"In Europe alone, over 80 million people are at risk of poverty and 25% of them, or 20 million, are children. In the current context of the crisis, the circumstances of these people and, in particular, those categories that are most vulnerable, such as children, the disabled and the elderly, can only deteriorate further. The Union should therefore adopt a concrete and immediate course of action to realise the objective of lifting at least 20 million people out of poverty by 2020. In order to be able to respond effectively to the needs of the population, Member States and European and national institutions must be coordinated.
Above all, it is important to take steps to prevent factors which can contribute to the progress of the state of poverty. The Union should make greater investments in inclusive education systems to tackle the phenomenon of early school leaving, in particular among disabled children, of whom less than half are accepted onto courses of higher education, and to offer accessible and high-quality services, above all for the elderly, but also for working women and mothers."@en1
