we risk a recessionary cycle of falling purchasing power and tax revenues, rising unemployment and ever-wider budget deficits’, stated Mr Barroso.
pali, nam grozi recesijska spirala s padajočo kupno močjo, vse manjšimi davčnimi dohodki, rastočo brezposelnostjo in rastočimi proračunskimi primanjkljaji,“ je izjavil Barroso.
‘We must turn crises into opportunities’.
„Krize moramo spremeniti v priložnosti.“

Med razpravo je EESO sprejel raziskovalno mnenje o lizbonski strategiji, ki ga je pripravila Susanna Florio in ki poudarja krepitev participativne demokracije in socialnega dialoga.
Ways to rebuild the European social market economy aer the crash of casino capitalism’.
„S tem mnenjem predstavljamo model upravljanja, ki poudarja odgovornost različnih vladnih in upravnih ravni,“ je povedala Susanna Florio.
During the debate, the EESC adopted the exploratory opinion on the Lisbon strategy by Susanna Florio which stressed the strengthening of participatory democracy and social dialogue. ‘rough this opinion, we present an idea of governance that underlines the responsibility of different government and administrative levels’,Ms Florio said.
Kot predsednik Odbora sem zelo ponosen na zavzetost, ki je porodila to pobudo, in prepričan sem, da bo ta razprava prinesla zanimive prispevke in predloge.
Mr Barroso underlined the aim of the plan:to stimulate short-term demand in order to avoid a deepen-ing of the recession and at the same time to initiate structural reform in Europe by concentrating on key sectors such as energy, innovation and green vehicle technologies.
Barroso je poudaril cilj pro-grama: spodbujanje kratkoročnega povpraševanja, da bi preprečili za -ostrovanje recesije, in sočasen začetek strukturnih reform v Evropi s težiščem na ključnih področjih, kot so energija, inovacije in tehnologije za okolju prijazna vozila.
‘If Europe implements decisively this recovery plan, we can get back on a path of sustainable growth and pay back short-term government borrowing.

Major debate on energy policy
Velika razprava o energetski politiki
We have worked hard in recent years to identify the measures necessary to update our European social market economy in order to face the challenges of the 21st century.
V zadnjih letih smo si močno prizadevali, da bi opredelili ukrepe za posodobitev našega evropskega socialnega tržnega gospodarstva, da bi se soočili z izzivi 21. stoletja.
But now we must follow a joint approach to act in the short term as well, otherwise we will not defeat the looming recession and create new jobs and sustain growth.
Zdaj pa moramo temu skupnemu pristopu slediti tudi kratkoročno, sicer ne bomo premagali grozeče recesije, ustvarjali novih delovnih mest in podpirali rasti.
Depending on the actual situation in the Member States, specific measures will be necessary to sustain income levels against the background of rising unemployment, housing problems, falling asset prices, and energy and food price increases.
Posebni ukrepi, ki bodo potrebni v državah članicah za ohranjanje ravni dohodka ob rastoči brezposelnosti, stanovanjskih težavah, padanju vrednosti premoženja ter podražitvah energije in hrane, bodo odvisni od stanja v posameznih državah.
EESC therefore believes that rigorous measures need to be adopted to secure the necessary financial resources for decommissioning while protecting workers and the public.

By the 2009 spring summit a first series of short but political national reports should be available for discussion.
Do spomladanskega zasedanja Sveta 2009 bi lahko imeli na voljo prvi niz kratkih, vendar političnih nacionalnih poročil za razpravo.
It will be very important to encourage Member States to consult intensively with organised civil society and other partner organisations on the measures proposed.
Pomembno bo države članice spodbuditi k izčrpnim posvetovanjem z organizirano civilno družbo in drugimi partnerskimi organizacijami o predlaganih ukrepih.
analysed the consequences for the public of difficult access to transport and energy, particularly at a time of crisis.
Mario Sepi,predsednik EESO dicah razvoja na področju prometa in energije ter razčlenila posledice težkega dostopa do prometa in do energije za državljane, ki so zlasti prizadeti v obdobju krize.
Maintaining the European social model depends partly on the transport–energy pair and its undoubted impact on the lives of individuals, businesses and employees, as well as mobility and employment in general.
Ohranitev evropskega socialnega modela je delno odvisna od dvojice ener-gija-promet, vsekakor pa ima vpliv na življenje posameznikov, podjetij, zaposlene ter na mobilnost in zaposlovanje na splošno.

Innovate!’ – Interview with Commissioner Ján Figel’
Inovativni!“ Pogovor s komisarjem Jánom Figlom
In your view, what main goals were reached?
Kateri veliki cilji so bili po vašem mnenju doseženi?
e Year aimed to raise awareness among civil society and policymakers of the importance of intercultural dialogue as a tool to help Europeans deal with the increased diversity in our societies.
Cilj evropskega leta medkulturnega dialoga je bil civilno družbo in nosilce političnega odločanja ozavestiti o pomenu medkulturnega dialoga kot instrumenta, ki naj Evropejcem pomaga pri srečevanju z vse večjo raznolikostjo v naših družbah.
But it is still a bit too early to measure the results.
Za ugotavljanje rezultatov pa je še vedno nekoliko prezgodaj.

However, I am pleased at the support we received from the Council of Ministers, which, under the Slovenian Presidency, underlined the importance of intercultural competences for everyone, and subsequently, under the French Presidency, emphasised the role that intercultural dialogue should play in the EU’s external relations.

For the EU to face the current crisis successfully, one of the longer-term objectives must be for Europe to be innovation-friendly. is will mean establishing closer links between schools,universities, the arts and businesses.
Kljub temu sem zadovoljen s podporo Sveta EU, ki je v času slovenskega predsedstva poudaril pomen medkulturnih kompetenc za vse, pozneje – pod francoskim predsedstvom – pa je poudaril, da bi moral medkulturni dialog igrati vlogo v zunanjih odnosih EU.
people throughout Europe.
Bloga bosta odvisna od vaših prispevkov in upamo, da jih bo čim več!
It is my hope and expectation that these two dozen personalities will serve as positive role models for any youngsters who are interested in pursuing a career in these domains.
V vsej EU je bilo pripravljenih tudi približno tisoč prireditev, projektov in dejavnosti, predvsem na lokalni in regionalni, a tudi na evropski ravni. To je zame dokaz, da je medkulturni dialog za ljudi zelo pomembno vprašanje in da je bil upravičeno v žarišču evropskega leta.
A more formal assessment of the achievements of the Year is due in 2009,when a full report will be submitted to the Council and European Parliament.
Bolj formalna ocena dosežkov tega evropskega leta bo na voljo leta 2009, ko bo Svetu in Evropskemu parlamentu predloženo celovito poročilo.
So, the main objective for the European Year of Creativity and Innovation is to involve all stakeholders in a public debate on how Europeans should change, if the EU is both to remain competitive on the global stage and become a socially cohesive society, united in its rich diversity. is will involve national and local governments, professional organisations, NGOs, business and companies — everyone who is interested in the success of the European project.
Glavni cilj evropskega leta ustvarjalnosti in inovativnosti je torej vključevati ustrezne akterje v javno razpravo o vprašanju, kako naj se Evropejci spremenijo, da bi EU po eni strani ostala konkurenčna na svetovni ravni, obenem pa postala trdno povezana družba, združena v svoji bogati raznolikosti. Za to bo potrebno vključevanje nacionalnih in lokalnih vlad, poklicnih združenj, nevladnih organizacij in podjetij – torej vseh, ki imajo interes, da evropski projekt uspe.
What results do you hope will come out of this seminar?
Kakšne rezultate si obetate od seminarja?
Jacques Genton, first EESC Secretary-General
Jacques Genton, prvi generalni sekretar EESO
Certainly, as we face this period of economic and financial turbulence, we must not forget the long-er-term cement that helps bind Europe’s communities of peoples and values.
Seveda. V sedanjem obdobju gospodarskih in finančnih pretresov ne smemo pozabiti, kaj dolgoročneje povezuje evropske skupnosti narodov in vrednot.
Education is this longterm cement; education unites.
To dolgoročno povezanost ustvarja izobraževanje.
It is very important to me that I meet local journalists, who are vital information multipliers and opinion formers at the grass-roots level in Europe.
27. novembra 2008 je v 90. letu starosti umrl prvi generalni sekretar Evropskega ekonom-sko-socialnega odbora.
So I am especially grateful to the EESC for organising this seminar, as it will be an excellent occasion to look back on the achievements of 2008, and to look forward to the 2009 European Year.
V svoji bogati in pestri karieri v državni in lokalni francoski politiki je bil dejaven zlasti kot poslanec in nato član senata (bil je predsednik senatnega odbora za zunanje zadeve) ter
I am keen to involve these communication experts in spreading our message to all corners of Europe.
Če bodo evropski izobraževalni sistemi pravični in učinkoviti, bodo pomagali odpravljati družbene neenakosti in vključevati skupine prebivalstva in državljane na družbenem obrobju, npr. ljudi s priseljenskim poreklom.
If Europe’s education systems are equitable and effective, they will help level out social disparities, and help integrate those communities and people that have tended to find themselves at the margins of society, such as those with a migrant background, for example.
Zame bo srečanje z lokalnimi novinarji zelo pomembno, ker so multiplikatorji informacij in oblikovalci mnenj v evropski bazi. Zato sem Evropskemu ekonom-sko-socialnemu odboru posebno hvaležen za pripravo tega seminarja, saj ponuja odlično priložnost za pogled nazaj, na uspehe leta 2008, in naprej, v evropsko leto 2009.
When we organise European Years, we are particularly interested in ensuring that the‘grass-roots’ level is as involved as possible.
Pri pripravah na evropska leta si posebej prizadevamo za to, da v čim večji meri vključimo bazo.
Such a bottom-up approach helps us achieve the awareness-raising objectives we have for our European Year.
Takšen pristop od spodaj navzgor nam pomaga doseči cilje evropskega leta na področju ozaveščanja javnosti.
Civil society organisations are vital partners for us, as they are oen directly involved in the issues we are dealing with, and are consequently very motivated stakeholders.
Organizacije civilne družbe so za nas pomembni partnerji, ker so pogosto povezane z vprašanji, s katerimi se ukvarjamo sami, in so zato zelo motivirani akterji.
We greatly value their contributions and look forward to working with them for the 2009 European Year.
Njihove prispevke zelo cenimo in veselimo se, da bomo z njimi sodelovali v okviru evropskega leta 2009.
And with more and better education, we can help unleash the potential that lies within every person, for the good of the individual concerned, as well as for society as a whole.
Z več in boljšimi možnostmi za izobraževanje lahko prispevamo k razvoju potenciala vsakega posameznika, kar ne koristi samo posamezniku, temveč celotni družbi.
On 27 November 2008 the European Economic and Social Committee’s first Secretary-General, Jacques Genton, passed away at the age of 90.
Moje sporočilo je, da je vsak človek za nekaj nadarjen. Odkrivati moramo naše talente, razvijati naše ustvarjalne sposobnosti in doseči, da bodo naše družbe bolj inovativne.
He had a rich and varied public career in national and local French politics, notably serving as a Deputy and then as a Senator (he was President of the Senate’s Foreign Affairs Committee) and as Mayor of Sancerre.
To bo prispevalo k izboljšanju družbenih in gospodarskih razmer v naših državah. Zato vse pozivam: „Bodite vizionarski, ustvarjalni in inovativni!“ ●
He also played a key role in the establishment of the European Economic Community and served as an expert in the newly formed Council of Ministers before being nominated in 1958 as the EESC’s first Secretary-General.
Imel je ključno vlogo pri ustanavljanju Evropske gospodarske skupnosti in kot strokovnjak sodeloval v novo ustanovljenem Svetu ministrov, nato pa je bil leta 1958 imenovan za prvega generalnega sekretarja EESO.
He served for no less than 13 years.
To delo je opravljal kar 13 let.
Like Emile Noël (first Secretary-General of the European Commission) and Christian Calmes (first Secretary General of the Council of Ministers),he was one of a select band of pioneering senior civil servants who created the European public administration and infused it with the strong sense of purpose that it has retained until this day. e 2 December meeting of the Bureau observed a minute’s silence in his memory.
Tako kot Emile Noël (prvi generalni sekretar Evropske komisije) in Christian Calmes (prvi generalni sekretar Sveta ministrov) je pripadal izbranemu krogu visokih uradnikov, ki so opravili pionirsko delo pri oblikovanju evropske javne uprave in ki so ji dali močan smisel, da doseže cilje, ki jih ima še danes. Na seji predsedstva 2. decembra so se člani z minuto molka poklonili njegovemu spominu.
A memorial service will be held early in 2009.
Spominska maša bo v začetku leta 2009.
With more education, we can achieve a more human and a more creative 21st century, and set our societies on a stable path to peace
Da bi to laže dosegli, sem vidne osebnosti povabil, naj v letu 2009 delujejo kot ambasadorji za ustvarjalnost in inovativnost. Te
It’s important that the Year brings its message to young
Z večjimi možnostmi izobraževanja lahko 21. stoletje oblikujemo tako, da bo bolj človeško, bolj ustvarjalno, in naše družbe trajno popeljemo na pot miru in blaginje, da zagotovimo, da bo izobraževanje dostopno vsem, pa tudi, da jih bo spremljalo vse življenje.

Solidarnost, medkulturni dialog, večkulturnost in medsebojno spoštovanje so glavne prednostne naloge novega predsednika Maria Sepija teh skupnosti.
Social inclusion, citizens’ rights and solidarity will be at the heart of the Committee’s work in the years ahead as President Sepi emphasised: ‘Cultural differences cannot be used as an excuse for side by side with individuals and communities of different origins, recruiting people from those communities. is would not be possible without learning to respect their cultures.’

A live concert by the famous multicultural ‘Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio,’ organised by the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in collaboration with the EESC and the Regione Lazio, concluded a day that focused on the issues of multiculturalism and European integration.
Dan, osredotočen na vprašanji večkulturnosti in evropskega povezovanja, se je zaključil s koncertom v živo znane večkulturne zasedbe Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio, ki ga je organiziral italijanski inštitut za kulturo (Istituto Italiano di Cultura) v sodelovanju z EESO in deželo Lacij.
Conducted by Mario Tronco, the concert was preceded by the award-winning documentary ‘L’Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio’,shot by the acclaimed Italian director Agostino Ferrente in 2006. e film tells the story of the orchestra’s creation and its musical odyssey.
Pred koncertom, ki ga je vodil Mario Tronco, je bil prikazan nagrajeni dokumentarec L’Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio priznanega italijanskega režiserja Agostina Ferrenteja iz leta 2006. Film pripoveduje zgodbo o ustanovitvi orkestra in njegovi glasbeni odiseji.
During the concert, the audience was caught up in the visceral energy of the group in a truly international and multicultural atmosphere.
Orkester, ki ga sestavljajo glasbeniki iz različnih kultur, tradicij in glasbenih smeri, je zabaval občinstvo z novo vrsto glasbe iz vsega sveta in mešanico različnih zvrsti.
Looking back at the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue, the EESC held a debate on 21 November 2008 on ‘e European way to integration: intercultural dialogue and mutual respect’. e main aim was to discuss the challenges of European integration.
V okviru iztekajočega se evropskega leta medkulturnega dialoga je EESO 21. novembra 2008 pripravil razpravo na temo evropsko povezovanje – medkulturni dialog in medsebojno spoštovanje. Glavni cilj je bil razpravljati o izzivih evropskega povezovanja.
A live concert by the famous multicultural ‘Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio’ concluded the day.
Dan se je zaključil s koncertom v živo znane večkulturne zasedbe Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio.
Anne-Marie Sigmund, the Committee’s rapporteur on the integration of the Roma, said ‘European identity is first and foremost a cultural identity, then a legal identity’. e relevance of knowing several languages and cultures was stressed by Marcel Courthiade, a Roma professor and lecturer in Romani language at the Oriental Languages Institute in Paris, who quoted the Roma proverb: ‘e more languages you know, the more homes you will have’.
Anne-Marie Sigmund, poročevalka mnenja Odbora o vključevanju Romov, je dejala, da „je evropska identiteta v prvi vrsti kulturna identiteta in šele nato pravna identiteta.“ Pomen poznavanja več jezikov in kultur je poudaril Marcel Courthiade, romski profesor in predavatelj romskega jezika na Inštitutu za orientalske jezike v Parizu, ki je citiral romski pregovor: „Več jezikov znaš, več domov imaš.“
During its December 2008 plenary session the Committee adopted a key opinion on the European aeronautics industry. ‘e Committee has issued this opinion because of the sector’s fundamental importance for European industry as a whole, in terms of production, exports, jobs and R & D investment’, said rapporteur Marius Opran. e playwright and musician Moni Ovadia, in a powerful and extraordinary speech, continued along the same lines, referring to the Romanian philosopher Emil Cioran, who said that ‘people live in a language,not in a nation’.Moni Ovadia also pointed to the current situation in Italy, stating that ‘we are experiencing a time of extreme racism and xenophobia.
Tudi dramatik in glasbenik Moni Ovaida je v prepričljivem in izjemnem govoru nadaljeval v tem tonu ter citiral romunskega filozofa Emila Ciorana, ki je dejal, da „ljudje živijo v jeziku, ne v narodu“. Moni Ovadia je opozoril tudi na trenutni položaj v Italiji in dejal, da „v tem času doživljamo skrajni rasizem in ksenofobijo. Proti tema pojavoma se moramo boriti, da ne postaneta nekaj običajnega v Evropi.
I have dedicated my life’s work to this aim’.
Temu cilju sem posvetil svoje življenjsko delo.“
e opinion offers numerous solutions and proposals, aimed at boosting the aeronautics industry. Both the Commission and the EU Member States need to support the aeronautics sector.
Mnenje ponuja več rešitev in predlogov, da bi pospešili razvoj letalske industrije, ki jo morata podpreti tako Komisija kot države članice.
A new framework for technological development is required, encouraging companies from various Member States to set and meet their industrial priorities together.
Potrebujemo nov okvir za razvoj tehnologije, ki bo podjetja iz različnih držav članic spodbujal k temu, da skupaj določijo in izpolnijo glavne cilje letalske industrije.
Other recommendations include a better coordination between the Commission and the European Defence Agency, and measures to enhance passenger safety and make air transport more environmentally friendly.
Predlagano je tudi boljše sodelovanje med Komisijo in Evropsko obrambno agencijo ter ukrepi za izboljšanje varnosti potnikov in okolju prijaznejši letalski promet.

He emphasised the practical and at the same time crucial problems that this industry is currently facing or may face in the near future, such as the increase in the cost of developing aircra, the distortions caused by currency fluctuations and increased competition.
Poudaril je glavne težave, s katerimi se ta sektor v praksi srečuje oziroma se bo srečeval v bližnji prihodnosti, kot so večji stroški razvoja letal, izkrivljanje konkurence zaradi valutnih nihanj in vse večja konkurenca.
Moderated by EESC Vice-Presi-dent Irini Pari, an open discussion between the speakers and the audience concurred on the need to promote the integration of different cultures and a real change in relations between minority and majority communities, specifically the integration of minorities and the improvement of their socioeconomic situation.
Govorniki in občinstvo so se v odprti razpravi, ki jo je vodila podpredsednica EESO Irini Pari, strinjali, da je treba spodbujati povezovanje različnih kultur in resnično spremembo v odnosih med manjšinskim in večinskim prebivalstvom, zlasti vključevanje manjšin in izboljšanje njihovega socio-ekonomskega položaja.
