The future of European Union development policy will involve the immediate restructuring of development policy to make it more consistent, focused on poverty eradication and achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), on respect for human rights, and on establishing synergies between the various political actors and projects. Although, in the last decade, and above all since the adoption of the European Consensus on Development, the EU has doubled public development aid and improved the ways aid is delivered, I share the concerns expressed in this report that Parliament has been putting forward: in particular, meeting the financial commitments already made, the consistency of development policy, regular monitoring and assessment, and the projects and challenges resulting from the creation of the European External Action Service (EEAS).
I do not wish to fail to stress that, although economic growth is a crucial factor in development, it is not exclusively in poverty eradication and promotion of social cohesion. Investment in democracy; in human development, such as education, health, freedom of expression, and so on; in food security; and in climate change is key to the success of a genuine policy of sustainable development."@en1
