On May 8th, the European Reflection group published the 46 page report that examined the European Union´s present state and examined problems and challenges that will need to be overcome in order to maintain a strong presence within the world. May 8th, or Europe Day, and the 60th anniversary of the Schumann Declaration, this date proved to be fitting for the publication of the influential report.
Written in a straight-forward tone, and taking into account many aspects, the report provides a clear view of what the European Union needs to do. The group of 12 experts were contracted to do just that; assist the European Union more effectively anticipate and meet challenges in the longer term horizon of 2020 to 2030.
The Reflection Group write about a global economic crisis, states coming to the rescue of banks, climate change, downward pressure on wages, energy dependence and terrorism. Although it may scare the average European citizen, perhaps a report so truthful is what is needed to stimulate change.
The report states that the European Union must introduce measures, modify behaviour and correct dynamics if it wants to allow its institutions to really make life easier for its citizens, as well as restoring their enthusiasm for, and confidence in, a project which is going through one of its most difficult periods, recommended the ex-Spanish president Felipe González on behalf of the group.
The overall main message of the report is that the top priority must remain in creating jobs and growth. The full report can be found on the European Reflection´s Group website here.
The Innaxis Foundation & Research Institute is proud to have helped the European Reflection Group construct their report. We provided a secure, collaborative intranet that allowed each member as well as any persons involved in the initiative to document all meetings and progress in one organised database. We are also very grateful that they have thanked us publicly in their report.
