Future of Cohesion Policy – the debate gathers pace
Prihodnost kohezijske politike – razprava se nadaljuje
Since 74% of the EU’s population live in cities, understanding what is happening environmentally, socially and economically in urban areas is vital to policy makers at all levels.
Ker 74 odstotkov prebivalstva v EU živi v mestih, je razumevanje tega, kar se v okoljskem, socialnem in gospodarskem smislu dogaja v urbanih področjih, ključno za oblikovalce politik na vseh ravneh.
Ambitious consultation process furthers Baltic Sea Strategy – Stockholm and Kaunas conferences
Ambiciozni posvetovalni postopek podpira strategijo EU za regijo Baltskega morja – stockholmska in kaunaška konferenca
Preparatory work on the EU’s first Baltic Sea Strategy continued as extensive consultations took place at a stakeholder conference held in Stockholm, Sweden, 30 September.
Pripravljalna dela v zvezi s prvo strategijo EU za regijo Baltskega morja se po obsežnih posvetovanjih, ki so 30. septembra potekala na konferenci interesnih skupin v Stockholmu, nadaljujejo.
There are wide dierences in the economic development between the region’s EU Member States.
V gospodarskem razvoju držav članic EU iz te regije so velike razlike.
The area is also facing other major challenges like demographic change and marine pollution.
Območje se srečuje tudi z drugimi velikimi izzivi, kot so demografske spremembe in onesnaževanje morja.
Part of an overall picture of round table discussions, open seminars, targeted meetings and stakeholder conferences, the Stockholm conference provided a “valuable opportunity to listen to the opinions and views of those who know the Baltic Sea region from within”.
Stockholmska konferenca je kot del celote okroglih miz, odprtih seminarjev, ciljno naravnanih sestankov in konferenc interesnih skupin dala „dragoceno priložnost slišati mnenja in poglede tistih, ki od znotraj poznajo regijo Baltskega morja“.
The conference set out to answer the following questions:
Konferenca si je zastavila cilj odgovoriti na naslednja vprašanja:
The Directorate-General for Regional Policy is leading the work on developing a strategy that takes into account the region’s unique characteristics: the number of countries that surround it and their interconnecting economies, the disparity of their development and the environmental fragility of the Baltic’s shallow, brackish waters.
Generalni direktorat za regionalno politiko vodi razvoj strategije, ki upošteva edinstvene značilnosti regije: število držav, ki jo obkrožajo, in njihovo medsebojno povezano gospodarstvo, nesorazmerje med njihovim razvojem ter okoljska krhkost plitvih, manj slanih baltskih voda.
The EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region will be presented to the European Council in June 2009 and will build on four objectives, to make the region secure and safe, environmentally sustainable, prosperous, accessible and attractive.
Strategija EU za regijo Baltskega morja bo Evropskemu svetu predstavljena junija 2009, slonela pa bo na štirih ciljih, s katerimi želi narediti regijo zavarovano in varno, okoljsko trajnostno naravnano, uspešno, dostopno in privlačno.
The adoption of the strategy is set to be one of the Swedish EU Presidency’s main priorities during the second half of 2009.
Sprejetje te strategije je določeno kot ena prednostnih nalog švedskega predsedovanja EU v drugi polovici leta 2009.
•If a new organisational body is needed to run the conference, what type would be appropriate?•If funding is to be independently invested by partners for a shared outcome (aligned funding), how can that be implemented, reviewed and monitored?•What is holding back better coordination and how can this be improved?•If implementing the Community’s rules and laws (‘acquis’) is an issue, how can this be improved?•Who are the key people and organisations involved?•How can flagship projects be monitored?
•Če bo za vodenje konference potreben nov organizacijski organ, kakšen organ bi bil primeren?•Če bodo partnerji neodvisno vlagali za namene skupnega cilja (usklajeno financiranje), kako se bo to lahko izvajalo, pregledovalo in spremljalo?•Kaj zadržuje boljše usklajevanje in kako lahko to izboljšamo?•Če je izvajanje pravil in zakonov Skupnosti (‚acquis’) problem, kako lahko to izboljšamo?•Kdo so ključni ljudje in organizacije, ki so vključeni?•Kako se lahko spremljajo vodilni projekti?
Several convergence, competitiveness and cooperation programmes are being co-nanced from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in the Baltic Sea Region in the period 2007-13.
Kar nekaj konvergenčnih programov, programov za konkurenčnost in programov sodelovanja se financira iz Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj (ESRR) v regiji Baltskega morja v obdobju 2007–13.
The eight EU countries bordering the Baltic Sea along with parts of the Russian Federation, came together at the annual Baltic Sea States Subregional Cooperation (BSSSC) conference, held in Kaunas, Lithuania, 18-19 September.
Osem držav iz EU, ki skupaj z deli Ruske federacije mejijo na Baltsko morje, se je zbralo na letni konferenci za podregijsko sodelovanje držav Baltskega morja (BSSSC), ki je potekala v Kaunasu v Litvi, 18. in 19. septembra.
The primary focus of the event, called “How to make the Baltic Sea region an accessible and attractive place”, was on promoting balanced development, an issue that has become even more pressing since the 2004 enlargement.
Temeljno žarišče dogodka „Kako narediti regijo Baltskega morja dostopno in privlačno“ je bilo spodbujanje uravnoteženega razvoja, to pa je problem, ki je od širitve leta 2004 postal še bolj pereč.

Turning territorial diversity into strength – Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion adopted
Preoblikovanje ozemeljske raznolikosti v prednost – sprejeta Zelena knjiga o teritorialni koheziji
A union of territories each boasting its own cultural traditions, natural resources, infrastructure, skills base, languages – the list goes on – the EU’s diversity is both a challenge and an opportunity.
Raznolikost Evropske unije kot zveze ozemelj, med katerimi se vsako ponaša s svojimi kulturnimi tradicijami, naravnimi viri, infrastrukturo, zakladnico znanja, jeziki – in še bi lahko naštevali –, je hkrati izziv in priložnost.
The Commission’s new Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion, adopted 6 October, argues this territorial diversity is a vital asset, contributing to the sustainable development of the EU as a whole.
Komisija v novi zeleni knjigi o teritorialni koheziji, sprejeti 6. oktobra, trdi, da ta teritorialna raznolikost pomembno prispeva k trajnostnemu razvoju EU kot celote.
Representing more than 190 million people from coastal regions around Europe, 160 regions met at the CPMR general assembly to discuss a range of subjects including: energy and climate issues, territorial cohesion, the Lisbon Agenda and regional development, as well as the European integrated maritime policy.
160 regij, ki zajemajo več kot 190 milijonov prebivalcev iz obmorskih regij Evrope, se je sestalo na generalni skupščini CPMR, na kateri je tekla razprava o vrsti tem, vključno z energetskimi in podnebnimi vprašanji, teritorialno ko-hezijo, programom lizbonske strategije in regionalnim razvojem ter evropsko celostno pomorsko politiko.
Although the urban network is relatively dense, only 7% of the population live in cities of over 5 million as opposed to 25% in the US.
Čeprav je urbano omrežje sorazmerno gosto, le 7 % prebivalstva živi v mestih z več kot 5 milijoni prebivalcev, v nasprotju s 25 % v ZDA.
All this means that although urban life is a widespread feature, it is not a concentrated one: city dwellers live close to rural areas and rural residents often live within easy reach of services.
To pomeni, da je urbano življenje sicer splošna značilnost, vendar ni zgoščeno: prebivalci mest živijo blizu podeželskih območij, ljudje s podeželja pa imajo pogosto lahek dostop do služb.
'The […] paper demonstrates our commitment to engaging in a real public debate on the signicance of territorial cohesion for the design and implementation of community policies', Hübner adds.
Povzetek tega posvetovanja bo objavljen v mesecih po koncu razprave februarja 2009.
European Investment Bank (EIB) – 50 years of service
Evropska investicijska banka (EIB) – 50 let delovanja http://ec.europa.eu/regional_policy/consultation/terco/index_sl.htm
A summary of the consultation will be published in the months following the end of the debate in February, 2009.
Vzorec gospodarske dejavnosti je veliko bolj neenakomeren in nekatera mestna območja so še vedno močno preobremenjena, potencial drugih pa je neizkoriščen.
Territorial cohesion, the Green Paper explains, is about ensuring the harmonious development of all Europe’s regions.
Zelena knjiga razlaga, da teritorialna kohezija pomeni usklajen razvoj vseh evropskih regij.
“Increasingly, competitiveness and prosperity depend on the capacity of the people and businesses located there to make the best use of all territorial assets”, which is where public policy can play a major part, helping communities:
„Konkurenčnost in blaginja sta vse bolj odvisni od sposobnosti prebivalcev in podjetij v nekem kraju za najboljši možen izkoristek vseh teritorialnih prednosti tega kraja.“ Pri tem ima lahko javna politika pomembno vlogo, s tem da skupnostim pomaga, da:
•respond jointly to common challenges such as climate change and globalisation;
•se skupaj odzovejo na skupne izzive, kot so podnebne spremembe in globalizacija,
Growing investment needs confront public authorities while available resources get more scarce, underlining the need to use available funding as eciently as possible and find complementary sources of funding to fill short falls.
Javni organi morajo zadovoljiti čedalje večje naložbene potrebe, medtem ko so razpoložljivi viri čedalje redkejši. Zato se poudarja nujnost, da se razpoložljiva finančna sredstva uporabijo čim bolj učinkovito in poiščejo dodatni viri nan-ciranja za zapolnitev lukenj.
These and other subjects were discussed by delegates at the EIB’s 50thanniversary conference in Bratislava, 15-16 October.
O teh in drugih vprašanjih so delegati razpravljali 15. in 16. oktobra v Bratislavi na konferenci ob 50-letnici EIB.
Speakers included European Commissioner Danuta Hübner, Minister Ján Počiatek, CEOs of partner institutions as well as EIB managers and experts.
Na konferenci so med drugimi govorili evropska komisarka Danuta Hübner, minister Ján Počiatek, predsedniki in generalni direktorji partnerskih institucij ter direktorji in strokovnjaki EIB.

•overcome divisions stemming from administrative borders.
•presežejo razhajanja zaradi upravnih meja.
The proposal puts up for debate the argument that Cohesion Policy needs to consider new themes, new forms of cooperation and new partnerships.
Predlog odpira razpravo o trditvi, da mora kohezijska politika upoštevati nove teme, nove oblike sodelovanja in nova partnerstva.
Many issues do not respect borders and frontiers. They need a coordinated response from various regions including those neighbouring the EU.
Mnoga vprašanja presegajo meje in zahtevajo usklajen odziv različnih regij, vključno z regijami v soseščini EU.
Existing Cohesion Policy works well when dealing with ‘place based’ challenges such as regional development but doesn’t mesh well enough with other policies.
Sedanja kohezijska politika dobro deluje, kadar se ukvarja z „lokalnimi izzivi“, kot je regionalni razvoj, vendar se ne ujema dovolj dobro z drugimi politikami.
Announcing a shift in EU strategy for the outermost regions of the EU, Commissioner Dauta Hübner called the islands, “Regions of opportunity”.
Ko je komisarka Danuta Hübner napovedala premik v strategiji EU do najbolj oddaljenih regij EU, je otoke imenovala „regije priložnosti“.
Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Réunion, Martinique, the Azores, Madeira and the Canaries are European assets, explained the Commissioner.
Guadeloupe, Francoska Gvajana, Reunion, Martinik, Azori, Madeira in Kanarski otoki so evropsko bogastvo, je izjavila komisarka.
The islands occupy positions of strategic importance, both in terms of maritime boundaries and for neighbour-hood relations.
Lega otokov je strateškega pomena tako za meje na morju kot sosedske odnose.
In 2007-13, €7.8 billion will fund programmes dealing with the new challenges of climate change, demographic shifts and migration.
V obdobju 2007–2013 bo 7,8 milijarde EUR namenjenih za nanciranje programov za reševanje novih izzivov v zvezi s podnebnimi spremembami, demografskim razvojem in selitvenimi tokovi.
“I am convinced that the debate on territorial cohesion can help us improve the policies contributing to the competitiveness of our territories, the well-being of our citizens and the quality of our environment,” explains Danuta Hübner, Commissioner for Regional Policy.
Upa se, da bo zelena knjiga spodbudila razpravo in opogumila ljudi, da povedo svoje mnenje. Med

Teritorialna raznolikost pomembno prispeva k zagotavljanju usklajenega razvoja vseh evropskih regij.
Regions and cities in a challenging world – Open Days 2008 a hive of activity
Regije in mesta v negotovem svetu – Odprti dnevi 2008 – gora dejavnosti
More comprehensive than ever, Open Days 2008 provided a platform for cities and regions to showcase what they are doing to stimulate sustainable economic development and to lay the foundation for future partnerships.
Odprti dnevi 2008, obširnejši kot kdajkoli, so bili za mesta in regije tribuna, na kateri so prikazali, kako spodbujajo trajnostni gospodarski razvoj in polagajo temelje za partnerstva v prihodnosti.
This year attracted 6 000 participants, 216 regions and 32 countries – the event just keeps gaining momentum.
Letos je na njih sodelovalo 6 000 udeležencev, 216 regij in 32 držav – prireditev ima še vedno veter v jadrih.
The private sector, banking and business were also represented by companies such as Siemens, Motorola and Michelin present at the Investor’s Café, which proved to be a networking hub throughout the event.
Zasebni sektor, bančništvo in podjetja so zastopale družbe, kot so Siemens, Motorola in Michelin; sodelovale so na Kavarni vlagateljev (Investor’s Café), ki se je izkazala kot povezovalna nit skozi celotno prireditev.
Open Days, organised by the European Commission’s Regional Policy department and the Committee of the Regions, was the sixth of its kind and has now established itself as a key feature of the regional policy calendar.
Odprti dnevi v organizaciji oddelka Evropske komisije za regionalno politiko in Odbora regij so bili šesti po vrsti in so se uveljavili kot ključni dogodek v koledarju regionalne politike.
From 6–9 October, 140 seminars and debates took place on subjects exploring four themes: ‘innovating regions’; ‘sustainable development’; ‘cooperation and networking’ and ‘looking forward’ which examined the Cohesion Policy of tomorrow.
Od 6. do 9. oktobra je potekalo 140 seminarjev in razprav o štirih temah: inovativne regije, trajnostni razvoj, sodelovanje in mreženje ter pogled v prihodnost. Na njih se je govorilo o kohezijski politiki jutri.
This last issue was of particular relevance given the publication of a Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion, ‘Turning territorial diversity into strength’.
To vprašanje je bilo še posebej pomembno ob izdaji zelene knjige o kohezijski politiki pod geslom „Preoblikovanje teritorialne raznolikosti v prednost“.
The Green Paper and the newly established European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGCT) formed two of the key issues under discussion.
Zelena knjiga in novo ustanovljeno Evropsko združenje za teritorialno sodelovanje (EZTS) sta bila v središču razprav.
Although main events were hosted in Brussels, more than 203 fringe events took place under the banner ‘Europe in my Region’ throughout October.
Čeprav so se glavni dogodki odvijali v Bruslju, so več kot 203 obrobni dogodki oktobra potekali pod naslovom „Evropa v moji regiji“.
President of the Committee of the Regions Luc Van den Brande explains why the decentralised part of this year’s European week of regions and cities is more important than ever before.
Predsednik Odbora regij Luc Van den Brande pojasnjuje, zakaj je decentralizirani del letošnjih Odprtih dni pomembnejši kot kdajkoli prej.
“European policies are not only relevant to the two square kilometres surrounding the EU institutions in Brussels.
„Evropske politike niso pomembne samo za dva kvadratna kilometra okoli evropskih institucij v Bruslju.
They are also relevant to Europe’s vibrant regions and cities.” 30 countries hosted events raising awareness of EU policies, particularly Cohesion, in events that included conferences, seminars, youth debates and sporting activities.
Pomembne so tudi za razgibane evropske regije in mesta.“ Trideset držav je gostilo dogodke, ki so prispevali h krepitvi zavesti o politikah EU, zlasti kohezijski, in sicer na konferencah, seminarjih, v razpravah mladih in športnih dejavnostih.
One of the most important features of Open Days is the event’s ability to bring together academics, policy makers, managing authorities and associations in workshops which then open to the floor for more general discussion.
Ena od najpomembnejših značilnosti Odprtih dni je, da se na delavnicah zberejo akademiki, oblikovalci politik, organi upravljanja in združenja, ki se potem odprejo občinstvu za širšo razpravo.
“It is this dialogue between the public, private and academic sectors that sets the Open Days apart and it is in this collaboration where we see lasting value.”
„Zaradi tega dialoga med javnostjo, zasebnimi in akademskimi sektorji so Odprti dnevi nekaj posebnega in prav v tem sodelovanju vidimo trajno vrednost.“
A special strategy for Danube region called for
Zahteva se posebna strategija za podonavsko regijo
A policy for the Danube Basin, meeting the region’s ecological, transport and socio-economic needs, should be set in place, urged Commissioner for Regional Policy, Danuta Hübner ahead of an Open Days conference, 6 October.
Komisarka za regionalno politiko Danuta Hübner se je pred konferenco Odprtih dni 6. oktobra zavzela za politiko za donavsko porečje, ki bi zadovoljila ekološke, prometne in družbenogospodarske potrebe regije.
link between the Black and North Seas and improving the navigability for cargo barges while protecting the environment is a challenge.
med Črnim in Severnim morjem, ki izboljšuje plovnost za tovorne ladje, vendar pomeni velik izziv za varstvo okolja.
Now recognised by the EU as the “single most important non-oceanic body of water in Europe” the world’s most international river crosses ten countries as it flows the 2 857 km from the Black Forest to the Black sea.
Donava je v EU priznana kot „največja neoceanska vodna površina Evrope“ in kot najbolj mednarodna reka na svetu preteče skozi deset držav 2 857 km od Schwarzwalda do Črnega morja.
The potential for economic development in the area is strong since the river provides a variety of resources for business in the form of transport and logistics but also for tourism and culture.
To območje ima velike možnosti za gospodarski razvoj, saj ponuja reka vrsto poslovnih priložnosti v prometu in logistiki, pa tudi turizmu in kulturi.
Trips down the Danube are proving popular with tourists and operators who are seeking to boost the region’s prole.
Turisti se radi udeležujejo izletov po Donavi, izvajalci pa si prizadevajo prikazati čim lepšo podobo regije.
