More than two thirds in each country think helping people in developing countries is important.
The survey includes topics such as tackling poverty in developing countries as one of the main priorities of the EU, the impact on EU citizens and the role of private companies in the sustainable development of developing countries.

This survey follows on from a series of urobarometer surveys on European development aid, although the questionnaire has been substantially changed since the last survey in 2004, that was conducted in the then 25 Member States of the EU. The fieldwork of this study was conducted between 14 February and 18 March 2007 in the 27 Member States of the European Union.
The report consists of three chapters dealing with the following themes:
• General perceptions of development aid: main motivations and target areas;
• Familiarity with policy initiatives: The Millennium Development Goals and the European Consensus on Development;
• The EU as a development aid actor: advantages, actions and decision making.

They show that development cooperation brings the European Union closer. Aid effectiveness calls for greater coherence and consensus among Member States.
One in two Europeans sees poverty as the greatest challenge faced by developing countries, placing it above the economic and food crisis. Europeans understand that beyond the economic slump, poverty is an essential structural crisis. This is in line with the European Union’s approach to challenges faced by partner countries.

One week before the UN High Level Meeting on the Millennium Development Goals, the survey shows that 89% of respondents consider development aid is important or very important. Two in three Europeans believe that the EU should honor, or even improve, on its promises to increase development aid to 0.7% of GNI by 2015, the deadline for achieving the Millennium Development Goal. This support, shared by a vast majority of citizens regardless of the nationality, has remained consistently high despite the financial crisis and the economic situation in Europe. In this context, three quarters (76%) of Europeans believe that there is added value in EU countries working together which contributes to avoid duplication and ensure aid effectiveness

With the Millennium Development Goals due to expire in 2015, a global debate is now underway about the framework which should replace them. This survey tests, among other things, the views of Europeans on the importance of development aid, on their personal commitment to helping the poor in the world and on their general awareness of extreme poverty.
It attempts to gauge the views of people in Europe in four main areas:
- Their general awareness of extreme poverty;
- The perceived importance of development aid and of EU aid in the context of the economic crisis;
- The commitment of EU citizens to tackling poverty;
- Their awareness of the UN’s Millennium Development Goals, and their views on future development policy priorities.

It was undertaken in all the European Union countries, between October 29 and December 10 1998, under the general co-ordination of INRA (EUROPE) - European Coordination Office, located in Brussels.
This report surveys Europeans' perception of issues relating with development aid It is subdivided into six sections which illustrate the importance attached by Europeans to this aid the perception which they have of its size, their wishes with regards to its development, the view which they have of the place that Europe, the United States and Japan take up towards Africa, South America and Asia and, eventually, the question of interdependences.

The survey will test Europeans views on these future challenges.

Europeans continue to regard helping the poor as a priority. 84% of respondents support development aid to help people across the world out of poverty. The majority of EU citizens (84%) also support a strong focus of EU aid on good governance and human rights in developing countries, a direction proposed by EU Development Commissioner Piebalgs in his recent policy proposal, 'Agenda for Change'. Europeans are also ready to actively participate in helping the poor — half of the EU citizens are willing to pay more for their daily shopping, if they know that this would benefit developing countries.

As the world is evolving, so, too, are the development challenges which the international community faces. This survey measures the attitudes of the European public towards development cooperation. It covers general perceptions of Europeans towards development aid, their views of the future of aid and on which areas and countries it should focus. The survey also analyses how private companies operating in developing countries are perceived and the willingness of individuals to take action to help people in those countries.
The European Commission’s Directorate-General Development and Cooperation - EuropeAid commissioned this survey to measure the attitudes of the European public towards development cooperation. The main objectives of this survey were to:
Measure the general perceptions of Europeans towards development aid and any changes in opinion since the survey was last run (in September 2011);
Analyse Europeans’ views of the future of development aid and which areas and countries aid should focus on;
Understand the perception of private companies operating in developing countries;
Analyse the willingness of individuals to take action to help those in developing countries;
Understand the level of knowledge about how local country and EU development aid is spent.

Life expectancy in the EU, which is a reflection of well-being, is among the highest in the world. Of the 50 countries in the world with the highest life expectancy in 2012, 21 were EU Member States, 18 of which had a higher life expectancy than the US. Differences between regions in the EU are marked. Life expectancy at birth is less than 74 in many partsof Bulgaria as well as in Latvia and Lithuania, while overall across the EU it is over 80 years in two out of every three regions. In 17 regions in Spain, France and Italy, it is 83 years or more.

The unemployment rate in the EU-28 fell from 9.3% in 2004 to 7.1% in 2008. Between 2008 and 2013, however, it rose to 10.9%, higher than at any time for which data are available (since 2000). In the EU-15, unemployment was 11.1% in 2013, which is also higher than at any time for which comparable figures are available.

A well-educated workforce is key to prosperity. There tends to be a strong correlation between the educational attainment of a region’s workforce and median earnings in the region. In addition, attaining a relatively high education level tends to mean less risk of being unemployed. The Europe 2020 strategy is aimed at increasing the share of the population aged 30–34 with tertiary education to 40% by 2020. Member States have set national targets for this varying from 26% (in Italy) to 60% (in Ireland). In the EU-27, the share increased significantly between 2008 and 2012 from 31% to 36%, suggesting that the Union-wide target of 40% should be achievable without much difficulty.

The 2008 crisis has tended to widen disparities in employment rates and in 2013, rates were 11 percentage points higher in more developed regions than in less developed ones (72% and 61%). Under the Europe 2020 strategy, Member States have set national targets for the employment rate which are broadly consistent with the 75% overall target being achieved by 2020. These vary from 62.9% in Malta to 80% in Denmark and Sweden.

Until the crisis in 2008, disparities between regional economies in the EU were shrinking. In 2000, average GDP per head in the most developed 20% of regions was about 3.5 higher than that in the least developed 20%. By 2008, the difference had narrowed to 2.8 times. This was mainly due to the regions with the lowest GDP per head growing faster than average and catching up with the more prosperous ones (a process known as Beta convergence). However, the crisis seems to have brought this tendency to an end and between 2008 and 2011, regional disparities widened (the coefficient of variation increased slightly).
