During the forum activists showed their interest in a number of round-table discussions, one of which was named ‘EU in the world.’

On development, Laura Sullivan said that aid must be “genuine” and “effective.” EU aid policy must take into account the positions of NGOs and trade unions. Also on the subject of development, Emmanuel Drouin expressed the urgent need for a European policy on Africa in order for development to be socially just and democratic.

Barbara Revelli highlighted the importance of the Mediterranean in external relations and asked what contribution the EU can give to the Mediterranean Union. This, of course, is of particular relevance issue in light of French President Sarkozy’s recent initiatives in creating such a union.

What are your views on EU-Mediterranean relations? Is there a need for a Union of the Mediterranean or should the PES discourage such a policy? Please have your say on Yourspace.

I agree with Laura Sullivan that we need better dialogue with NGO and trade unions. EU policy in the world must be effective and efficient and that are the two aspects that there are lacking. Dialogue with organised NGO can help the EU to make there policy more effective. This way Europe can be a real player in the world. I was also in this seminar and I also liked that the debate of disarmed, and migration got started. These issues are also very important if we think of Europe in the world.
