He called for closer cooperation between the two institutions and stressed that they shared the same objective of linking regional, national and international organisations representing organised civil society, which have an important role to play in managing globalisation.
Kot predstavniki sindikatov, delodajalcev in delojemalcev ter organizirane civilne družbe ste v idealnem položaju, da pomagate Komisiji pri njenem uresničevanju novega pristopa delovanja na lokalni ravni.“ V mnenju EESO je poudarjena potreba po tesnejšem decentraliziranem sodelovanju med Komisijo in člani Odbora ter po večjem prizadevanju regionalne, nacionalne in mednarodne organizacije, ki predstavljajo organizirano civilno družbo – in imata pomembno vlogo pri obvladovanju globalizacije.
The Ambassador also presented the work and priorities of Ecosoc to the members of the Committee and called on the two bodies to work together and support each other in order to reach the UN’s millennium goals.
Članom Odbora je predstavil še prednostne naloge Ecosoc in jih pozval k skupnemu ukrepanju in medsebojni pomoči, da bi dosegli cilje Združenih narodov za novo tisočletje.
EESC President Anne-Marie Sigmund expressed her hope that this visit would be the beginning of further fruitful cooperation.
Predsednica Sigmund je izrazila upanje, da je ta obisk uvod v plodno sodelovanje.

Mr Kretschmer stated that: ‘Turkey must win the EU’s hearts and minds, and for that reason, Turkey must present a clear picture, particularly with regard to the political criteria for accession’.
Med razpravo o dialogu s civilno družbo je predstavnica finskega predsedstva in veleposlanica Finske v Ankari, ga.
During the discussion on dialogue with civil society, the Finnish Presidency representative, Ms Serenius, Finnish Ambassador in Ankara, outlined the Finnish Presidency’s priorities for Turkey’s accession to the EU.
Serenius, predstavila prednostne naloge finskega predsedovanja na področju pristopa Turčije k EU.
The meeting also touched on the facilitation of visa procedures for civil society representatives. This will be dealt with in detail at the next JCC meeting.
Ob tem se je sprožilo tudi vprašanje poenostavljanja postopkov za pridobitev vizumov za predstavnike civilne družbe, ki bo predmet poglobljene obravnave na naslednji seji SPO.
Progress with the negotiations for Turkey’s accession to the EU, the involvement of organised civil society in that process, trade union rights, the situation of women on the Turkish labour market and the application of the Lisbon strategy in Turkey, were all subjects discussed at the 21st meeting of the EU–Turkey Joint Consultative Committee (JCC) in Kayseri,Turkey, on 13 and 14 July 2006.
Napredek pri pogajanjih Turčije o pristopu k EU, vključevanje organizirane civilne družbe v ta proces, sindikalne pravice, položaj žensk na turškem trgu delovne sile in izvajanje lizbonske strategije v Turčiji so bile glavne teme, ki jih je na svoji 21. seji 13. in 14. julija 2006 v Kayseriju v Turčiji obravnaval skupni posvetovalni odbor EU-Turčija (SPO).
I have to admit that there is still a lot of work to do but there can be no doubt that entrepreneurship is a key competence for growth, employment and personal fulfilment.
Čeprav je potrebno še veliko dela, ni nikakršnih dvomov o tem, da je podjetništvo ključnega pomena za rast, zaposlovanje in samouresničevanje.
It is therefore perfectly in line with the Commission’s proposal for a new start for the Lisbon strategy, which focuses the EU’s efforts on two principal tasks: delivering stronger, lasting growth, and providing more and better jobs.
Podjetništvo je zato povsem v skladu s predlogom Komisije za nov začetek lizbonske strategije, s katerim Evropska unija svoja prizadevanja osredotoča na dve glavni nalogi: zagotavljanje večje, trajne rasti ter ustvarjanje številnejših in bolj kakovostnih delovnih mest.
The meeting was held one month after the opening and closing of the first chapter in the negotiations: ‘Science and research’.
Seja SPO EU-Turčija je potekala mesec dni po odprtju in zaprtju prvega poglavja pogajanj, namenjenega znanosti in raziskavam.
It was graced with the presence of a number of guests with important roles in the accession negotiations.
Na njej je sodelovalo več osebnosti, ki imajo pomembno vlogo v pristopnih pogajanjih.
The Minister of State and chief negotiator, Mr Babacan, stressed that the Turkish government needed the participation and support of civil society in the negotiation process.
Turški državni minister in glavni pogajalec, g.
Mr Kretschmer, the European Commission’s Head of Delegation in
Babacan, je poudaril, da turška vlada v okviru pogajalskega procesa potrebuje sodelovanje in podporo civilne družbe.
Finally, the new partnership for growth and jobs stresses the importance of promoting a more entrepreneurial culture and of creating a supportive environment for SMEs.
Predstavljena so bila tudi tri skupna poročila: o ženskah in zaposlovanju, o gospodarskem razvoju Turčije z vidika lizbonske strategije in o stanju na področju sindikalnih pravic v Turčiji.
Three joint reports were presented, concerning women and employment, economic development in Turkey in the context of the Lisbon strategy, and the situation of trade union rights in Turkey.
Nenazadnje novo partnerstvo za rast in delovna mesta poudarja pomen spodbujanja podjetniške kulture in ustvarjanje spodbudnega okolja za MSP.
Those present discussed and pooled their experience and best practice.
Evropski socialni model je ključni element evropske skupne identitete
model and debated whether and how it could have value within their own political and social context.
Druga pomembna vprašanja, ki so bila omenjena med razpravo, so bila kampanja ILO za „dostojno delo“, socialna razsežnost globalizacije, „pravična globalizacija“ in družbena odgovornost podjetij.
In the afternoon of the first day, work continued in smaller working groups, so that several important questions could be fleshed out in more detail.
Popoldne prvega dne se je delo nadaljevalo v manjših delovnih skupinah, ki so podrobneje obravnavale številna pomembna vprašanja.
The outcome of the working groups was then presented to the plenary session on Tuesday, 27 June.
Rezultati delovnih skupin so bili predstavljeni na plenarnem zasedanju v torek, 27. junija.
EESC President Anne-Marie Sigmund sketched an overview of the challenges facing the European social model.
„Socialna politika je ustvarjalen dejavnik“, je poudarila ga. Sigmund.
Under pressure from globalisation, new technologies or the ageing society, Europe needs to act carefully when reforming its social model.
Evropski socialni model je resnično eden izmed členov, ki povezuje Evropo, njegova kulturna razsežnost pa je temelj naše skupne evropske identitete.
‘Social policy is a productive factor,’ Ms Sigmund underlined.
Odbor je 26. in 27. junija 2006 priredil prvo skupno konferenco z Mednarodno organizacijo dela (ILO).
The European social model is indeed one of the elements holding Europe together and has a cultural dimension which underpins our common European identity.
Dvodnevni dogodek, ki se je osredotočal na evropski socialni model, predstavlja prvi korak na poti k izvajanju protokola o sodelovanju, ki sta ga organizaciji podpisali leta 2005.
One of the most important messages coming out of the working groups was the need for improved social dialogue with civil society, but differences of opinion arose on how to ensure the representativeness of the organisations involved.
Eno najpomembnejših sporočil delovnih skupin je bila potreba po izboljšanju socialnega dialoga s civilno družbo, vendar pa so se mnenja o tem, kako zagotoviti reprezentativnost udeleženih organizacij, razhajala.
Another issue raised was that of policy coherence in the European Union.
Obravnavano je bilo tudi vprašanje skladnosti politik v Evropski uniji.
One of the examples mentioned was the lack of social standards in the EU’s development policy.
Med omenjenimi primeri je bilo pomanjkanje socialnih standardov v razvojni politiki EU.
On 26 and 27 June 2006, the Committee organised its first joint conference with the International Labour Organisation (ILO). The two-day event focused on the ‘European social model’ and was the first step in the implementation of a cooperation protocol signed between the two organisations in 2005.
Kari Tapiola, izvršilni direktor ILO, je predstavil zgodovinski pregled prizadevanj ILO na področju svetovnih delovnih standardov, potem ko je evropski socialni model opisal, kot bi „slepec opisal slona“: počasna, težka, ampak prijazna in zanesljiva žival.
ILO Executive Director Kari Tapiola provided a historical overview of his organisation’s efforts on global labour standards, after having compared the effort to describe the European social model to‘a blind person describing an elephant’: a slow, heavy, but friendly and solid animal.
Na splošno je bila konferenca nekoliko preveč naravnana na doseganje soglasja, tako da bi bilo zelo koristno, če bi se konference udeležilo več bolj svobodomiselnih kritikov ali socialnih nevladnih organizacij. Vendar pa je EESO s to konferenco brez dvoma začel dragoceno razpravo o ključnih elementih evropske identitete.
Overall, the conference was rather too consensual and could have profited from the presence of more liberal critics or social NGOs.
Udeleženci so proučevali, kako vrednote, delovni standardi in praksa na področju socialne zaščite ali enakih možnosti prispevajo k naši „evropski identiteti“.
Nevertheless, it is clear that, with this conference, the EESC has initiated a valuable debate about the key elements of the European identity.
Rezultati razprav bodo upoštevani na dveletni konferenci Odbora o „evropski identiteti“ 18. in 19. septembra 2006.
‘One of the illusions we had,’said Mr Tapiola,‘was that our European social model could automatically be transferred all over the world’.
Predsednica EESO Anne-Marie Sigmund je na kratko predstavila izzive za evropski socialni model.
The outcome of the discussions will also serve as input for the Committee’s biennial conference on the ‘European identity’ on 18 and 19 September 2006.
Govorniki organizacij delodajalcev in delojemalcev z Japonske, iz Maroka, Ekvadorja in s Filipinov so predstavili svoja stališča glede evropskega socialnega modela in razpravljali o tem, ali in kakšno vrednost bi ta imel v okviru njihovih političnih in socialnih razmer.

Finski člani so 5. julija 2006 organizirali kulturni večer v EESO.
On 5 July 2006, the Finnish members hosted a cultural evening at the EESC headquarters.
Prigrizek, ki so ga pripravili priznani finski kuharski mojstri, je bil sprejet z velikim navdušenjem.
The buffet prepared by some of Finland’s famous chefs was a definite success, with guests given an opportunity to taste such traditional Finnish dishes as reindeer, salmon and caviar, as well as Finnish beers.
Gostje so lahko poskusili tradicionalne finske jedi (kot so jelen, losos in kaviar), pa tudi finska piva.
The exhibition of work by the celebrated photographer Ola Kolehmainen and the concert given by the Serpentti brass band attracted a good deal of interest.
Razstava znanega fotografa Olaja Kolehmainena in koncert skupine Puhallinyhtye Serpentti sta bila deležna velike pozornosti. Plesalca Mia Salo in Risto Ovaskainen sta predstavila tango rubio.

‘The EESC can boost its influence — even without any new arrangements for participatory democracy’

EESC membership is renewed every four years.
Mandat članov EESO traja štiri leta.
Next month, Committee members will meet for the first time in the 2006–10 term.
Naslednji mesec se bodo sestali prvič v mandatu 2006–2010.
Have you any advice to give the new Committee?
Kaj bi svetovali novemu Odboru?
On the occasion of the EESC’s biennial conference, which took place on 18 and 19 September, and the christening of the building which will in future bear his name, Jacques Delors, former European Commission President, gave an interview to the EESC press unit.
25. marca 2007 bomo praznovali petdeseto obletnico podpisa Rimske pogodbe o ustanovitvi Evropske skupnosti, ki jo je podpisalo šest držav (Belgija, Francija, Italija, Luksemburg, Nemčija
On 25 March 2007, we will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, which established a European Community of six countries (Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands).
Dveletna konferenca EESO, ki je letos potekala 18. in 19. septembra, in poimenovanje stavbe, ki bo odslej nosila njegovo ime, sta bili odlični priložnosti za pogovor z Jacquesom Delorsom, nekdanjim predsednikom Evropske komisije.
Today the European Community, renamed the European Union by the Maastricht Treaty in 1992, consists of 25 Member States and 475 million inhabitants.
Evropska skupnost, ki je bila z Maastrichtsko pogodbo leta 1992 preimenovana v Evropsko unijo, šteje danes 25 držav in 475 milijonov prebivalcev.
This is proof that those behind the Treaty of Rome achieved their objective of strengthening cooperation and solidarity between countries — two concepts which were fundamental to the future generations of a Europe that had lived through two terrible world wars.
Cilj pobudnikov Rimske pogodbe je tako dosežen: okrepila sta se sodelovanje in solidarnost med državami, dva temeljna koncepta za prihodnje generacije Evrope, ki so jo zaznamovale grozote dveh svetovnih vojn.

I would not dream of giving advice!
Ne bi si dovolil dajati nasvetov.
Securing broad recognition for organised civil society has been a long — and ultimately successful — process.
Po tem dolgem in uspešnem delu za priznanje organizirane civilne družbe si morajo vsi oblikovalci politik na evropski ravni prizadevati, da bo organizirana civilna družba v okviru Odbora predstavljena tako, da bo imela večjo vlogo.
European policymakers as a whole now have to consider how organised civil society is represented at the Committee so as to give it a wider audience.
Menim, da je to zelo pomembno in da zaradi opravljenega dela na tem področju vsakdo, ki pomisli na organizirano civilno družbo, pomisli na EESO. Ko sem dal pobudo za dialog Val Duchesse, sem ubral drugačno pot.
Don’t forget that, thanks to the work done here, the EESC is now strongly associated with organised civil society. I myself took a different tack when I initiated the Val Duchesse dialogue.
Vendar sem prepričan, da je vsakomur jasno, kako pomembno je omogočiti sodelovanje in pogajanja med glavnimi ekonomskimi in socialnimi partnerji, kot je običajno v državah članicah.
Yet I think it is generally understood that promoting cooperation and negotiation between the key economic and social partners — as happens in our various countries — is one thing, but the EESC’s role, which covers the whole range of European Union activity, is much broader.
Toda vloga EESO, ki zajema celotni spekter dejavnosti Evropske unije, je mnogo širša.
EESC Info: Under present circumstances, with the Constitution and its provisions on participatory democracy still in abeyance, how do you see the EESC’s role going forward?
EESO-Info: Kako vidite razvoj vloge EESO glede na trenutni položaj, ko vprašanje Pogodbe o Ustavi za Evropo in njenih določb o participativni demokraciji še vedno ni rešeno?
You advocate differentiation between Member States, which you feel can help make Europe more dynamic.
Ste zagovornik različnega obravnavanja držav članic, ker menite, da bo to pripomoglo k bolj dinamični Evropi.
Can you give us some examples of what you mean by this?
Lahko navedete nekaj primerov različnega obravnavanja?
However, we must remain extremely vigilant and continue to work towards a united Europe.
Toda ostati moramo izredno pazljivi in si še naprej prizadevati za združeno Evropo.
The rejection of the Constitution by the French and Dutch people in 2005, and the consequent reflection period, should be followed by resolute action at European level.
Potem, ko je prebivalstvo Francije in Nizozemske leta 2005 zavrnilo Pogodbo o Ustavi za Evropo, in po obdobju razmisleka, ki je tej zavrnitvi sledilo, je zdaj nastopil čas, ko je treba odločno ukrepati na evropski ravni.
Jacques Delors: The EESC can boost its influence — even before any new arrangements for participatory democracy are in place.
Jacques Delors: EESO lahko svoj vpliv poveča, še pred sprejetjem novih določb.
Everything depends, I think, on the other institutions, which must introduce clear procedures for consulting the EESC and the Committee of the Regions (CoR) in good time.
Menim, da je vse odvisno od drugih institucij, ki morajo pripraviti jasne postopke za pravočasno posvetovanje z EESO in OR. Po mojem mnenju je to nepogrešljiv predhodni pogoj.
The EESC also has a right of initiative, which it has drawn on to promote the idea of organised civil society and which it must continue to use in the future.
Poleg tega ima EESO pravico do pobude, ki jo je že izvajal pri krepitvi ideje o organizirani civilni družbi in jo mora še naprej izvajati.
Eventually, the European institutions will have to change to improve their decisionmaking and make it more effective, but the fact that this change has not happened yet must not put a brake on the EESC’s momentum and dynamism.
Evropske institucije se bodo prej ali slej morale spremeniti, da se izboljša sprejemanje odločitev in delovanje, toda dejstvo, da se ta sprememba še ni zgodila, ne sme ovirati zagona in dinamike EESO.
As I have already emphasised in many of my speeches, this is why the EESC must step up its efforts to reach citizens, and in particular dissatisfied citizens, through organised civil society. It should not just listen to its citizens, but also address the issues on European society and policy that are most important to them.
Kot sem že velikokrat poudarila v svojih govorih ob različnih priložnostih, mora EESO okrepiti prizadevanja za približevanje državljanom, zlasti tistim, ki so nezadovoljni, in jim s pomočjo organizirane civilne družbe ne le prisluhniti, ampak tudi obravnavati vse zanje pomembne vidike evropske politike in družbe.
The principle of differentiation is very simple.
Načelo diferenciranega obravnavanja je zelo preprosto.
Let’s start with just one example: looking back, would we now have the euro if we had had to wait for it to be accepted by the 15 EU Member States?
Želel bi navesti primer eura: če pogledamo v preteklost, ali bi danes imeli euro, če bi čakali, da ga bo sprejelo petnajst držav članic EU?
Only 11 — then 12 — wanted to press ahead.Yet, press ahead we did.
Najprej jih je bilo enajst, potem dvanajst.
That is what differentiation is all about.
Kljub temu smo uspeli in to je diferenciacija v pravem pomenu besede.
There are many other examples I could mention.
Navedem lahko še veliko drugih primerov.
Differentiation does not mean splitting Europe into a vanguard and the rest.
Diferenciacija ne pomeni razdelitve Evrope na vodilne in ostale.
It just means that some countries have scope to explore new avenues of joint action and cooperation, while others prefer — or are obliged — to wait.
Pomeni le, da imajo nekatere države možnost raziskati druga področja skupnega delovanja in sodelovanja, druge pa želijo ali morajo počakati.
Differentiation is thus the key — and here I am speaking to the experts — to reconciling enlargement with deeper integration.
Torej je diferenciacija – in to govorim strokovnjakom – ključnega pomena za uskladitev širitve in globlje integracije.
It is up to us all to prove that the EESC, which will also celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2007, is fully playing its role as ‘the bridge between Europe and its citizens’.
Dokazati moramo, da EESO, ki bo v letu 2007 prav tako praznoval petdesetletnico, v celoti opravlja vlogo „mostu med Evropo in državljani’“.
Like you, the EESC president backs a communication strategy for the European venture.
Predsednica EESO – tako kot vi – podpira strategijo komuniciranja za evropski projekt.
President of the European Economic and Social Committee 2004–2006
Predsednica Evropskega ekonomsko-socialnega odbora 2004–2006
No, because there are universal Union rules that apply to every country without exception.
Ne, kajti imamo splošna pravila, pravila Unije, ki veljajo za vse. Nobena država se jim ne more izogniti.
This keeps the ‘pact’ — the marriage bond — together, but, within that pact, some members may want to go further, while still sticking to the overall rules.
Tako je ohranjen pakt oziroma velika „zakonska zveza“, toda znotraj tega pakta želijo nekatere članice narediti korak naprej, pri tem pa še vedno upoštevati splošna pravila.
That is what will give Europe new momentum.
To daje Evropi nov zagon.
I think that the current debate on a ‘Living Europe’ is crucial. It will enable us to bring home to people what Europe actually means and to show each and every citizen that he or she has a role to play.
Menim, da je trenutna razprava o„življenju z Evropo“ zelo pomembna, saj nam bo omogočila boljše razumevanje pomena Evrope, s tem pa bomo državljanom lahko pokazali, da ima v njej prav vsak svojo vlogo.
