Putting the New Back In: The Green Deal for a World in Crisis (Copenhagen)
2022
Copenhagen, København 1704
GEF will host a session as part of the 6th Congress of the European Green Party in Copenhagen. This session will bring together voices and expertise from politics and civil society to lay bare the flaws and limitations of the current Green Deal and propose the pathways we need to explore to make a Green Deal worthy of its name.
About the event
In the face of multiple crises – geopolitical, climate and energy, but also the very erosion of Europe’s social fabric by its outdated economic model – what should the Greens bring to the table to ensure that the European Green Deal (EGD) switches to the next gear into a social EGD or EGD 2.0? When the time comes to act the Greens respond. Looking ahead to the 2030 and 2050 European project, how can Greens set the direction to overcome the challenges of a EGD that was designed in a pre-Covid and pre-conflict world, and one that fails to account for key dimensions of wellbeing or care?
