"The EU dedicated 2010 to the problem of poverty and social exclusion, so as to demonstrate the institutions’ commitment to eradicating poverty, as set out in the Lisbon strategy and the Europe 2020 strategy initiative, and the European platform against poverty and social exclusion. This platform will provide the Member States with a multi-dimensional approach and a ‘framework for action’, with a view to achieving its objectives and to lifting 20 million people out of poverty by 2020.
The EU has more than 80 million people at risk of poverty, including 20 million children and 8% of the working population. The multiplying effects of this problem require an approach that is integrated but is simultaneously individualised, since poverty and social exclusion express themselves in various ways. I think it is important to use the open method of coordination, so that monitoring of the targets achieved in this struggle in the Member States can be regulated and the sharing of best practices can be enabled. Another point that I should like to stress is the appearance of what is known as hidden poverty, which is affecting the middle classes in European countries."@en1
