"Demographic change, as underlined in the Fifth Report on cohesion, poses one of the central challenges for the future of the European socio-economic system, and it is a challenge with a wide territorial context that cuts deeply into the management of services and infrastructures.
Without in any way detracting from the task of individual Member States, this challenge, which could also become an opportunity, directly implicates European institutions and, in particular, regional development policies. These policies are characterised by different strategies that are adapted to guaranteeing the demands and needs, respectively, of areas with populations on the rise and in decline, as well as the varying needs of urban and rural areas.
In response to these challenges, European Funds (both the ERDF and the ESF) can be used comprehensively to ensure that equilibrium is restored to demands and, to this end, we should welcome the prospect of also making use of specific demographic indicators to assign European funds as well as to redistribute finances at the level of individual States.
I express my vote in favour in the hope for policies capable of correlating the effects of demographic change with the fight against old and new poverty."@en1
