“It would be an unbearable truth if we can not from the conclusions of this Round Table and all the other actions connected to the EU Inclusion strategy, develop proposals and actions that are capable of reversing the trend towards growing levels of poverty and inequality in our societies”, declared Fintan Farrell, the EAPN Director, acting as general Rapporteur of the 7th European Round Table on Poverty and Social exclusion which took place in Marseilles on 15-16 October.
