EU 2020 Goals
SMART, SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE GROWTH
The Europe 2020 strategy is about delivering growth that is: smart, through more effective investments in
education, research and innovation; sustainable, thanks to a decisive move towards a low-carbon economy;
and inclusive, with a strong emphasis on job creation and poverty reduction. The strategy is focused on five
ambitious goals in the areas of employment, innovation, education, poverty reduction and climate/energy.
The 5 targets for the EU in 2020:
• 1. Employment
–
•
2. R&D / innovation
–
•
greenhouse gas emissions 20% (or even 30%, if the conditions are right)lower than 1990
20% of energy from renewables
20% increase in energy efficiency
4. Education
–
–
•
3% of the EU's GDP (public and private combined) to be invested in R&D/innovation
3. Climate change / energy
–
–
–
•
75% of the 20-64 year-olds to be employed
Reducing school drop-out rates below 10%
at least 40% of 30-34–year-olds completing third level education
5. Poverty / social exclusion

at least 20 million fewer people in or at risk of poverty and social exclusion
EU 2020 Goals
Features of the targets
• They give an overall view of where the EU should be on key
parameters by 2020.
• They are translated into national targets [see link] so that each
Member State can check its own progress towards these goals.
• They do not imply burden-sharing – they are common goals, to be
pursued through a mix of national and EU action.
• They are interrelated and mutually reinforcing:
– educational improvements help employability and reduce poverty
– more R&D/innovation in the economy, combined with more efficient
resources, makes us more competitive and creates jobs
– investing in cleaner technologies combats climate change while
creating new business/job opportunities.
EU Flagships supporting
Flagship initiatives
• Europe has identified new engines to boost growth and jobs. These areas are addressed by 7
flagship initiatives.
•
Within each initiative, both the EU and national authorities have to coordinate their efforts so they
are mutually reinforcing. Most of these initiatives have been presented by the Commission in 2010.
