European Development Days
European Development Days 2008 is the European
Commission's major event. Each year the EDD hosts participants from
every continent, representing over 1200 organisations in the
development community.
This year’s European Development Days (EDD) proved a “resounding
success” and attracted more than 5,000 participants. Louis Michel,
European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid, reminded
participants that everyone who attended this third EDD are united in
the belief that “we can change something; we do have the power to bring
about change.”
EDD 2008 followed on the heels of the G-20 economic summit in
Washington. Although African leaders were not at the table, which was
decried frequently throughout EDD, speakers praised world leaders for
reaching consensus on a principle that opens the door for a
reconstruction of global governance and recognizes the importance of
development in the worldwide financial framework.
