Nemški projekt "European CNC Network - Train for Europe" je prejel prvo nagrado v okviru Evropske mladinske nagrade Karla Velikega 2010, podeljene 11. maja v Aachnu.
"European CNC Network - Train for Europe", a German project that brought together 24 vocational schools to build a small-gauge locomotive and wagons, won first prize at the Charlemagne Youth Prize 2010 award event on 11 May in Aachen.
Evropska mladinska Karla Velikega se podeljuje projektom, ki spodbujajo skupen občutek evropske identitete in povezovanje med mladimi.
The Charlemagne Youth Prize is for projects that foster a shared sense of European identity and integration.
Nemčija - "Vlak za Evropo" ("Train for Europe")
Germany - "Train for Europe"
Šolsko partnerstvo "Vlak za Evropo" (vzpostavljeno v okviru podprograma Comenius), ki je bilo ustanovljeno novembra 2006 in koordinirano s strani poklicne šole Bad Kreuznach, je združilo več kot 1500 učencev iz 24 poklicnih šol, ki so po Airbusovem načelu zgradili lokomotivo in vagone.
First prize went to the "Train for Europe" project (Germany), a Comenius school partnership, created in November 2006 and co-ordinated by the Bad Kreuznach Vocational School, brought together over 1,500 trainees from 24 vocational schools to build a locomotive and wagons on the Airbus principle.
Izdelan vlak ima 90-milimetrski profil, v dolžino meri okrog 8 metrov in vozi na 12-metrskih krožnih tirnicah.
The train has a gauge of 90 mm, a total length of around 8 metres, and runs on a 12 m circular track.
Predsednik Jerzy Buzek je dodal, da je "ta projekt do potankosti upodobil sodobno Evropo - Evropo, slonečo na ljudeh, ki s skupnimi močmi premagujejo meje in rešujejo velike naloge".
This project "testifies to exactly the essence of the European idea: acting together, overcoming the limits of boundaries, the discovery of diversity and its potential", said EP President Jerzy Buzek .
Irska - "Tukaj si" ("You are here")
Ireland - "You are here"
"Tukaj si" (Irska) je knjižni projekt, na katerem je sodelovalo 14 mladih, ki so skupaj ustvarili "pantologijo" (pan + antologijo) o ljudeh, rojenih leta 1980 in kasneje, ki živijo in delajo na umetniških, intelektualnih ali aktivističnih projektih izven države, v kateri so bili rojeni.
Second prize went to "You are here" project (Ireland), a book project in which 14 young people produced a "panthology" (pan+ anthology) on people born in or after 1980 who live and work on artistic, intellectual or activist projects in a country they did not grow up in.
Začenši s padcem Berlinskega zidu knjiga išče odgovor na vprašanje, ali ti mladi pri svojem delovanju res izhajajo iz svobode in pluralizma, ki ju je prineslo leto 1989 in ju prenašajo v novo, širšo vseevropsko tradicijo.
Starting with the fall of the Berlin Wall, the book looks at whether these young people really are writing from a freedom and plurality born in 1989 back into a new, wider and pan-European tradition.
Hans-Gert Pöttering, evropski poslanec in nekdanji predsednik Evropskega parlamenta, je dejal: "Projekt 'Tukaj si' priča o navdušenju mladih nad padcem Berlinskega zidu in je poskus lokalizacije in določitve identitete mlade generacije v tej novi, mladi in nedeljeni Evropi."
This project "is testimony to young people's fascination with the fall of the Berlin Wall and is an attempt to localize and determine the identity of the young generation in this new, young and undivided Europe" said MEP and former EP President Hans-Gert Pöttering.
Bolgarija - "BEST tekmovanje inženirjev" ("BEST Engineering Competition BEC")
Bulgaria - "BEST Engineering Competition BEC"
Namen tekmovanja je bil razviti robota, ki z uporabo okolju prijaznih virov energije zbira in ločuje ostanke in odpadke.
"In universities and student organisations, we find outstanding examples of what Europe is able to do if it bundles its knowledge and pulls together.
Nagrade in izbirni postopek
Prizes and selection procedure
Nacionalne žirije v sestavi dveh poslancev Evropskega parlamenta in predstavnika mladinske organizacije so marca izmed prispelih projektov izbrale nacionalnega zmagovalca.
National juries, each consisting of at least two MEPs and one representative of a youth organisation, selected a national winner from each of the 27 EU Member States in March 2010.
Aprila je evropska žirija, ki so jo sestavljali trije poslanci Evropskega parlamenta, predsednik Evropskega parlamenta Jerzy Buzek in štirje predstavniki Fundacije za mednarodno nagrado Karla Velikega, izmed 27 nacionalnih zmagovalnih projektov izbrala končne tri zmagovalce tekmovanje.
In April, the European jury, consisting of three MEPs, EP President Jerzy Buzek, and four representatives of the Foundation of the International Charlemagne Prize, selected the three winners from the 27 projects.
Predstavniki vseh 27 projektov so bili povabljeni na slavnostno podelitev nagrad v Aachnu.

Vedno na tekočem.
They presented their draft report on the ways out of the current crisis.
Evropski parlament se je sicer posvetil še brezposelnosti med mladimi in ukrepom za boj proti gospodarski krizi v območju evra.
The week also saw calls for more coordination of organ transplants and donation across Europe and initiatives to tackle youth unemployment.
Okrepiti gospodarsko upravljanje.
Finally the "Made in" logo should be compulsory say MEPs.
Ob tem so poslanci opozarjali predvsem na nujnost reform pokojninskega in zdravstvenega sistema, reformo trga dela in tesnejše usklajevanje gospodarskih politik v EU.
Longer-term structural reform of pensions, health systems and labour markets and closer coordination of economic policies were some of the solutions put forward.
Velik pomen so pripisali tudi spoštovanju pakta o stabilnosti in rasti, ki omejuje višino javnega dolga in proračunskih primanjkljajev držav z evrom.
The debate came against the backdrop of the economic and financial crisis.
Varnejše in hitrejše darovanje organov.
Safer and quicker organ donations
Ti naj bi skrajšali čakalne dobe ter naredili postopke darovanja, presaditev in izmenjave organov med članicami EU bolj učinkovite.
On Wednesday MEPs backed common quality and safety standards that would facilitate organ donation, transplantation and exchanges among EU countries.
Dnevno zato, ker niso dobili potrebnih organov, v EU umre 12 pacientov, na njih pa čaka 60,000 bolnikov.
About 60,000 patients are now on waiting lists in the Union - and every day 12 people die while on a list.
Evropski urad za podporo azilu in begunci.
European Asylum Support Office set up
Poslanci so glasovali za ustanovitev Evropskega urada za podporo azilu, ki bo imel sedež v Valletti na Malti, državam EU pa bo nudil strokovno pomoč pri vprašanjih azila.
A European Asylum Support Office to enable Europe to deal with the increasing numbers of refugees heading into the continent was given a green light.
Parlament sicer tudi predlaga, da bi tiste države EU, ki se odločijo sprejeti begunce iz drugih članic, na osebo v prvem letu dobile 6000 evrov, v drugem 5000 evrov in 4000 evrov kasneje.
In addition, in a bid to encourage the resettlement of refugees there is also a plan for countries to receive €6,000 per person for the first year, €5,000 in the second year and €4,000 thereafter.
Med predlaganimi ukrepi so enotna izplačila, preprostejša pravila za elektronsko identifikacijo živali in celo posebna telefonska številka za kmete v vseh državah EU.
In the run up to reform of Europe's common farm policy in 2013, MEPs voted to make farmers' lives easier by creating a single payment system, simplifying rules on electronic identification of animals and creating a helpdesk phone line for farmers in each EU Member State.
Strategija za mlade.
Steps to tackle Europe's unemployed young
Poslanci so v času, ko brezposelnost med mladimi dosega dvakratnik tiste med celotnim prebivalstvom, obravnavali strategijo EU za mlade za naslednjih 10 let.
With unemployment among young people now standing at double the rate for the overall working population, MEPs adopted a report focusing on the development of a European Youth Strategy for the next 10 years.
Ob tem so izpostavili predvsem nujnost bolj učinkovitega povezovanja med izobraževalnimi institucijami in trgom dela.
The emphasis will be on linking higher education with the labour market more effectively.
Vsa oblačila z oznako "Made in".
"Made in" labels should be compulsory, say MEPs
Edino tako, da so vsa oblačila obvezno opremljena z oznako "Made in" (prevod: narejeno v), je mogoče zagotoviti, da bodo potrošniki vedeli, da kupujejo oblačila narejena v Evropski uniji in ne morda kje drugje.
The only way to ensure that consumers are not deceived by labels implying clothes are made in the EU when they are not is to make "made in" labels mandatory, MEPs decided on Tuesday.
Podobne kazni za voznike tovornjakov po vsej EU.
The "made in" label is currently voluntary in the EU.
Danes npr. kazen za prekoračitev dovoljenega dnevnega časa vožnje za dve uri znaša 4600 evrov v Španiji in 400 evrov Grčiji.
Fines for exceeding the daily driving time by more than two hours are currently 10 times higher in Spain (€4,600) than in Greece (€400).
Pomoč kmetom v najbolj oddaljenih regijah EU.
Farm aid for Europe's remote regions
Kanarski in Azorski otoki ter otoka Reunion in Madeira si lahko obetajo pomoč v času gospodarske krize, ki je znatno prizadela tamkajšnje kmete.
Parliament backed measures aimed at helping Europe's remote regions in times of economic distress.
Tako so odločili poslanci v prvem glasovanju v skladu s tistimi določili Lizbonske pogodbe, ki jim dajejo pravico do soodločanja v zadevah kmetijstva.
The Spanish Canaries, Portugal's Madeira and Açores are affected by this particular measure.
Pristop EU h Konvenciji človekovih pravic in temeljnih svoboščin.
Better relations with Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia
Lizbonska pogodba EU nalaga, da pristopi k omenjeni konvenciji, tako da bodo lahko državljani EU proti evropskim institucijam vložili tožbo pred Evropskim sodiščem za človekove pravice.
MEPs backed a resolution reaffirming the need for the EU to develop a strategy for the South Caucasus.
Armenije, Azerbajdžana in Gruzije.
EU accession to Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, International Criminal Court (Rome Statute)
Gre za strateško pomembno regijo, ki jo obkrožajo Rusija, Iran in Turčija.
The European Union is required by the Lisbon Treaty to join the European Convention on Human Rights, thus allowing citizens to sue the EU and its institutions for the violation of human rights, at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
Nemiri na Tajskem.
The EP adopted a report on the subject.
Evropski poslanci so obsodili dejstvo, da je tajska vojska v posredovanju proti demonstrantom v Bangkoku uporabila pravo strelivo.
Thailand in spotlight in Thursday's human rights debate
Pozvali so vse vpletene strani, naj začno pogajanja o rešitvi krize in se zavzeli za ponovno vzpostavitev svobode medijev.
MEPs condemned the fact that real bullets were used against the red shirt protesters in Thailand and called for the restoration of media freedoms and urged all parties to engage in a constructive dialogue and seek reconciliation.
Predsednik Parlamenta Jerzy Buzek je izrazil sožalje svojcem žrtev, med njimi tudi svojcem italijanskega novinarja Fabia Polenghija.
President Jerzy Buzek sent his condolences to the families of the victims and expressed his sorrow at the death of the Italian journalist Fabio Polenghi.

Začetek majskega zasedanja v Strasbourgu
Opening of the Strasbourg session: EP celebrates IDAHO
Predsednik Evropskega parlamenta je ob začetku zasedanja v Strasbourgu spomnil kolege, da je 17. maj mednarodni dan boja proti homofobiji - IDAHO.
At the start of this week's Strasbourg session, EP President Jerzy Buzek announced that, as every year, the EU was celebrating 17 May as International Day against Homophobia (IDAHO).
V nagovoru je omenil še 60. obletnico Schumanove deklaracije in podelitev nagrad Karla Velikega.
This year's Europe Day and the Charlemagne Prizes were among other topics mentioned by Mr Buzek, who also congratulated the new UK and Hungarian governments on taking office.
Poslanci so potrdili tudi več sprememb dnevnega reda.
He welcomed a request to send condolences to families of soldiers killed in Afghanistan.
"Evropska unija letos že šestič praznuje mednarodni dan proti homofobiji," je dejal Jerzy Buzek in dodal, da se Evropska unija tudi 20 let potem, ko je Svetovna zdravstvena organizacija homoseksualnost črtala s seznama bolezni, še vedno bori proti vsem oblikam diskriminacije, vključno s , ta obveznost pa vključena tudi v njene pravne instrumente, med drugim v Lizbonsko pogodbe.
"This is the sixth time the EU has celebrated International Day against Homophobia", said Mr Buzek in his opening words, stressing that the EU was opposed to all forms of discrimination, under its Treaty and its Charter on Fundamental Rights.
Glede 60. obletnice Schumanove deklaracije, ki je temelj evropskega povezovanja, je predsednik poslancem povedal, da se je dnevov odprtih vrat parlamentarnih stavb v Bruslju in Strasbourgu 8. in 9. maja udeležilo več kot 38 tisoč obiskovalcev.
Last week had seen the 60th anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, now celebrated as Europe Day, and Parliament had held its usual Open Days on 8 and 9 May, with over 30,000 citizens visiting its premises in Strasbourg and Brussels.
Glavno nagrado Karla Velikega pa je dva dni kasneje prejel poljski premier Donald Tusk.
The main Charlemagne Prize was awarded two days later to Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
Na koncu je predsednik še čestital prevzem poslov novima vladama na Madžarskem in v Veliki Britaniji ter v imenu celotnega Parlamenta izrazil sožalje družinam dveh italijanskih vojakov, ki sta bila v ponedeljek ubita v Afganistanu.
Lastly, in the wake of the deaths of two Italian soldiers in Afghanistan this morning, the President warmly endorsed requests by Italian and British MEPs for condolences to be sent to their families and those of all other troops who had died while serving under the NATO mission in that country.
Spremembe dnevnega reda
Changes to the agenda: vote on working time directive postponed

The House voted to postpone until June the debate and vote on the Bauer report on the working time of lorry drivers.
Razprava o primeru aretacije novinarja Ernesta Vardanjana v Pridnestrju, predvidena za četrtek, je prestavljena.
The request to postpone the vote, on behalf of the EPP group, was approved by 158 votes to 137, with 7 abstentions.
Namesto tgea bodo poslanci razpravljali o razmerah na Tajskem.
MEPs decided to add to Wednesday's agenda a vote on a proposal to grant the budget discharge to the Council, although the motion for a resolution containing comments on the decision will only be put to the vote in June.
Parlament bo o razrešnici proračuna Sveta EU za leto 2008, ki je bila prestavljena z zasedanja v Bruslju, glasoval v sredo.
Thursday's urgent debate on the arrest of journalist Ernest Vardanyan in Transnistria will be replaced by one on the situation in Thailand.
Enaka pravica do porodniškega dopusta tudi za partnerice samozaposlenih delavcev
Wives of self-employed should have similar maternity leave rights to employees
Države članice EU bi morale po mnenju Parlamenta samozaposlenim ženskam in ženam oziroma partnerkam samozaposlenih delavcev zagotavljale pravico do najmanj 14 tednov porodniškega dopusta.
EU Member States should grant standard social protection, including at least 14 weeks' maternity leave allowance, for self-employed women and for wives or life partners of self-employed workers, says Parliament in a binding proposal to update an EU directive.
Dopolnila k direktivi, ki so jih poslanci sprejeli v torek, tudi predvidevajo, da bi države same določile, ali naj bo plačevanje socialnih prispevkov za samozaposlene ženske obvezno ali prostovoljno.
Compromise amendments agreed with Council say it should be up to Member States to decide whether paying for membership of social insurance schemes (covering maternity leave, sickness, invalidity and old age) must be mandatory for self-employed women or whether they can access this system voluntarily.
Evropska unija posodablja sedaj veljavno skupno socialno zakonodajo tako, da bi bile osnovne socialne pravice zagotovljene tudi samozaposlenim ženskam in partnerkam samozaposlenih delavcev.
The EU is to update an existing law to give standard social protection rights to self-employed workers and the spouses or life partners of self-employed workers.
Partnerke samozaposlenim delavcem v večini primerov pomagajo pri opravljanju njihovih dejavnosti, predvsem v kmetijstvu in malih podjetjih, zato bi morale imeti tudi možnost, da vplačujejo v socialne sheme.
Self-employed workers, and self-employed workers' assisting spouses could either be given the opportunity to pay to join a social coverage scheme or could be forced to do so, as each Member State chooses, stress MEPs in a sensitive compromise amendment negotiated with the Council at second reading.
Svet naj bi svoje skupno stališče, ki bo upoštevalo v torek potrjena dopolnila, sprejemal 7. junija.
The Council is set to adopt these amendments on 24 June.

Države članice Evropske unije, ki bodo prostovoljno sprejele begunce iz tretjih držav, bi lahko dobile iz evropskega proračuna do 6000 evrov na osebo.
EU Member States that volunteer to welcome third-country refugees could receive up to €6,000 per resettled person under a draft EU law amended by Parliament on Tuesday.
Parlament je poročilo, ki ga je pripravil Rui TAVARES (GUE/NGL, PT), v torek potrdil s 512 glasovi za, 81 proti in 7 vzdržanimi glasovi.
Parliament adopted the report by Rui Tavares (GUE/NGL, PT) by 512 votes to 81, with 7 abstentions.

Lastly, the European Refugee Fund has been amended, in agreement with the Council, to ensure that it is adequately funded.
O njem bo Parlament glasoval v sredo.

Oznake "Izdelano v..." oziroma "Made in..." bi morale po mnenju Parlamenta v prihodnosti postale sestavni del vseh oblačil za prodajo na evropskem trgu.
Country of origin labels should become compulsory for clothes sold in Europe so that consumers are not misled by labels suggesting they were made in an EU Member State, said the European Parliament on Tuesday when it approved an update of the EU clothes labelling scheme.
