Poverty

The Commission has published a report ’on the implementation, results and overall assessment of the 2010 European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion’ (COM(2012) 107). It concludes that the EY2010 ’succeeded in injecting new momentum into the fight against poverty and social exclusion in Europe’ and that it ’highlighted the need for political commitment at the highest level and for reaching out to people not traditionally involved in social inclusion policies.’
