Speaking ahead of her visit, Commissioner Hübner said: "In these times of economic slowdown, cities are important engines for growth. I am therefore delighted that Wielkopolskie is the first region in Europe which has decided to implement the new tool we offer for urban renewal. Cohesion Policy is a powerful instrument of stability and provides a secure source of financing. Investing in urban revitalisation can boost demand and help to create new jobs.”

Danuta Hübner, European Commissioner for Regional Policy, and Fabrizio Barca, Director General in Italy's Ministry of Finance and Economy, today present the findings of the "Barca Report - an agenda for a reformed Cohesion Policy". The report, requested by the Commissioner, sets out the rationale for a European Cohesion Policy and puts forward recommendations for a comprehensive reform based on ten "pillars". Doctor Barca's proposals have been developed in full independence from the Commission, with input from academic experts and Member State officials following a series of meetings held throughout 2008. The report is part of a thorough reflection process on the future policy post-2013, which began in 2007 with the Fourth Report on Economic and Social Cohesion.

Key question for all European regions concerning the newest EC’s initiative of the Eastern Partnership is apparently its regional dimesion. Will there be enough room for enhanced co-operation with eastern neighbours of the EU? This was also a key issue of the morning seminar held in Wielkopolska Region’ s Brussels Office in close co-operation with the Assembly of the European Regions.
Our guest, Mr. Robert Soltyk representing DG RELEX of the European Commission, reported that experience made by European regions in the field of cohesion policy would be a vital lesson for supporting economic and social development in Eastern partner countries.

Dear Partner Regions, Dear Friends!
These Open Days 2009 will be the fifth ones for Wielkopolska Region (Poland) . We would like to invite all regions equally interested in organising a successful event on:
“Achieving results, looking ahead: EU cohesion policy’s evaluation and future prospects”
to express
your interest for co-operation.
It seems that this will not be the most popular topic among the regions but we perecive it as its strenght rather than weakness. This should be a perfect opportunity to share our regional success and best practises in the field of cohesion policy with the whole Europe.
Since there are no threats and apparently the fast SWOT analysis is looking fine enough, maybe you will feel encouraged to respond our invitation to:

We are looking forward to your messages!
