The Sustainable Development Observatory (SDO) should encourage networks of interested partners, develop contacts with the numerous organisations dealing with sustainable development at the economic and social level and also with the European Environment Agency and Eurostat.
Z gospodarskega vidika je podjetništvo predvsem ključ za soočanje z izzivi globalizacije, vendar ne sme biti cilj sam po sebi, temveč mora imeti tudi „človeški obraz“.
In addition, it should follow several indicators of progress, and find examples of good and bad practices.
Njegov višji cilj mora biti ohranitev evropskega socialnega modela, ki je edinstven zgled za druge dele sveta, in oblikovanje tega modela tako, da se bo lahko soočal z nevarnostmi svetovne konkurence in z demografskimi spremembami.
Climate change, energy policy and environmental protection
Podnebne spremembe, energetska politika in varstvo okolja
Being myself an entrepreneur, I know very well that time is precious (some even say that ‘time is money’); that is why I have focused my programme on essential priorities and I have tried to be concrete, practical and measurable.
Tudi sam sem podjetnik, zato dobro vem, da je čas dragocen – nekateri bodo rekli celo, da je denar. Svoj program sem zato skrčil na ključne prednostne naloge in jim skušal dati konkreten, praktičen in merljiv značaj.
It is divided into three parts: my political, thematic priorities; the role of the EESC in the context of the European Union; and the Committee’s own affairs.
Razdeljen je na tri dele: moje politične in tematske prednostne naloge, vlogo EESO v okviru Evropske unije in notranje zadeve Odbora.
In our times, the political agendas change almost daily and that leads me to the new top priority that has been promoted by the European Commission, namely climate change and energy policy. […]
V današnjem času se politični dnevni red spreminja skoraj iz dneva v dan, zaradi česar moram spregovoriti o novi veliki prednostni nalogi, ki jo je predstavila Evropska komisija: podnebne spremembe in energetska politika (...).
I am particularly grateful to all the members who answered my request for contributions.
Še posebej hvaležen sem vsem članom, ki so se odzvali na moj poziv k pripravi predlogov.
They are all valuable, and well thought through, although sometimes diverging.
Vsi prejeti predlogi so zelo dragoceni in premišljeni, čeprav se včasih med sabo razhajajo.
I have taken on board in particular those suggestions which reflect a broad consensus.
Uporabil sem predvsem tiste predloge, ki odsevajo široko soglasje.
If you find no trace of your suggestions in this programme, it does not mean that I have disregarded them: they are in a file and I will continue to refer to them during the implementation of my programme.
Če svojih predlogov ne zasledite v programu, to ne pomeni, da sem jih zavrgel; nasprotno, hranim jih v dosjeju in jih bom redno uporabljal pri izvajanju programa.
Likewise, new ideas are always welcome.
Nove ideje so prav tako vedno dobrodošle.
We have to collaborate on exploring the domestic and international policy options for achieving the much needed energy strategy package.
EESO ima v svojih vrstah izkušene člane, ki dobro poznajo to tematiko, zato od njih pričakujem, da bodo dejavno sodelovali v razpravah.
Together with our experts and the Bureau, I want to reflect on how to build up an appropriate structure in the Committee and I would welcome it if the Committee were asked to deliver exploratory opinions on this topic.
Tako na notranji kot na mednarodni ravni moramo sodelovati pri proučevanju političnih možnosti, ki bi prispevale k oblikovanju zelo potrebne energetske strategije.
Globalisation imposes three kinds of challenge to the EU: an economic one, an intellectual one (concerning education, innovation and research) and one of governance. […] The answer to globalisation must become a new engine for European integration: citizens and society know that the national framework is not sufficient to solve problems.
V sodelovanju z našimi strokovnjaki in predsedstvom želim začeti razpravo o tem, kako bi lahko v Odboru vzpostavili primerno strukturo, zelo zadovoljen pa bi bil tudi, če bi Odbor prejel zaprosilo za pripravo raziskovalnih mnenj na to temo.
The European Union is, with its current 27 Member States, already the most important economic union in the world and with future enlargements it keeps growing.
Evropska unija, ki danes šteje 27 držav članic, je že zdaj najpomembnejša gospodarska povezava na svetu, s prihodnjimi širitvami pa se bo njena teža še povečala.
We must be aware of its strength, but we can achieve it only by sticking together, showing one face and speaking with one voice to its partners.
Te moči se moramo zavedati, poleg tega pa tudi dejstva, da bomo lahko uspeli le, če bomo ostali združeni in s partnerji EU govorili kot ena oseba in z enim glasom.
Social dialogue is an important tool for democracy and economic development.
Socialni dialog je pomemben instrument demokracije in gospodarskega razvoja.
Close cooperation between the European Union, national governments, the social partners and other civil society stakeholders is needed.
Potrebno je tesno sodelovanje med Evropsko unijo, nacionalnimi vladami, socialnimi partnerji in drugimi akterji civilne družbe.
Necessary reforms and adjustments of social security systems must be negotiated and understood in order to be accepted.
Da bodo potrebne reforme in prilagoditve sistemov socialnega varstva sprejete, se je treba o njih pogajati in jih razumeti.
The famous services directive is a striking example in this context.
Zgovoren primer za to je slovita direktiva o storitvah, zato moramo pozorno spremljati predlog direktive o delovnem času. (...)
Therefore we should follow closely the proposed working time directive.
V socialnem sistemu je treba razvijati izobraževanje ter spodbujati in podpirati prilagodljivost. (…)
The social system must develop training, encourage and stimulate adaptability. […]
Pri tem ima Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor pomembno vlogo, tako kot organizacija z različnimi delovnimi telesi kot tudi prek prispevkov vas, članov.
The changes provoked by our ageing societies are a challenge for social security systems; that is true.
Spremembe, ki jih prinaša starajoča se družba, so prav gotovo izziv za sisteme socialnega varstva.
But we must also explore all the potential that an active senior population represents. […]
Toda raziskati moramo tudi potencial, ki ga predstavlja aktivno starejše prebivalstvo. (…)
No policy, no programme will be effective, without each of you taking an active part in it by multiplying the effects and providing feedback on its implementation.
Nobena politika in noben program ne more biti učinkovit brez dejavnega sodelovanja vsakega člana posebej, saj se le tako lahko širijo njihovi učinki in zagotavljajo povratne informacije o njihovem izvajanju.
The institutional role of the Committee in the field of external relations is limited.
Odbor ima na področju zunanjih odnosov omejeno institucionalno vlogo.
However, by our steady contacts with our partners outside the European Union we can be a ‘flanking partner’ to the EU’s official policy.
Toda z rednimi stiki z našimi partnerji zunaj Evropske unije smo lahko v podporo uradni politiki EU.
As we are not politicians (and nor do we pretend to be), we can sometimes assist politicians when foreign policy is not making much progress.
Ker nismo politiki (in si tudi ne domišljamo, da smo), jim lahko pomagamo v trenutkih, ko se zunanja politika znajde v slepi ulici.
The renewed Lisbon agenda and competitiveness
Prenovljena lizbonska strategija in konkurenčnost
International Association of Economic and Social Councils and Similar Institutions (IAESCSI)
Mednarodno združenje ekonomsko-socialnih svetov in podobnih institucij (AICESIS)
The most important political instrument of the European Union to face globalisation is the renewed Lisbon agenda.
Vesel sem, da je EESO septembra 2006 v Seulu pridobil status polnopravnega člana združenja AICESIS.
At the 2005 spring summit, in order to revitalise the process, it was decided to concentrate the priorities on:
Zdaj moramo ne le potrditi vlogo Odbora kot člana AICESIS, temveč tudi igrati vidno vlogo v tej organizaciji. (…)
I am pleased that the EESC was granted in Seoul in September 2006 full membership of the IAESCSI as of 1 January 2007.
Prenovljena lizbonska strategija je najpomembnejši politični instrument EU za soočanje z globalizacijo.
This is an obligation for us not only to assert the EESC’s role as a full member of IAESCSI, but also to play a leading role in this organisation.
Sklep spomladanskega zasedanja Evropskega sveta leta 2005 je bil, da se je treba za nov zagon procesa osredotočiti na naslednje prednostne naloge:
— stimulating growth and jobs, and— measures to encourage research, innovation and competitiveness.
– spodbujanje rasti in zaposlovanja in– ukrepe za spodbujanje raziskav, inovacij in konkurenčnosti.

EESC INFO / September 2007 / 7 — Special edition
EESO-INFO / September 2007 / 7 – Posebna izdaja
(Continued from page 1)EURO-MED countries
(nadaljevanje s strani 1)Države evromediteranskega partnerstva
Our partnership with the southern Mediterranean countries and their economic and social councils (where these exist) is a success story and should not to be underestimated. […]
Naše partnerstvo z državami južnega Sredozemlja in njihovimi ekonomskimi in socialnimi sveti, če jih imajo, je edinstven dosežek, ki se ga ne sme podcenjevati. (…)
I remind you that the EESC had been invited as an official observer during the work of the European Convention that drafted a Constitution for the EU.
Berlinska izjava z dne 25. marca 2007 ob petdeseti obletnici podpisa Rimskih pogodb, bi morala biti ključni del sestavljanke, ki vodi do rešitve institucionalnega vprašanja.
This was under the presidency of my predecessors, Mr Göke Frerichs and Mr Roger Briesch.
Še enkrat želim opozoriti na to, da Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor brez pridržkov podpira načela, vrednote in vsebino ustavne pogodbe (…).
We shall continue to create closer links with the EURO-MED civil societies to promote participative democracy, education, creation of new jobs, human rights (including gender equality) and environmental policies, encouraging debates and cooperation on a sub-regional level.
Še naprej bomo navezovali tesne stike s civilnimi družbami držav evromediteranskega partnerstva in tako spodbujali participativno demokracijo, izobraževanje, ustvarjanje delovnih mest, človekove pravice (vključno z enakostjo spolov) in okoljske politike, pri čemer bomo dali prednost razpravam in sodelovanju znotraj te regije.
Whilst it seems to be acquis among European leaders that further enlargements require institutional reforms within the EU as a precondition, the Committee should nevertheless continue its work in the different field of activities.
Dovolite mi, da podam politično izjavo v zvezi z mirovnim procesom na Bližnjem vzhodu: menim, da je treba zgraditi trajni mir na temeljih vzajemnega razumevanja med družbami evro-sredozemskega območja.
But even more important for me is to raise the political profile of our Committee.
Izboljšanje politične prepoznavnosti našega Odbora je po našem mnenju še pomembnejša naloga in splošni izziv mojega predsedovanja (…).
This is going to be an overall challenge for all my activities as President.
Trdno sem prepričan, da ima EESO s svojo vlogo „mostu“ med EU in državljani ter strokovnim znanjem ključno funkcijo med institucijami EU.
I am deeply convinced that our Committee has a crucial function among the EU institutions and bodies with its ‘bridging’ function to the citizens and its unique assembly of expertise.
Čeprav se evropskim voditeljem zdijo institucionalne reforme v EU temeljni pogoj za nadaljnje širitve, mora Odbor kljub temu nadaljevati z delom na različnih področjih dejavnosti.
We should in particular increase our efforts to strengthen our relations with the European Parliament, as its importance has steadily grown over the past decade.
Glede na vedno večji pomen, ki ga je ta institucija pridobila v zadnjih desetih letih, moramo še posebej povečati prizadevanja za okrepitev naših odnosov z Evropskim parlamentom.
This is clearly the ‘new frontier’.
To je eden jasnih novih izzivov za naš Odbor.
Turkey It is well known that the accession negotiations are experiencing difficulties […].
Skupino bi bilo treba povečati na dvanajst članov, da bi bila enako velika kot druge tovrstne skupine Odbora.
I want to establish regular contacts with the EP’s Conference of Committee Chairmen and with the chairmen of the political groups.
Člani EESO bi morali več in bolj dejavno sodelovati na sejah parlamentarnih odborov, zato bom razmislil, kako in pod kakšnimi pogoji bi lahko oživili skupino za stike EESO-EP.
We need a more active presence and participation of our members in meetings of the parliamentary committees.
Kot je znano, se pogajanja trenutno srečujejo s težavami.
I will explore how and under what conditions we can revitalise the EESC/EP contact group.
Neodvisno od teh prizadevanj bodo imeli naši poročevalci pri tem ključno vlogo: oni so namreč tisti, ki morajo stopiti v stik s poročevalci Evropskega parlamenta, ki se ukvarjajo z isto temo, in oceniti, v kolikšni meri mnenja Odbora prinašajo dodano vrednost v postopku odločanja.
Our contribution should be to strengthen the links with Turkish civil society and business community and via the Joint Consultative Committee (JCC), in order to encourage the efforts for reforms that lead to the country’s readiness for accession to the EU.
EESO bi moral k temu prispevati s krepitvijo stikov s civilno družbo in podjetniškimi krogi Turčije prek skupnega posvetovalnega odbora (SPO) in tako spodbujati prizadevanja za reforme, ki bodo državo pripravile na pristop k EU.
Relations with India and China […] should naturally be at the centre of our attention when it comes to bilateral contacts.
Odnosi z Indijo in Kitajsko (...) bi morali biti seveda v središču naše pozornosti, ko gre za dvostranske odnose.
We should strengthen the links between our Committee and Chinese civil society by setting up an EU–China round table on the lines of the one we have with India. […]
Odnose med Odborom in kitajsko civilno družbo bi bilo treba okrepiti z ustanovitvijo okrogle mize EU-Kitajska po vzoru okrogle mize z Indijo. (...)
A steady dialogue should be maintained with the General Secretariat of the Council on the working methods of the Council.
Spodbujati moramo odprtost za druge kulture.V mislih imam zlasti številne priseljenske kulture, ki so že dolgo prisotne v večini držav članic.
We have to promote the idea of opening our minds towards different cultures.
Še pomembneje je natančno slediti prednostnim nalogam predsedstev Sveta.
In the first place, I have in mind the many large immigrant populations already present in most of the Member States.
Vedno, ko bo potrebno, bom tudi skušal navezati dvostranske stike s stalnimi predstavništvi držav članic.
— the respect of the immigrants for the laws and values of the States in which they have come to live (for after all, if they leave their home countries, it is because they hope that life will be better in an EU Member State);
Najpomembnejša točka ostajajo zaprosila za pripravo raziskovalnih mnenj (...), zlasti o izzivih globalizacije, temi, ki sem jo uvrstil med naše tematske prednostne naloge.
But most important are the exploratory opinions […] regarding notably the challenges of globalisation, which I have earmarked as one of our thematic priorities.
Jasno mora biti, da je treba spoštovanje teh tradicij obravnavati z obeh strani:
— the respect of the EU Member States and their societies for the values and traditions of the immigrants provided that they are not in contradiction with our laws and values.
– z vidika priseljencev glede na zakone in vrednote države, v kateri so se naselili (konec koncev so zapustili svojo državo izvora zato, da bi našli v državi EU boljše življenje),
Our relations with the Commission are generally excellent and the protocol of 2005 is proof of this.
Naši odnosi s Komisijo so na splošno odlični, na kar kaže tudi protokol iz leta 2005.
The addendum to this protocol will further strengthen relations and ensure closer cooperation between the Committee and the Commission.
Dodatek k temu protokolu bo še okrepil te odnose in zagotovil tesnejše sodelovanje med Odborom in Komisijo.
Our rapporteurs should not only meet Commissioners and their departments before they start drafting opinions. After the adoption of an opinion by the plenary session they should go again and sell their ‘product’ at the highest possible level. […]
– in s stališča držav članic EU in njihovih družb glede spoštovanja vrednot in tradicij priseljencev, pod pogojem, da niso v nasprotju z našimi zakoni in načeli.
The common philosophy of the EU encourages an inter-religious dialogue, with other cultures of the world. The upcoming Slovenian Presidency of the Council wants to make this dialogue a priority of its agenda in 2008.
Naloga naših poročevalcev ne sme biti omejena na srečanja s komisarji in njihovimi službami pred pripravo mnenja; stike je treba ohraniti tudi, ko je bilo mnenje že sprejeto na plenarnem zasedanju, in skušati zagotoviti čim višjo raven besedila. (...)
Relations with the national economic and social councils (ESCs)
Skupna filozofija, na kateri temelji EU, spodbuja dialog med različnimi verstvi in z drugimi kulturami sveta. Prihodnje slovensko predsedstvo Sveta EU želi ta dialog uvrstiti med prednostne naloge svojega programa za leto 2008.
THE ROLE OF THE EESC IN THE EUROPEAN UNION
VLOGA EESO V EVROPSKI UNIJI
The Consitutional Treaty, institutional reform and the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the European Union
Ustavna pogodba, institucionalna reforma in praznovanje 50. obletnice Evropske unije
As a first step in assuming a ‘leadership role’ in the network of ESCs in the European Union, I have invited their respective presidents to come to Brussels to attend the plenary session in July 2007 and to participate in a debate on institutional reform.
Po neuspelem francoskem in nizozemskem referendumu in po zaključku precej dolgega „obdobja za razmislek“ je sedaj treba ponovno sprožiti razpravo in pogajanja o medinstitucionalnih vprašanjih.
After the shock of the two negative referendums in France and the Netherlands and an extended ‘period of reflection’, the time is ripe to relaunch the institutional debate and negotiation.
Poleg tega želim prek članov EESO iz držav, v katerih ESS ne obstajajo (…), navezati tesne stike z njihovimi glavnimi socialno-poklicnimi organizacijami in nacionalnimi nevladnimi organizacijami.
The EU needs to address the fundamental aspects laid down in the Constitutional Treaty, whether we finally entitle it a constitution or simply a basic or fundamental treaty.
Gökeja Frerichsa in Rogerja Briescha uradno povabljen, da kot opazovalec sodeluje pri delu Evropske konvencije, zadolžene za pripravo Osnutka Ustave za Evropo.
One of my ambitions is to succeed in convincing all stakeholders in Cyprus of the benefits they can obtain from establishing a national economic and social council.
Pri delu skupine za stike s civilno družbo in njeni sestavi ter delovanju je zelo pomembna preglednost, da EESO ne bi bil obravnavan kot „velika nevladna organizacija“.
Printed versions of EESC Info in German, English and French are available free of charge from the European Economic and Social Committee Press Office.
Poleg tega je treba določiti merila za pristop in načine sodelovanja z organizacijami civilne družbe EU ter predvsem s tretjimi državami.
