Glossary good practice, bearing in mind the fact that social protection must be given high importance. It is a model aiming to enhance flexibility of labour markets, work organisation and social security. The EU is investigating flexicurity as a possible future European model, mainly because it has contributed to almost full employment in Denmark with fewer than 4% of the population unemployed, according to the OECD. An unemployed person in Denmark is required to constantly seek employment or further education in order to receive full benefits. EU Sustainable Development Strategy(EU SDS)/ Gothenburg Strategy The EU Sustainable Development Strategy(EU SDS) also known as the Gothenburg Strategy is an action and development plan adopted at the Gothenburg Summit in June 2001. This strategy adds a third dimension- the environment- to the twin social and economic pillars EU leaders identified at the Lisbon European Council Summit in March 2000 as key factors in the creation of an internationally competitive and socially inclusive European Union. In line with this, the EU SDS is based on the idea that in the longer run economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection must go hand in hand. This entails a process in which a wide variety of actors, including European and national policy makers, the business community and civil society, bear a shared responsibility. The EU SDS has important implications for policy­making at all levels. It requires a truly integrated, coherent and balanced approach, which maximises synergies between relevant economic, social and environmental aspects where possible, and mitigates trade-offs where these are unavoidable. Following the review of the EU SDS launched by the Commission in 2004 and on the basis of contributions from the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and others, in June 2006 the European Council adopted an ambitious and comprehensive revised EU SDS for an enlarged European Union. This document reaffirms the need for global solidarity and recognises the importance of working with partners outside the EU, including those rapidly developing countries which will have a significant impact on global sustainable development. The overall aim of the revised EU SDS is to support and promote actions to enable the EU to achieve continuous improvement of quality of life for both current and future generations, through the creation of sustainable communities able to manage and use resources efficiently and to tap the ecological and social innovation potential of the economy, ensuring prosperity, environmental protection and social cohesion. 177
