"As a member of the Committee on Culture and Education, I voted in favour of Parliament’s resolution on a proposal for a decision of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a European Union action for the European Heritage Label. The idea of establishing an EU label is important from the point of view of making citizens more aware of the European Union’s history and cultural heritage, and of building a European identity and links between countries.
By selecting sites in the individual Member States which have applied to be granted the EU’s European Heritage Label, we will make people more aware of the fact that Europe’s history affects all of us, regardless of where we live, our language or our culture. Changing the European Heritage Label into an EU initiative will help make it more credible, visible and prestigious. This, in turn, may translate into economic and social benefits
by making the sites awarded the label more attractive to tourists. Selecting sites to be awarded the label will also help to increase the younger generation’s interest in, and knowledge of, the ideas and peoples of Europe, and, in so doing, will bring Europe’s inhabitants closer together."@en1
