"In the context of the very broadest aims of the Europe 2020 strategy, the European platform against poverty and social exclusion should be thought of in view of the unique characteristics of what is an intrinsically complex, multifaceted and multiform phenomenon which, as the economic crisis has made itself felt, has taken on even more striking and worrying dimensions.
The gradual increase in the number of areas affected, or at risk of being dragged into a state of poverty or ‘severe material deprivation’ as a result of the financial crisis, means that we have to strengthen and differentiate our responses. Vice-versa, we are watching with concern at the distortive effects which, in this sector too, may be caused by the reckless decision not to exclude investment from Stability Pact funds.
Even in a context of scarce financial resources, the platform offers a positive message that is in line with the need to develop specific, Europe-wide, socio-economic initiatives, moving beyond mere emergency action or temporary support and thus heralding a genuine reversal of this trend.
Specifically, it highlights the importance of launching a much sought-after global initiative to bring in a guaranteed minimum income rule, which – if it can be adjusted to and made compatible with economic development – will help reduce and prevent poverty and social exclusion."@en1
