Geopolitics of a Post-Growth Europe (Lisbon)
14 December 2024 - 2:30 pm - 4:00 pm
About the event
GEF is hosting a launch event in Lisbon to celebrate the Portuguese edition of our publication “Geopolitics of a Post-Growth Europe. The event will include an expert roundtable to dive into the policy dilemmas and potential synergies between Europe’s ecological and geopolitical security. These sessions will gather green activists, experts, researchers, policymakers, and civil society representatives, with contributions from various parts of Europe.
Project background:
In the project “Geopolitics of a Post-Growth Europe”, the Green European Foundation and its partners explored the tensions between degrowth/post-growth and geopolitics. The project worked to ignite a conversation between critics of economic growth and progressive thinkers on foreign and security policy, who now often operate in separate circuits. Find out more about the project and its findings at geopoliticspostgrowth.eu.
