 % af Afghanistans civilretlige tvister forlægges aldrig en formel dommer, men derimod en "Taliban- dommer", hvilket skyldes, at befolkningen ikke har tillid til de officielle dommere.
Ninety per cent of current civil disputes between citizens in Afghanistan do not appear before a formal judge, but before a Taliban judge, because people do not trust the official judge.
De anser dem for at være korrupte.
They think they are too corrupt.
Hvilken rolle kan Europa spille i Afghanistan?
Can the international community still hope that there will be a win-win situation in Afghanistan?
Vi er nødt til at sende flere undervisere til landet.
We need to send trainers over there.
I stedet for udelukkende at koncentrere indsatsen om det militære aspekt (som amerikanerne gør) bør vi fokusere langt mere på selve opbygningen af landet - i samarbejde med afghanerne.
I think that instead of concentrating on the military aspect, as the Americans do, we should concentrate much more on building this country - with the Afghans.
Europa har en enorm vigtig rolle at spille.
So there is a huge role for Europe to play.
Det har ikke bidraget til at forbedre den sikkerhedspolitiske situation!
It has not improved the situation.
Taliban kontrollerer to tredjedele af landet.
The Taliban are controlling two thirds of the country.
Det ville være en fejltagelse.
It would be a mistake.
Pentagon tror, at man kan løse problemerne ved at sende flere tropper.
The Pentagon thinks that you can solve problems by sending in more troops.
Vi skal skabe tillid i den afghanske befolkning.
What we do have to do is build trust among the Afghans.
De skal tro på deres egne ledere og deres eget politiske system.
But trust in their own leaders, in their own political system.
Og hvis det skal lykkes, skal korruptionen og opiumsproduktionen bekæmpes.
And you do that by tackling corruption and tackling, of course, the opium production.
Kan der skabes en bedre koordinering i samarbejdet mellem EU og USA?
Can co-ordination between the EU and the US be achieved?
Det er nødvendigt.
It is necessary.
Jeg havde en række samtaler med amerikanerne sidste mandag.
I had talks with the Americans last Monday.
Jeg talte blandt andet med den amerikanske NATO-ambassadør.
I saw the American Ambassador to NATO.
Jeg mener, at der er behov for et meget, meget tæt samarbejde, når det kommer til opbygning af institutioner, styrkelse af kommuner, udvikling af landdistrikter, lige rettigheder for mænd og kvinder og den generelle økonomiske udvikling.
I do think that we have to cooperate very, very closely in institution building and straightening local governments and economic development of Afghanistan, rural development of Afghanistan by getting chances to men and women.
Hvad forventer du af din kommende tur til Afghanistan?
So what do you expect from your upcoming visit to Afghanistan?

En oplevelse for livet
Erasmus: exchanging skills for life
180.000 Erasmus-studerende i det akademiske år 2007/2008 ©BELGA_Eureka EU´s uddannelsesprogram Eramus gør det hvert år muligt for mere end 180.000 unge at studere i udlandet.
Over one million students have benefitted from the Erasmus exchange programme ©Belga Every year over 180,000 students across Europe study in the Erasmus University exchange programme.
Det overordnede formål er at knytte de europæiske universetsuddannelser tættere sammen.
Students spend a semester or academic year at a foreign university to develop their language skills and for new experiences abroad.
Vi talte med en MEP og en staigiare, som begge har nydt godt af et Erasmus-ophold.
Here Scottish MEP Alyn Smith and a Lithuanian intern Eglė Draugelytė at the European Parliament talk about their experiences.
Et Erasmus-semester giver dig en fantastisk mulighed for at studere i udlandet, forbedre dine sprogkundskaber og møde andre studerende fra hele Europa.
A recent study by the European Commission which looked at the 2007-2008 academic year found that German students were the most enthusiastic Erasmus students.
27.000 Erasmus-undervisere fik mulighed for at arbejde ved et universitet i et andet EU-land
All three countries are also the biggest recipients of Erasmus students.
Den britiske MEP Alyn Smith (De Grønne/Den Europæiske Fri Alliance) var Erasmus-studerende i Tyskland i 1992.
Scottish Nationalist MEP Alyn Smith was an Erasmus student in Germany back in 1990.
Han tilbragte 12 måneder ved Ruprecht-Karls Universität i Heidelberg.
He spent the academic year at Ruprecht-Karls Universität in Heidelberg.
Litauiske Eglė Draugelytė var sidste år Erasmus-studerende ved universitet i Bordeaux i Frankrig.
As he explains "at 19 I learned a lot about living away from home and about how to be more independent".
I dag arbejder hun som praktikant i Europa-Parlamentet.
Mr Smith pointed out that the main "difficulty" was the German language.
Alyn Smith husker, hvordan han under sit ophold i Heidelberg ikke alene fik forbedret sine akademiske færdigheder, men også lærte en masse om at klare sig selv.
Now, as a MEP, he has started an information initiative to encourage more Scottish students to apply for an Erasmus semester.
Smith arbejdede en årrække for "Skotland Europa" - den skotske EU-repræsentation i Bruxelles - før han blev medlem af Europa-Parlamentet.
She applied for Erasmus last year and studied half a year in Bordeaux in France.
Han har for nyligt startet en informationskampagne, som skal tilskynde flere skotske studerende til at ansøge om et Erasmus-ophold.
She sees the Eramus semester as a very good opportunity to expand her personal skills in a multicultural environment, "I became a more communicative, tolerant and flexible person" she says of her experiences.
Eglė arbejder i dag som en praktikant i Europa-Parlamentet: "Det at man har fuldført et Erasmus-semester indikerer, at man er mere involveret og interesseret i EU-relaterede emner, end sine konkurrenter.
Eglė is hopeful of the effect Erasmus will have on her future job prospects: "Doing an Erasmus semester indicates that you are more involved and interested in European issues than your competitors.
Jeg tror, at mit semester i Bordeaux har hjulpet mig med at komme videre.
I believe that my semester in Bordeaux helped me to get where I am today.
Erasmus-semesteret vil altid se godt ud på mit CV, da det i ét ord forklarer, at jeg har udenlandsk universitetserfaring."
Erasmus will always look great on my CV, because that one word explains the whole experience of studying abroad. "
Anden udgave af Erasmus Mundus programmet - EU's program for studerende fra lande uden for EU - startede den 1. januar 2009, efter at Europa-Parlamentet den 21. oktober 2008 vedtog en aftale om programmet.
On October 21, 2008, the Parliament voted in favor of establishing the second phase of the Erasmus Mundus (2009-2013).
Programmet har et budget på 950 millioner euro for perioden 2007-2013.
Erasmus Mundus aims at promoting European higher education as a centre of excellence in the world.

Eva-Britt Svensson om kampen mod hustruvold
Violence against women: MEP says "You can build a new life"
Eva-Britt Svensson Parlamentet vedtog i sidste måned en betænkning, der fastslår, at der skal gøres en større indsats for at bekæmpe vold mod kvinder.
If I go home he will kill me The upcoming International Women's Day has thrown attention towards what can be done to help women who suffer domestic violence.
Formanden for Parlamentets ligestillingsudvalg, svenske Eva-Britt Svensson (GUE-NGL), ved hvad det handler om.
As leftwing Swedish MEP Eva-Britt Svensson knows only too well, the violence can often be perpetrated by partners in a relationship or marriage.
Hun var selv været et voldsoffer.
Here she talks about what can be done Europe wide to deal with this problem.
Hvad har EU og Europa-Parlamentet hidtil gjort indtil for at bekæmpe vold mod kvinder?
What has the European Union and the European Parliament done so far to eliminate violence against women?
Men vi er virkelig begyndt at informere om vold.
But we have really started to inform people about violence.
Vi har gennemført kampagner, og vi har vedtaget et særligt program med tilnavnet Daphne-programmet.
We have campaigned and we have a special programme called the Daphne programme to tackle violence.
Nogle af medlemsstaterne har meget gode love, når det kommer til bekæmpelse af vold.
Some of our member states have very good legislation concerning violence towards women.
Nu er tiden inde til at lovgive på EU-niveau.
Now is the time to have legislation at an EU level.
Hvis du skulle nævne tre ting, som man kan gøre for at hjælpe ofrene, hvad skulle det så være?
If you had to choose only three tools that EU should adopt in the future to help victims, what would they be?
Først og fremmest skal man hjælpe ofrene.
Firstly, support for the victims.
Der er nødt til at være en lovgivning, der sikrer, at kvinder i samtlige medlemsstater ved, at det er en forbrydelse.
You must have legislation so that women in all member states know that it (violence) is a crime.
Kvinderne skal også have adgang til støtte fra de sociale myndigheder, politiet og domstolene.
And you must have the possibility to get support from social authorities, from police and from judges.
Herudover har det spanske formandskab foreslået, at EU-landene opretter et fælles europæisk telefonnummer for krisehjælp - det er fornuftigt, da vil være nemmere for ofrene at huske nummeret og tilkalde hjælp, uanset, hvor de befinder sig.
Secondly, the Spanish EU presidency has proposed a common telephone number - this is good because if you have telephone number in your head and it is the same wherever you are, it could be easier for victims to call for help.
Hver fjerde europæiske kvinde hævder, at hun i løbet af sit liv er blevet udsat for fysisk vold.
Statistics say that every 4th or 5th women in her lifetime suffers physical violence and every 10th suffers sexual violence.
Du har personligt oplevet volden på egen krop.
You personally also have an experience with violence.
Hvad vil du sige til ofrene?
What would you say to the victims?
Jeg vil gerne sige til alle kvinder, der i dag lever i et voldeligt forhold: det er muligt at afslutte det dårlige forhold og føre dit eget liv!
I want to say to all women living today in violent relationship: it is possible to leave this bad relationship and make your own life.
Jeg ved, hvordan det er.
I know how it is like.
Han er den vigtigste person i dit liv, men han er en trussel.
He is the most important person in your life but he is your threat.
Er der ny EU-lovgivning på vej, som kan hjælpe ofrene på kort sigt?
Do you see in few months any EU legislation that could help the victims?
Ja, der er et forslag om en europæisk beskyttelsesorden.
Yes, we have a proposal concerning a European protection order.
Jeg kommer f.eks. fra Sverige.
For example I come from Sweden.
Jeg fik endda en "panik-knap", som jeg kunne trykke på, hvis han kom tæt på min lejlighed.
I even had a panic button that I could use if he came to my apartment.
