In regions undergoing restructuring, the principal problem is not the lack of infrastructure, but the decline of traditional economic activity.
V regijah, ki so v fazi prestrukturiranja, ni glavni problem pomanjkanje infrastrukture, ampak propadanje tradicionalnih gospodarskih dejavnosti.
It is necessary, therefore, to target the development of alternative activities.
Te regije potrebujejo alternativne dejavnosti.
Selected additional infrastructure may still be co-financed by the Structural Funds in these regions to improve their attractiveness and employment levels.
Dodatno infrastrukturo bodo regije lahko sofinancirale iz strukturnih skladov in s tem povečale raven zaposlenosti.

The technologies of the information society, based on the Internet, make it possible for disadvantaged, and notably for isolated or marginal, areas to attract and retain economic activities.
Tehnologije informacijske družbe, ki temeljijo na internetu, omogočajo nerazvitim in oddaljenim regijam privabljanje in ohranjanje gospodarskih dejavnosti.
To reduce the ‘digital divide’, regions must encourage firms and communities to make use of these technologies for electronic commerce, the exchange of data, telecommuting or to inform the citizens.
Za zmanjšanje „digitalnega razkoraka“, morajo regije spodbujati podjetja in skupnosti k uporabi teh tehnologij za elektronsko trgovanje, izmenjavo podatkov, upravljanje na daljavo ali obveščanje državljanov.
Telecom operators generally take charge of the investment in telecommunication networks, but the European Funds can intervene, for example, to ensure the principle of universal service, i.e. to guarantee access to these networks in places where demand is not sufficiently great to be attractive to the market.
Investicije v telekomunikacijsko omrežje je v glavnem domena telefonskih operaterjev, toda evropski skladi lahko pomagajo pri zagotavljanju enotnih storitev, t.j. omogočajo dostop do omrežij na območjih, kjer je povpraševanje po tovrstnih storitvah skromno.
Improvement of the production processes of management and marketing also plays a key role.
Izboljšanje proizvodnih procesov upravljanja in oglaševanja je tudi zelo pomemben element razvoja.
Regions and their firms would do well to open up to innovation in this area and establish regional strategies to promote innovation.
Dobro bi bilo, če bi regije in njihova podjetja na tem področju začela z inovacijami in vzpostavili regionalne strategije za spodbujanje inovacij.
This involves supporting research activities, transfer of technology and skills, and continuing education; and to achieve this, encouraging the collaboration of public and private bodies such as universities, research centres and development agencies.
To vključuje podporo raziskovalnim aktivnostim, prenos tehnologije in znanja ter vseživljenjsko izobraževanje.
The objective must be for research and innovation to have a real impact on regional economic development.
Za doseganje tega je potrebno podpirati sodelovanje javnih in zasebnih institucij kot so univerze, raziskovalni centri in razvojne agencije.
sectors for regional and local development and employment.
Cilj raziskav in inovacij mora biti pospešitev gospodarskega razvoja regij.
To create or develop firms, and SMEs in particular, entrepreneurs must have access to funding bodies.
Podjetniki morajo imeti dostop do finančnih podpor, če želijo ustanavljati nova podjetja, še posebej mala in srednja.
The Structural Funds can help them with this on condition that classical funding in terms of capital is limited in favour of other formulas of financial engineering.
Strukturni skladi jim lahko pri tem pomagajo pod pogojem, da je klasično financiranje kapitala omejeno v korist drugim vrstam finančnih spodbud.
The financial services provided notably by private capital must reflect the specific needs of SMEs and make it possible for them to achieve a high degree of specialisation and obtain commercial advantages.
Finančne storitve, ki jih nudi zasebni kapital, morajo odražati specifične potrebe malih in srednjih podjetij in omogočati doseganje visoke stopnje specializiranosti in komercialnih ugodnosti.
Tourism, culture and heritage, the environment and social economics are the most promising
Turizem, kultura in dediščina, okolje in socialna ekonomika so najbolj obetajoča področja za regionalni in lokalni razvoj ter zaposlovanje.
A quality environment is an important asset for the image of a region and its economic attractiveness, but it also plays a vital role in confronting ecological risks.
Neokrnjeno okolje je pomembno za videz regije in njeno gospodarsko privlačnost in igra ključno vlogo pri soočanju z ekološkimi tveganji.
The Structural Funds support the construction of environmental infrastructure wherever it is needed: such things as water purification and waste treatment stations and systems to channel quality water-reducing losses in the networks, as well as activities to recover and recycle waste, reduce pollutant levels in discharges, and select ‘clean’ technologies, without forgetting job creation in the environmental professions.
Strukturni skladi podpirajo izgradnjo okoljske infrastrukture, kjer je potrebna: to so čistilne naprave in odlagališča odpadkov ter sistemi za zmanjšanje izgub vode v vodovodnem omrežju. Tu so tudi aktivnosti za recikliranje odpadkov, zmanjšanje količin škodljivih snovi med odpadki, izbiro „čistih“ tehnologij in ustvarjanje delovnih mest v okoljskih poklicih.
Increase and improve employment
Za povečanje zaposlenosti
Employment has become the number one social concern.
Zaposlenost je postala najpomembnejše vprašanje na socialnem področju.
This is why the Union has established a European employment strategy, which promotes concerted action in this area throughout the European territory.
Iz tega razloga je Unija oblikovala evropsko strategijo zaposlovanja, ki spodbuja enotne ukrepe na tem področju na vsem ozemlju EU.
Human resources must be developed both to remedy and prevent unemployment.
Razvoj človeških virov zmanjšuje in preprečuje brezposelnost.
As education remains the principal key that opens the door to employment, it is important to improve education policies and systems.
Ker izobrazba ostaja ključ, ki odpira vrata do zaposlitve, je pomembno, da izboljšamo izobraževalno politiko in sisteme.
Furthermore, it means not abandoning young people on the edge of the labour market and assisting the unemployed — notably the long-term unemployed — to find their way back to employment.
To pomeni, da mladih ljudi na obrobju trga dela ne prepuščamo samim sebi in pomagamo brezposelnim – še posebej trajno brezposelnim – pri iskanju zaposlitve.
The Union supports the improvement of employment readiness systems and notably personalised aid to employment seekers, measures to facilitate access to unsalaried activities, the diversification of basic and continuing training and promotion of continuing education.
Unija podpira sisteme za iskanje zaposlitve, predvsem prilagojeno pomoč iskalcem zaposlitve. Prizadeva si za poenostavitev dostopa do prostovoljnih dejavnosti, povečanje raznovrstnosti osnovnega in trajnega usposabljanja in spodbuja vseživljenjsko učenje.
To combat social marginalisation, the Union pays particular attention to the new methods of social and professional integration promoted by public or private partners or associations, for example in the form of partnerships between training institutions and firms.
V boju proti socialni marginalizaciji Unija posveča posebno pozornost novim metodam socialne in poklicne integracije, ki jo spodbujajo javni in zasebni partnerji ali združenja, na primer v obliki partnerstev med izobraževalnimi institucijami in podjetji.
The information society of course plays an essential role in terms of employment and training and its importance is highlighted everywhere.
Informacijska družba je pomembna tudi pri zaposlovanju in usposabljanju.
Other fields of action with a rich potential in terms of employment include local development and social economy projects.
Druge aktivnosti, ki povečujejo zaposlovanje so projekti lokalnega razvoja in socialnega gospodarstva.
The fundamental principle of equal opportunity for both men and women plays a prominent role in all the actions promoting employment, as elsewhere, in all the Structural Funds’ programmes.
Osnovno načelo enakih možnosti za moške in ženske igra pomembno vlogo tako pri ukrepih, ki spodbujajo zaposlovanje, kot tudi v drugih programih strukturnih skladov.
This takes the form of a variety of actions designed to do such things as eliminate discrimination, assist women to pursue a career and gain access to higher positions, balance their representation in certain professions, and reconcile professional and family life.
Ukrepi za odpravo diskriminacije so v obliki pomoči ženskam pri načrtovanju kariere in zasedanju višjih položajev, povečanju njihove prisotnosti v določenih poklicih in usklajevanju poklicnega in družinskega življenja.
Other forms of discrimination that call for other actions involve individuals at risk on the labour market for such things as ethnic origin, handicap or age.
Druge oblike, ki zahtevajo druge vrste ukrepov, vključujejo posameznike na trgu dela, ki so diskriminirani zaradi etnične pripadnosti, invalidnosti ali starosti.
The ESF finances all these measures and others all over the Union and in the programmes of the EQUAL Community initiative.
ESF financira vse te ukrepe po vsej Uniji, kakor tudi tiste v okviru programov pobude EQUAL.
Specific features of Objective 3
Posebnosti Cilja 3
Objective 3 is thematic rather than territorial.
Cilj 3 je bolj področne kot ozemljske narave.
In effect, it includes persons who may live in any region.
V bistvu vključuje osebe, ki bi lahko živele v katerikoli regiji.
It acts as a frame of reference for all measures promoting human resources and employment in the Union and the Member States are invited to take them into account in their own national employment plans.
Deluje kot okvir za vse ukrepe, ki spodbujajo človeške vire in zaposlovanje v Uniji. Države članice naj bi jih upoštevale v svojih načrtih zaposlovanja.
These measures are included automatically in the programmes for the regions in Objective 1 in order to integrate them better with the development actions in these regions.
Ti ukrepi so vključeni tudi v programe v okviru Cilja 1, da bi se lahko dopolnjevali z razvojnimi ukrepi v teh regijah.
Balance development in urban and rural areas activities in numerous areas such as clean energy and waste management, improved public transportation and ‘clean’ transport systems, a harmonious urban structure, greater respect for the architectural heritage, economic and social revitalisation of neighbourhoods in crisis, and services for the inhabitants to improve the role of cities and towns as poles in balanced regional growth.
Za uravnotežen razvoj urbanih in podeželskih območij spodbujajo dejavnosti na različnih področjih, kot so čista energija in ravnanje z odpadki, izboljšanje javnega prevoza in „čistih“ prometnih sistemov, skladna urbana struktura, ohranjanje arhitekturne dediščine, gospodarska in socialna obnova „problematičnih“ sosesk in storitve za okrepitev vloge mest kot središč regionalne rasti.
One of the principal conditions for creating cohesion in the European territory is to ensure complementarity and balance between urban and rural areas.
Eden bistvenih pogojev za ustvarjanje kohezije na evropskem ozemlju je zagotavljanje komplementarnosti in ravnotežja med urbanimi in podeželskimi območji.
To do this, the problems peculiar to these areas must be taken into account.
Pri tem je potrebno upoštevati specifične probleme teh območij.
Many rural areas are among the most dynamic territories in the Union.
Številna podeželska območja spadajo med najbolj dinamična območja Unije.
Many others suffer due to low population density (notably in mountainous areas), a lack of basic services and an inadequate labour market.
Spet druga so zapostavljena zaradi majhne gostote prebivalstva (predvsem v goratih predelih), pomanjkanja osnovnih storitev in neustreznega trga dela.
These difficulties are in great part linked to the decline of agriculture.
Te težave so v veliki meri povezane s propadom kmetijstva.
The latter still occupies most of the rural areas now and often constitutes an essential economic sector.
Slednje je še vedno vodilna gospodarska panoga na vseh podeželskih območjih.
To keep the countryside alive, it is important to help farmers to modernise their holdings, improve new production and marketing techniques and guarantee the quality of their products.
Za ohranitev življenja na podeželju je potrebno kmetom pomagati pri modernizaciji njihovih posestev, izboljšanju novih proizvodnih in oglaševalskih pristopov in zagotavljanju kakovosti njihovih izdelkov.
The competitiveness of rural areas also depends on diversifying creative forms of employment to make it possible to combat the rural exodus.
Konkurenčnost podeželskih območij je odvisna tudi od ustvarjanja novih in različnih delovnih mest, da bi preprečili odseljevanje.
Finally, it is important to develop the countryside as a space for recreation and green tourism, support the renovation of the villages, encourage agriculture and forestry in their function of maintaining landscapes and respect the environment and natural resources.
Podeželju je potrebno pomagati z obnovami vasi, z razvojem rekreacije in zelenega turizma, s spodbujanjem kmetijstva in gozdarstva v smislu ohranjanja pokrajine in spoštovanja okolja in naravnih virov.
A balance between cities and towns and the countryside involves, for example, assisting the access of inhabitants of rural areas to specialised services in urban centres and the access of town dwellers to the resources of the rural spaces.
Ravnotežje med mesti in podeželjem vključuje, na primer, pomoč pri dostopu prebivalcev podeželskih območij do specializiranih storitev v urbanih središčih in dostop prebivalcev mest do podeželja.
Medium-sized cities have a key role to play in charging the rural economy, but we must arrange for balanced growth to avoid the deterioration of the surrounding natural areas.
Srednje velika mesta so zelo pomembna za podeželsko gospodarstvo, zato je treba poskrbeti za uravnotežen razvoj in zavarovanje okoliških zelenih površin.
Fishing, in turn, provides a livelihood for numerous coastal areas even though it, too, is confronting difficulties.
Ribištvo je vsakdanji kruh prebivalcev številnih obalnih območij.
It must be restructured to ensure balance between the preservation and use of fishery resources.
Za zagotovitev ravnotežja med ohranjanjem in izkoriščanjem morskega življa je potrebno ustrezno prestrukturiranje ribiške dejavnosti.
The measures that will make it possible to revitalise the towns and villages that depend on fishing include more rational and selective techniques, modernisation of the fleet and ports, assistance to aquaculture and promotion of quality products.
Ukrepi, ki bodo omogočili obnovo ribiških mest in vasi obsegajo bolj racionalne in selektivne tehnike, modernizacijo flote in pristanišč ter pomoč pri marikulturi in promociji kakovostnih izdelkov.
Towns and cities offer the advantage of being centres of communication, commerce, innovation and culture.
Mala in velika mesta nudijo prednosti življenja zaradi komunikacij, trgovine, inovacij in kulture.
On the other hand, they are great consumers of energy and discard considerable quantities of waste and pollution.
Po drugi strani pa so veliki porabniki energije in proizvajajo ogromne količine odpadkov in škodljivih snovi.
They often have significant problems due to traffic congestion on their roads as well as disorderly development.
Pogosto imajo precejšnje probleme zaradi prometnih zastojev na njihovih cestah in neurejenega razvoja.
Numerous disadvantaged and rundown neighbourhoods concentrate acute social problems that foster urban violence.
V številnih zaostalih in na rob potisnjenih soseskah se kopičijo hudi socialni problemi, ki so vir kriminala in nasilja. Strukturni skladi

To acquire an even better idea of the Structural Funds, you will find summaries of the 2000–06 regional development programmes, accessible by countries and region, by category of programme or by theme, as well as numerous examples of projects co-financed by the European Union, by consulting the Inforegio site (http://www.europa.eu.int/comm/regional_policy/index_en.htm).
Če želite izvedeti več o strukturnih skladih, boste na spletni strani Inforegio našli povzetke programov za regionalni razvoj za obdobje 2000-2006, ki so razdeljeni po državah in regijah, kategoriji programa ali področju, kot tudi številne projekte, ki jih je sofinancirala Evropska unija:http://www.europa.eu.int/comm/regional_policy/index_en.htm
What results?
Kakšni so rezultati?
Recent reports on economic and social cohesion within the Europe of the Fifteen and various studies (2) have observed an appreciable reduction of the disparities among regions and even more among Member States.
Nedavna poročila o ekonomski in socialni koheziji znotraj petnajsterice in različne študije (*) so pokazale, da so se razlike med regijami in državami članicami precej zmanjšale.
They have also shown that this development has to a great extent been supported, on the one hand, by the process of European economic integration and, on the other, by the action of the Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund.
Te spremembe naj bi bile v veliki meri posledica procesa evropske gospodarske integracije ter ukrepov strukturnih in kohezijskega sklada.
In the least prosperous countries and regions
V manj razvitih državah in regijah
The Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund, which constitute only about 0.4 % of the GDP of the European Union, are concentrated on providing aid to the least prosperous groups in the Union.
Strukturni skladi in kohezijski sklad, ki sestavljajo samo 0,4 % BDP Evropske unije, so namenjeni pomoči najmanj razvitim skupinam v Uniji.
During the period 2000–06, the amounts transferred to the regions in Objective 1 come to 0.8 % of GDP in Spain and more than 2.5 % of GDP in Greece and Portugal.
V obdobju 20002006 so sredstva za regije v okviru Cilja 1 znašala okoli 0,8 % BDP Španije in več kot 2,5 % BDP Grčije in Portugalske.
More importantly, we believe that these transfers increase investment by about 3 % in Spain, 8 to 9 % in Greece and Portugal, 7 % in the Italian Mezzogiorno and 4 % in the new German Länder.
Menimo, da so ti transferji povečali investicije za okoli 3 % v Španiji, 8-9 % v Grčiji in na Portugalskem, 7 % na italijanskem jugu in 4 % v novih nemških deželah.
training of 8.15 million people and creation of some 800 000 jobs.
Španiji, na Portugalskem in v Grčiji.
Here too, the EUR 114 billion allocated by the Union to these programmes with a total cost of EUR 210 billion played a considerable role.
Tudi tu se je 114 milijard evrov, ki jih je Unija dodelila tem programom, oziroma skupno 210 milijard evrov izkazalo za izjemno dobro investicijo.
In the areas of Objective 2 undergoing restructuring
Investicije na področju izobraževanja so izboljšale kakovost poučevanja in usposabljanja, še posebej na Portugalskem.
The average unemployment rate in the areas of Objective 2 decreased by 4 % between 1995 and 2001 by comparison with a decline of 3 % in the Europe of the Fifteen.
Povprečna stopnja brezposelnosti na območjih Cilja 2 se je v obdobju 1995 in 2001 zmanjšala za 4 % v primerjavi s 3 % v petnajsterici.
An intensive policy of treating urban wastelands made it possible to reconvert 115 million square metres of ground to improve the environment and arrange new productive spaces.
Intenzivna politika upravljanja urbanih odlagališč je omogočila preoblikovanje 115 milijonov kvadratnih metrov odlagališč v uporabna zemljišča.
The Structural Funds assisted more than 300 000 SMEs and contributed to the creation of 300 000 jobs.
Strukturni skladi so nudili pomoč več kot 300 000 malim in srednjim podjetjem in prispevali k odprtju 300 000 novih delovnih mest.
They also provided a significant impulse to research and development, innovation, and the promotion of the information society.
Dali so tudi precejšen zagon raziskavam in razvoju, inovacijam in promociji informacijske družbe.

A result of momentum
Rezultat spodbude
The progress made by the disadvantaged regions is real but slow and will still take numerous years.
Napredek manj razvitih regij je precejšen, a počasen.
This is particularly true of the Europe of the Twenty-five.
To še posebej velja za EU s petindvajsetimi članicami.
But going beyond the numbers, the benefits from the regional policy are also reflected in the effect of the momentum often seen in workers due to the encouragement they receive from European cooperation, partnerships and networks, the exploration of innovative paths, development of local potential or essential efforts such as environmental protection and equal opportunity.
Če pustimo številke ob strani, se dobre strani regionalne politike odražajo tudi pri delavcih samih, predvsem zaradi spodbud, ki jih prejemajo iz naslova evropskega sodelovanja, partnerstva in mrež, odkrivanja inovativnih poti, razvoja lokalnega potenciala ali osnovnih ukrepov, kot so varovanje okolja in enake možnosti.
It is at times the very existence of a European regional policy that makes local actors work together.
Včasih prav evropska regionalna politika sproži sodelovanje lokalnih akterjev.
Some positive consequences in the other regions
Pozitivni rezultati v drugih regijah
The structural interventions also encouraged growth in commercial exchanges between the ‘cohesion countries’ and other parts of the Union — these have more than doubled in the course of the last decade — and closer integration.
Strukturni ukrepi so spodbudili tudi rast blagovne menjave med „kohezijskimi državami“ in drugimi deli Unije – število teh se je v zadnjem desetletju več kot podvojilo – ter večjo integracijo.
Empirical data suggest that, on average, about one quarter of the structural expenditures return to the rest of the Union in the form of increased importation of machines and equipment in particular.
Empirični podatki kažejo, da se v povprečju okoli četrtina strukturnih izdatkov povrne v druge dele Unije v obliki povečanega uvoza predvsem strojev in opreme.
This ‘take off’ is particularly great in the cases of Greece (42 % of expenditure) and Portugal (35 %).
Ta „povratek“ je še posebej velik v Grčiji (42 % izdatkov) in na Portugalskem (35 %).
Employment at the centre of attention
Zaposlenost v središču pozornosti
Despite these encouraging results, serious difficulties remain in diverse areas.
Navkljub spodbudnim rezultatom ostajajo na določenih območjih resni problemi.
In terms of research, for example, very great differences exist among Member States and regions with respect both to access to research institutions and to the number of patents filed.
Velike razlike med državami članicami in regijami so glede dostopa do raziskovalnih institucij in števila prijavljenih patentov.
But particular attention must be paid to social cohesion: while unemployment rates continue to cause concern in certain regions, a significant proportion of the population in the old and new Member States is at risk of falling below the poverty line, established at 60 % of the average national income.
Posebno pozornost je potrebno posvetiti socialni koheziji: medtem ko v določenih regijah povzroča skrb raven brezposelnosti (glej tabelo na strani 9), se lahko znaten del prebivalstva starih in novih držav članic znajde pod mejo revščine, ki znaša 60 % povprečnega nacionalnega dohodka.
