The Romanian National Network of Anti-Poverty - Social Inclusion - RENASIS (EAPN Romania) organized from 5th to 11 July 2010 a series of conferences and debates in Bucharest and in all the country.

- EAPN Romania displayed the shared messages.
In Bacau the opening conference has shown that the poor situation changed dramatically in the last two weeks of flooding effects and recalculating the number of people in need is a priority. The Bucharest debates into concrete actions need involvement, consultation and direct participation of people living in poverty along with policy makers was defined as a primary emergency.
These issues and the fight to reduce poverty in Romania and the EU in 2020 were discussed with our guests from Romania (around 100 participants) as well as with our international guest speakers: Mr. Ludo Horemans - President EAPN (European Anti-Poverty Network - European Anti-Poverty Network), Mr. Luigi Leonori - President of European SMEs, Mr. Alexandar Nikolov - Bulgaria EAPN, Mrs. Miriam Pikar – Caritas Europa, Mr. PhD.
