"EU-Latin America cooperation is important in a number of areas, in particular development cooperation. It is a region in which 180 million people live below the poverty line and which has the highest inequality levels in the world. In spite of progress made, poverty rates remain very high, and insufficient progress has been made towards achieving six of the Millennium Development Goals, especially with regard to poverty, job creation and social cohesion. We need to rethink and act more efficiently within the framework of our Latin American development cooperation policy, by adopting a different approach to each country, in articulation with our trade policy, that takes into account its specific nature, whilst making available resources through the development cooperation instrument to improve living conditions, to promote equality and decent work, to reform the judicial system, to combat violence and crime, and to conserve biodiversity and sustainable development in the region. In order to achieve these objectives, I consider it essential to involve fully national authorities, regional blocs and civil society in setting priorities and in monitoring the programmes."@en1
