This is a critical moment for global social and economic development. CONCORD is asking the European Union to take decisive action, not just to arrest the descent but to address the basic problems of distorted development that underpin these crises in the first place. There are some appropriate short-term responses, but that these must be accompanied by a search for fundamental changes in our economic and development models.
