"Mr President, as rapporteur for the opinion of the Committee on Education and Culture I would like to recall that the EU and its Member States must refocus the delivery of the Europe 2020 objectives of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, paying more attention to social education and employment targets, as well as properly recognise the contribution of culture in reaching the so-called AAA for the development and well-being of individuals and societies.
The Commission has already acknowledged that austerity has increased inequalities, social injustice and poverty in Europe. Children are among the most impacted and remain the group at the highest risk of poverty and social exclusion. If this situation is not properly addressed through decisive political action we risk excluding a great part of the next generation.
I am a proud co-founder of the parliamentary Intergroup on Children’s Rights and I am proud that the European Semester report we are about to adopt includes a call to create a child guarantee in line with the ‘Investing in Children’ recommendations that will ensure that every child in Europe at risk of poverty, including refugees, has access to free health care, free education, free childcare, decent housing and adequate nutrition. Commission, do not let us down."@en1
