I voted in favour of the report by Mr Kaczmarek.
The confirmation of a modernised EU development policy must be supported, particularly at a time of crisis, as investments in poverty reduction and eradication could create significant advantages for the EU in terms of investments and new jobs. Therefore it is necessary to implement and increase the impact of development policies that aim to achieve the ambitious objective of poverty reduction, a key objective for EU external action.
In this regard, efforts need to be concentrated on the concept of ‘democratic ownership’, a key approach that involves investments promoting good governance, greater democracy and human rights, and the fight against corruption. The development assistance process should see more active involvement on the part of the private sector, in particular of small and medium-sized enterprises, which are widespread and vital for sustainable development and for achieving the objectives that have been set.
Finally, the focus should be on industrial development, which has tremendous transformative potential for national economies and, unlike agricultural exports or natural resources extraction, is likely to offer enhanced scope for long-term productivity growth."@en1
