lpv:translated text	"In 1992, the UN declared 17 October the International Day of Poverty. In 2000, the international organisation committed to halving the rate of people living in severe poverty within 15 years. Two thirds of this period have already elapsed. The figures are alarming and we are behind the indicators, at a time when demand and expectations are very high. Seventy-three percent of the EN population sees the main problem in the increasingly widespread poverty in their countries. Eighty-nine percent of the citizens want urgent action to tackle the problem, and 74% expect the EU to play an important role in eradicating poverty. On the other hand, 6 million EU citizens have lost their jobs in the past two years, and child poverty is on the increase. While we know and often refer to the fact that employment is the most efficient means of combating poverty, the model of the social Europe identified by Jean Monnet has been overshadowed by economic interests. The aim of economic development is to ensure the well-being of citizens, but it is worth nothing without efficient social measures and a drastic reduction of the current poverty level. It is obvious that social policy is primarily the task and responsibility of Member States. However, I still think that we have to find answers to the most urgent issues jointly, by an increased use of the open coordination method and by facilitating the exchange of best practices."@en1
