"The present economic and financial crisis is a cause of fear that poverty and social exclusion will be exacerbated a little throughout Europe. Unfortunately, the ambitious objectives set out by the Lisbon strategy were hard to achieve. Given the multiple problems and their scale, there is a need for increased European coordination in this area if we are to fulfil the ambition of the Europe 2020 strategy of pulling 20 million people out of poverty. Beyond announcing grand objectives and declarations that lack realism, the European Union should not lose sight of the fact that it exists for the people. Any initiatives that it undertakes against poverty and social exclusion should bear in mind the issue of each human being’s dignity, and should not confuse the establishment of large bureaucratic structures with actually helping those most in need. While the multidisciplinarity of the problem makes it advisable to give it a multidisciplinary response, the programme’s sensitivity makes it advisable not to lose sight of the fundamentals of each human being, bearing in mind the financial difficulties that the Member States are experiencing and the realism that this limitation imposes."@en1
