Paragraph 2
2. Emphasises that, although the need to revitalise economic activity is a prerequisite for any solution involving the creation of sustainable and lasting employment, this situation is caused by structural issues arising from education and employment policy which need to be corrected, and that this calls for a new generation of more attractive teaching strategies, with better regional insertion, to promote the use of more efficient strategies for transition to active life (with strong links between school and work) and the creation of more secure career paths; considers it important, in addition to these factors, to define the priority areas for the development of each region and to shape or create entrepreneurship programmes for young people in these areas;
