SUMMARY:Green Recovery: Reflecting on the political landscape and experience from neighbouring countries
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThis workshop brings together speakers from Slovenia\, Croatia and Austria to share experiences on environmental struggles and green policy building in post – Corona era. The workshop aims to identify the commonalities and differences between participating countries\, and to discover shared practices and future approaches in environmental activism. The participants will try to establish both in-country and regional collaboration for environmental struggles. \nContext\nSlovenian environmental activists have achieved some major successes in mobilising to protect the environment in the face of harmful legislation and corporate interests. One of the major achievements was the recent successful referendum on water\, which prevented the adoption of harmful legislation. However\, such environmental struggles are also taking their toll on individual activists and their institutions. Activists often feel alone\, they feel lack of public support and no partnership with political subjects. This workshop will try to bring activists together and help them find common approaches and enrich the collaboration within Slovenia but also with activists in Austria and Croatia. Additionally\, the workshop will provide insight into political experiences of Greens and discuss how a collaboration between activists and politicians could be established to achieve environmental goals and Green Recovery goals in Slovenia and in the European Union more widely. \n\n  \nGuests speakers:\n\nOlga Voglauer\, European Green Party.\nJelena Miloš or Iva Ivšić\, BRID Baze za radničku inicijativu i demokratizaciju (tbc).\nUrša Zgojznik\, Ekologi brez meja\nUroš Macerl\, Ekokrog.\n\n\n\n  \nProgramme\n15.00 -15.45: Introduction \nUrša Zgojznik: Future Slovenian environmental struggles and Green Recovery \nUroš Macerl: How to win an environmental referendum? \n  \n15.45 -16.00: Coffee break \n  \n16:00 -17:00: Presentations of international speakers \nOlga Voglauer: How can activists and politicians collaborate in environmental struggles? \nJelena Miloš or Iva Ivšić: How to establish cross-border collaboration between environmental activists? \n  \n17:00-17:15: Coffee break \n  \n17:15 -18:30: Workshop \nGroup work of participants on ideas: How to establish cross-border collaboration between environmental activists? \n  \nPracticalities\nAudience: This workshop will take place in person.

SUMMARY:Women* in Power
DESCRIPTION:About the Event:\nThis international conference brings together speakers from all over Turkey and Europe to highlight commonalities and explore the solidarity and struggles of gender studies in green policy. It is the second edition of the conference\, and just like last year\, we aim to bring together activists\, politicians\, and academics to share their thoughts and build a stronger movement for gender and environmental justice. \nContext: \nIn October\, Turkey finally ratified the Paris Climate Agreement\, asserting its claim to be an important part of the global climate struggle. However\, in July its government left the Istanbul Convention against violence against women\, despite being one of the first signatories and in defiance of countless protests\, actions\, and calls throughout the year.\nThe usurpation of the rights of nature on one hand and gender-based violence\, discrimination\, and inequality on the other are crimes that occur every day in Turkey. But faced with worsening conditions\, the climate\, ecology\, women’s and LGBTQI+ movements have also started to grow. We witness their developing and spreading resistance against male domination\, which imposes itself as the only reality\, sees nature and people as resources and exploits them.\nGreen thought emphasizes the importance of combining climate and ecological struggles\, women and LGBTQI+ struggles\, for a better and liveable world where the rights of all people\, living things and nature are protected. We believe in the need to emerge and the globality of solidarity – issues with which this conference seeks to engage. The international conference forms the closing of a year-long project on centralising gender equality and feminist perspectives in green policies.  \n\nProgramme and Speakers\n13:00 – 13:10 Opening  \n\nModeration: Bahar Topçu Board of Green Thought Association & Climate Activist \n\nSession 1: International Solidarity  \n\n13:15-13:30 Faika El-Nagashi – Austrian Greens Member of Parliament \n\n\n13:30-13:45 Anuna De Wever – Belgian climate activist  \n13:45-13:55 Q&A \n\nSession 2: Debates on Gender and Climate Justice  \n\n14:00-14:20 V’cenza Cirefice – Activist / Researcher\, Environmental Justice Network Ireland \n14:20-14:40 Özge Doruk Activist /Researcher – Report Presentation On the Issue of Climate Justice: Field Notes from Bozkurt\n14:40-15:00 Kristen Biehl & Özlem Aslan Researchers (Sabancı University SuGender) \n15:00-15:15 Q&A \n\n\nPracticalities: \nAudience: This conference will take place online and is open to the general public.  \nDate: Saturday\, 11 December (exact times to be announced)  \nLanguage: Turkish and English\, with simultaneous translation  \nRegistration: Please register in advance via this link.   \n  \n\nThis online conference is organised by the Green European Foundation\, with the support of Green Thought Association and the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.  \n

SUMMARY:Energy to the citizens
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nWith this session\, we aim to tackle the need for a more democratic and inclusive society. To do so\, we will examine the state of democracy in the EU and candidate countries with the economic alternatives proposals that take into account the climate change emergency. \n\nContext\nThe North Macedonian region and its surroundings currently suffer an energy crisis\, as the country heavily relies on coal and other fossil fuels. During this event\, we will elaborate on the European experiences in the energy sector and stimulate positive change in North Macedonia and the region. \nGEF and Sunrise are pioneers on the topic of Energy Democracy in North Macedonia and will continue raising awareness and discussing energy transformation towards a participatory\, inclusive and decentralized green economy.

SUMMARY:Green Central-Eastern Network
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nThe Green European Foundation is organising an event tailored to those who have the long-term goal to ignite political change in their countries and advance the green movement locally. Specifically\, the event will gather representatives of national political foundations and equivalent organisations from Eastern European countries where GEF has established partners as well as representatives from organisations that have a potential to help in building sustainable green movements. Gender balance will be observed as a key element in moderation and debate.  We are looking at a balanced participation of both EU and non-EU countries \nObjectives \n\nConnect: we will foster exchanges on who are the agents of change in the region\, and how they work; \n\n\nLearn: we will address the challenges green organisations are facing\, as well as their successes. We’ll have honest conversations on what works and what doesn’t.  \n\n\nBuild: building on the two objectives above\, we will identify what the network can achieve as a community\, and what the next steps should be.  \n\nContext\nThe Green European Foundation is committed to contribute to the advancement of the “green wave” in Central and Eastern Europe\, in coordination with the efforts made by the other members of the European Green family. We want to reinforce and enlarge the green political movement and its impact in those regions of Europe.   \nIn this context\, we are launching a Green Central-Eastern Network\, aiming at facilitating a network of green political foundations and equivalent organisations from Central and Eastern Europe and allow them a space to co-create a framework of functioning; building an understanding of how shared history\, political context\, and topics can create opportunities for common work; Inspiring action by sharing successes and strategies for achieving them and methods of combatting common threats and challenges.This online event will serve as a preliminary work assessing the needs and strengths of the organisations in the region. The input gathered will impulse the networking event in Vienna next year. \nPracticalities\nDate: 10 December 2021 \nLocation: Zoom \nIn case of questions\, please contact luka.gudek@gef.eu  \n  \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Through Value to Wealth: Sustainable Tourism in Serbia
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nAlthough tourism is well known for being an industry that stimulates the economy and the creation of new jobs\, experience shows that its traditional way of development is detrimental to the environment\, and therefore – to all of us. The jobs generated by mass tourism today are mostly seasonal and precarious\, while much of the revenue goes to a few big companies and hotel chains. In addition\, an unreasonable increase of tourists puts a lot of pressure on natural resources and leads to various negative impacts on the environment. \nOn the other hand\, trends show that tourists are increasingly opting to visit preserved natural areas where they can enjoy sports and recreation. In addition\, the Covid-19 pandemic has significantly affected the way we travel\, and it is noticeable that people\, instead of mass\, are increasingly choosing small-scale tourism\, which means less social interaction and more enjoyment of nature. \nWe are witnessing a rise in awareness of green issues in the entire world\, but also in Serbia and the region. Citizens becoming conscious of their own need for living in a healthy and clean environment. That is why they are getting involved in the decision-making process\, demanding to a sustainable development of the environment. \nSerbia is a country rich in natural beauty and has huge tourist potential. In this webinar\, speakers will discuss how we can better use it for the development of sustainable tourism\, drawing lessons and exchanging as well with other emerging tourist destinations in the region. \nContext\nWhat is the future of tourism? Through the project “Fair and carbon-free tourism\,” GEF and its partner organisations across Europe (Austria\, Croatia\, Northern Macedonia\, Spain\, and Serbia)\, is researching ways in which tourism\, as an industry\, can be transformed to be more environmentally and socially sustainable – a tourism that will not only contribute to the development of the local community and economy but also at the same time preserve and regenerate natural resources for future generations.  \nSpeakers\n Milica Kočović – an independent researcher who\, through her specific prism\, considers the potential for the development of sustainable tourism on Mt. Balkans (Stara Planina)  \nKatarina Lević – a researcher from Polekol who researched spa tourism in Serbia  \nPredrag Momčilović – a researcher from Platform Zajedničko who worked on sustainable tourism in the Serbian capital Belgrade  \nStevche Dechev – from Sunrise\, who will present examples of managing nature and cultural good in Ohrid\, North Macedonia  \n\nPracticalities\nDate: Thursday\, December 9th (18:00 CET)  \nLanguage: Serbian  \nRegistration: Please register for the webinar in advance via this link.  \n\nThis webinar is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of PolEkol and the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Dare to Care: Ecofeminism as Inspiration
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThe global Covid crisis brought healthcare into the spotlight. Care\, however\, extends beyond the strictly medical in that it includes everything we do to preserve and restore the world. The erosion of the welfare state\, the plundering of the Global South and the crossing of planetary boundaries is alarming. There is also the link between the exploitation of people and of nature. Imagine we found the courage to truly care for all people and other earthlings\, for our unique living world.   \nInspired by ecofeminists worldwide\, the authors wonder: can care be a new starting point\, based on connectedness and generosity? Can care\, as an emancipatory principle\, underpin politics and economics?  \nIn this webinar\, we will dive deeper into the content of the essay\, followed by a Q&A with the audience. \n  \nContext\nThis is the last of four public webinars as part of the project “Feminists in the Climate Movement\,” organised by GEF with the support of Visio\, Green Economics Institute\, Oikos\, and Fundacja Strefa Zieleni. With a closed training programme for selected Feminist Climate Ambassadors as well as a series of public events\, the project seeks to build capacity among (potential) climate leaders\, while highlighting the gendered aspects and impacts of the climate crisis to a broader audience.    \n\n\nPracticalities\nDate and time: Monday\, December 6th from 19:30 to 21:00 CET.   \nAudience: This webinar will take place in English and is open to the general public.   \nRegistration: Please register in advance via this link.    \n  \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation\, with the support of Oikos and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Feminists in the Climate Movement at the Green Hub
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nWomen and minorities are more likely to be affected by the consequences of climate change but are also the key people who can bring about change in their communities. Countries with more diversity in decision-making have more ambitious climate policies. But diversity doesn’t just magically happen  – it must be encouraged. Women and non-binary people need specific training to make change in traditionally male-dominated places of decision-making.  \nThis year\, GEF has selected and supported a group of twenty Feminist Climate Ambassadors to do just that. We have also run a series of public events on the nexus of gender equality and the climate crisis\, and are exploring ecofeminism and ethics of care as a potential framework for societal change. Our Green Hub programming continues this work!  \nProgramme:  \n11:00 – 12:30 Ecofeminist Roundtable: Conversation Circle on Ecofeminist Experience\, with the support of Oikos  \nAs individual selves\, we are part of a web of relationships with both human and non-human others. Within ethics of care\, we maintain nourishing and caring relationships.   \nIn this workshop\, we discuss what this entails for us\, and we put ethics of care into practice by creating a safe space for us to connect\, tell our stories and listen to each other. There is space for self-expression and deep listening.  \nThe session will be completed by a moment of body-care (through breath work and movement). Care for our physical bodies supports the connection to ourselves and helps to solidify the connections between self and the self\, self and the fellow participant\, and ultimately towards self and the world we live in.  \n  \n15:00 – 17:00 Rethinking People\, Planet and Profit with Feminist Climate Ambassadors\, with the support of Visio  \nJoin GEF’s Feminist Climate Ambassadors to renew your thinking about the three dimensions of sustainability. The ambassadors and international experts offer you a new feminist lenses and facilitate constructive conversation on environmentalism\, economy and climate policy & security.  \n\nWith our ambassadors Barbora Majdisova (Poland & Sweden)\, Louisa Mandt (Germany)\, Gabrielle Sousa e. Hiltmann (Brazil & Germany)\, Ana Díaz Vidal (Spain & Scotland)\, Claire Woods (Ireland)\, and Dilara Asardag (Cyprus & Finland). \nAdditional speakers to be announced! \n\n  \n17:00 – 19:00 Training for Feminists in the Climate Movement: How COP Works\, with the support of Green Economics Institute  \nThis is a workshop to familiarise researchers\, activists\, and policy makers as to how they can make a difference and contribute to COP26 dialogues\, with a particular eye on issues like gender equality and diverse decision making. We will start with introducing how the treaty works\, what negotiations look like\, and how different actors exert their influence. This is followed by an interactive workshop exploring participants’ own reflections and inputs.  \n\nWith Michelle Gale (Gender Progress); Jean Lambert (GPEW\, former MEP); Dr. Alexandra Harrington (Global Institute for Health and Human Rights)\, Dorothy Nalubega (Ecological Party of Uganda\, Global Greens)\, and Miriam Kennett (Green Economics Institute). Facilitated by Peg Alexander. \n\n  \nPracticalities\nVenue: Kirk Lounge at the COP26 Green Hub (The Renfield Centre – 260 Bath Street\, Glasgow\, UK). These events will be taking place entirely in person.  \nAudience: Free and open to the general public\, but pre-registration may be required and there is a maximum capacity for each session.  \nRegister: To learn more and sign up in advance\, please check out this link.

SUMMARY:Climate Emergency Economy at the Green Hub
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nAlongside several partners\, GEF has been investigating the requirements of a so-called Climate Emergency Economy. We’ve focused on the questions and sectors that pose a particular challenges such as agriculture\, transport infrastructure and trade\, and hydrogen for the green transition. \nWhich sectors should be prioritised for limited “green hydrogen” and what are the geopolitical implications of hydrogen imports? How does zero carbon relate to food sovereignty and the EU’s Farm to fork strategy?

SUMMARY:Pilot projects on UBI
DESCRIPTION:About the event\n“The Unconditional Basic Income is a periodic cash transfer granted to all members of a political community\, without work requirement nor means-testing\, and high enough to ensure an existence in dignity and participation in society”. \nDuring this event\, we will analyse some examples of UBI pilot projects that have been developed in recent years as debunk negative stereotypes. The last part of the session will focus on deriving lessons and best practices for a future universal basic income. \nContext\nThe idea of a basic income was\, for decades\, a utopia. But the last few years have seen it become more and more real\, to the point where we now have many basic income pilot programs up and running around the world. \nThe severity of the pandemic has also highlighted the need to reduce inequalities and protect the most vulnerable. With the crisis generating so much financial loss and uncertainty\, and with public stimulus packages failing to meet the needs of millions\, we need decisive actions and bold solutions more than ever. \nSpeakers\n• Julen Bollain: Spanish economist specialising in unconditional basic income. Julen is a lecturer and researcher at the University of Mondragón (Basque Country). He is also a PhD student in Development Studies\, under the direction of Daniel Raventós. He is a member of the Board of Directors of the Basic Income Network and a life member of the Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN). He is one of the protagonists of the documentary on Basic Income “RBUI\, our right to live” (2018) together with philosophers\, economists\, politicians or social activists such as Philippe Van Parijs\, Guy Standing or Louise Haagh. \nIn the 2016 elections to the Basque Parliament Julen Bollain was elected MP for Elkarrekin Podemos. During the 11th legislature he was the coalition’s economic spokesperson\, as well as acting as President of the Basque Parliament’s Health Committee \n• Mike Danson : Professor Mike Danson is an economist\, Professor Emeritus of Enterprise Policy\, Heriot-Watt University\, Visiting Professor in Energy Policy\, University of Strathclyde\, and Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. He has published widely on rural\, regional and island economies\, microbreweries\, minority languages\, and many other areas of Scottish economic policy and social development. Chair of Basic Income Network Scotland\, Chair of the 2021 BIEN (Basic Income Earth Network) world congress\, depute Convenor Jimmy Reid Foundation\, Trustee of Nordic Horizons and Community Renewal\, Mike was on the Scottish Government’s Just Transition Commission and has advised\, national and international organisations: OECD\, WHO\, EC\, trades unions and community groups. Mike is Co-Director of the Scottish Centre for Island Studies. Contact: michael.danson@hw.ac.uk. \n  \nModeration:\nSusanne Rieger: Co-president of the Green European Foundation. She has been responsible for European issues and European relations in the Catalan Green foundation Fundació Nous Horitzons (FNH) for the past ten years. \nPracticalities\nDate and Time: 2nd Nov  (17:00-18:00)\nAudience: The webinar is free and open to the general public.\nRegistration: Please register here. \n  \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Transición Verde and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:How do we build Community Wealth?
DESCRIPTION:Context\nA new model of economic development\, called Community Wealth Building (CWB)\, is emerging in cities and communities all over Europe. These cities are challenging the dominant economic system that puts private capital accumulation above the basic needs of people. Local policymakers are building collaborative\, inclusive\, and locally controlled economies. \nDuring this event\, we will explore the concept of CWB and discuss how local authorities can implement these ideas in their own cities. This webinar is part of the project Cities as Places of Hope\, that highlights inspiring examples of progressive cities across Europe which are the frontrunners of the social-ecological transition. \nSpeakers\n\nTom Lloyd Goodwin\, Associate Director of the Centre for Local Economic Strategies: Tom is one of the drivers of Community Wealth Building movement in the United Kingdom and will tell us about the ideas of CWB and the way it is being developed in the UK.\nSimion Blom\, Councilor of GroenLinks in Amsterdam: Simion will talk about their plans to implement the CWB model in Amsterdam.\n\n  \nProgramme\n19:00 – 19:05: Welcome and introduction by Hans Rodenburg \n19:05 – 19:20: Presentation by Tom Lloyd Goodwin \n19:20 – 19:35: Presentation by Simion Blom \n19:35 – 20:00: Questions and discussion \n  \nPracticalities\nDate and time: Thursday\, 28th October from 19:30 to 20:30 CET. \nAudience: This webinar will take place in English and is open to the general public \nRegistrations: Please register through this link. \nThis event will be organised through the ZOOM platform. \n\nAudiovisual material\n\nAdditional GEF reading material:  \n \n  \n\nThis project is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Wetenschappelijk Bureau GroenLinks and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Ecofeminist Round Table
DESCRIPTION:About the Event:\n This discussion will be a curated safe space for participants to engage in a long-form dialogue and open-ended conversation based on the booklet: ‘Voor wie willen we zorgen?: Ecofeminisme als inspiratiebron’ (Who do we wish to care for? Ecofeminism as inspiration).   \nWe hope to create a stimulating environment to think and discuss about  the ethics of care and the importance for everyone to be listened and have a voice. Everyone is invited to engage with each other on their visions and versions of care.   \nThe session will be followed by bodywork as aftercare (breathing exercises\, stretching etc.) to help solidify the connections between self and the self\, self and the fellow participant\, and ultimately towards self and the world we live in. All are welcome!  \nContext:\nOur second Ecofeminist round table takes place in Brussels\, as part of the larger Ecopolis event. Ecopolis is the perfect annual day to meet people who care about a sustainable future. Because ecological challenges know no national or linguistic borders\, Ecopolis is diverse\, international\, and interactive.  \nEcopolis invites Belgian and international authors to debate the transition towards a socio-ecological society. Inspiring books\, documentaries and debates between writers\, academics and civil society thinkers about ecology\, economy and society are at the heart of Ecopolis.  \nSpeakers\nThis round table will be facilitated by Philsan Osman\, who studies African Languages and Cultures at Ghent University. She is from Somalia and is an aspiring writer\, activist\, and community builder.  \nPracticalities:\nEcopolis takes place on October 24th\, 2021\, at the Kaaitheater in Brussels. The ecofeminist round table is open to all participants of this event.  \nTickets are on sale via this link. Please note that\, in line with Brussels measures against COVID-19\, a COVID-Safe Ticket will be required for entry.   \n\nThis round table is organised by the Green European Foundation\, with the support of Oikos and the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Ecopolis: Dare to Care
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThe global Covid-19 crisis brought healthcare into the spotlight. But care extends beyond the strictly medical: it includes everything we do to preserve and restore the world. The erosion of the welfare state\, the plundering of the Global South and the crossing of planetary boundaries are worrying developments. And what about the connection between the exploitation of man and of nature?\nWhat if tomorrow we found the courage to truly care for all people and other earthlings\, for our unique living world? Seeing nature merely as raw material for plundering man\, and man as merely driven by competition: can we put that behind us? Can care be a new starting point\, based on connectedness and generosity? Can care\, as an emancipatory principle\, underpin politics and economics?\nEcopolis makes room for these questions\, and many more\, during a day of lectures\, conversations\, workshops\, literature and performance. The analyses and proposals come together from many perspectives: alert carers and emancipated people in need of care\, inspiring researchers and committed artists\, fellow citizens who start from the local context and guests who bring in experiences and wisdom from indigenous cultures and the Global South.\nBecause ecological challenges know no national or linguistic borders\, Ecopolis is diverse\, international and interactive. \n  \nContext\nEcopolis is the perfect annual day to meet people who care about a sustainable future.

SUMMARY:Radical Humanism and Ecological Conversion: Ivan Illich and Alexander Langer
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nIs Europe ready for the ecological conversion that scientific evidence stresses on us? \nIvan Illich and Alexander Langer are influential interpreters of the economic critique of consumer society. Their work and practice offer many stimuli for reflection and action in the contemporary context. \nThis conference will offer the opportunity to compare Illich’s and Langer’s views and proposals\, and to examine not only their freshness and relevance but also their critical aspects. \nThe seminar will dedicate sessions to the translation of theoretical thinking into practical choices as they emerge from the different programs and practices of the Green political sphere\, in order to design and develop new humanistic approaches and environmental strategies. \nContext\nIvan Illich and Alexander Langer are two of the most authoritative interpreters of a critique of the consumer society based on the theory of market self-regulation. \nIllich’s importance in representing a critical voice towards the Western social model\, by now of global dimension\, is well known. We aim to venture further and discuss the personal trajectory and new message that he wanted to propose without coming to terms with the corruptive logics of a consumerist society\, and how can this apply to the present generations. \nLanger spoke of the social desirability of an ecological conversion even before Pope Francis did so in his Encyclical. This can only succeed when it is socially desirable. What we need is a ritual passage which has the allure of solemnity: an “ecological constituent\,” and a widespread commitment to reconsider our ways of living\, producing\, consuming in order to make our life-styles compatible with the limited amount of resources the world can provide. \nThe various conference contributions will study the religious aspects\, those linked to agricultural and territorial choices\, the theme of the frontier\, and the economic and political aspects measured by the real goods and needs of the civil communities throughout Europe. \n  \nProgramme and Speakers\nFriday\, 22/10  \n17:00 Conference opening  \n\nMauro Bozzetti & Franz Tutzer \n\n17:30 “In the sign of the flying fish:” Ivan and Alexander  \n\nBarbara Duden\, Hannover University \n\nSaturday\, 23/10  \n9:00 It is not enough to be indignant.

SUMMARY:Towards a fair and sustainable food system: The Transformative Potential of Agroecology
DESCRIPTION:About the event:\nThe food industry is one of the main factors behind biodiversity loss and the worsening of global inequalities. We aim to contribute to a better understanding of the food system as a tool for social change. It is vital to understand the different processes and exercise critical thinking\, as actors in the agri-food system become aware\, act\, and demand change. \nThese project will be decided into sessions that will have a European focus\, but also a global one\, as global is the agri-food business and\, above all\, its impacts. The Common Agricultural Policy and the different European strategies and policies (From Farm to Fork) will be present throughout this series of roundtables in September/ October and with the speakers we will try to analyse their positive and negative aspects regarding the topics discussed. \n  \nProgramme:\n5. THE TRANSFORMATIVE POTENTIAL OF AGROECOLOGY \nAgroecology is a way of farming that focuses on food production that makes the best use of nature’s goods and services while not damaging these resources. It is an in-depth transformative tool to develop sustainable agri-food systems\, moving away from the industrial system. \nAgroecology teaches us that there is another way of looking at the world\, a more sustainable and fairer way to feed humanity\, respecting the environment\, and taking care of both producers and consumers. \nAgroecological initiatives are on the rise as they favour soil regeneration\, water protection\, and safeguards biodiversity. It protects our health\, promotes employment\, fair wages\, makes women’s work visible and valued\, and revitalizes the rural economy. \nHowever\, the adjective “agroecological” can hide a distinct reality. Large agri-food companies have found in agroecology a new business opportunity\, albeit one that promotes their vision based on profit and is far removed from its transformative component. They incorporate certain practices to mitigate some agricultural affects but avoid touching the pillars holding the current industrial system. In this session\, we will further explore this issue. We will also look at the EU’s strategies and policies to promote agroecology. We will also learn about two agroecological experiences: the Ecocomedores in the Canary Islands and the projects of the El Colletero Association ( \nSpeakers:\n* Andrés Muñoz\, Head of Food Sovereignty at Friends of the Earth specialising in\nawareness raising and advocacy on Food Sovereignty.\n* Aina Calafat\nHead of international projects of the Spanish Society of Organic Agriculture and Agroecology. She\nworked for almost 20 years as technical director of the Consell Balear de la Producció Agrària\nEcològica.\n* Margarita Hernández\nTechnician at the Canary Islands Institute of Agri-food Quality (ICCA) and coordinator of the\nEcocomedores (eco canteens) programme.\n* Raquel Ramírez\nrepresentative of El Colletero (Nalda – La Rioja)\, an association that promotes agroecology to\nachieve sustainable development and equality.\nModeration:\n* Helena Cifre\nCoordinator of the Spanish Society of Organic Agriculture and Agroecology. Law graduate\,\necofeminist and expert in responsible consumption. \nPracticalities:\nWhere: Online platform – ZOOM \nTime and date: 21 October\, 17:30-19:00 PM CET \nLanguage: Simultaneous translation to English \nAudience: these series of webinars are open for the general public \nRegistrations: Registrations are now open <<< \n \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Transición Verde and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:UBI & the COVID-19 pandemic
DESCRIPTION:About the event\n“The Unconditional Basic Income is a periodic cash transfer granted to all members of a political community\, without work requirement nor means-testing\, and high enough to ensure an existence in dignity and participation in society”. \nDuring this event\, we’ll put UBI on the spotlight as a driving solution to tackle poverty and income inequality and other problems in a changing world. \nWe will also review GEF brochure on social policy responses to COVID-19\, which examines the social policy reactions to the Covid-19 crisis in a dozen different European countries. \nContext\nThe COVID-19 crisis continues to change the way we live our lives\, and how social services continue to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable. This crisis will affect how governments plan their future responses to social emergencies\, and UBI could be one effective way to do it. \nThis event is part of our knowledge community ‘A welfare state of the 21st century’. The Green European Foundation has been working on this issue for several years with the aim of opening a debate on UBI across Europe. We are now joining forces with other social actors to give this effort a broader scope. \nAs the debate continues\, we too would be interested in expanding our analysis to include new information and additional countries. \nSpeakers\n• Valerija Korošec\, PhD in Postmodern Sociology. She is a representative of Slovenia in the Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) and the European Network for the Fair Sharing of Working Time.\n• Natalie Bennet\, Green member of the House of Lords in the UK. Former leader of the Green Party of England and Wales from 2012 to 2016. She previously spent 20\nyears working as a journalist\, (the Bangkok Post\, The Times\, and the Guardian Weekly)\n• Simo Raittila\, Coordinator of the Finnish think tank Visio and a PhD student in Sociology at the University of Helsinki. In 2018 he worked on last-resort social assistance register research at Kela\, the Social Insurance Institution of Finland. \nModeration:\nHannes Mehrer. Coordinator of the Basic income working Group of the German Green party and of the Green Network of UBI supporters. \n  \nPracticalities\nDate and Time: October 19th (17:00-18:00)\nAudience: The webinar is free and open to the general public.\nRegistration: Please register in advance via this link. \n  \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Transición Verde and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Practicing Food Sovereignty in the Climate Emergency
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nGEF\, with the support of Green Foundation Ireland and Cultivate\, has built on our 2020 publication ‘A Question of SCALE’ and the findings of a webinar held in June 2021 to produce a new pamphlet: ‘Food Sovereignty\, Climate Action and Local Resilience.’ \nThis launch event will include conversations with leading Irish and European advocates of regenerative agriculture\, rural regeneration\, and sustainability. Drawing from the pamphlet\, it will explore how we might take climate action and strengthen the resilience and wellbeing of our local places through the practice of food sovereignty. \nContext\nThis webinar is part of the project Climate Emergency Economy–organised by GEF with the support of Green House Think Tank\, Wetenschappelijk Bureau GroenLinks\, Green Foundation Ireland\, and the Foundation for Environment and Agriculture. The project explores policies required in ‘hard-to-reach’ sectors for Europe to reach zero carbon. In 2021\, activities are centred around three key pillars: agriculture\, hydrogen\, and transport infrastructure and trade. \nSpeakers\n\nThomas Waitz – Austrian MEP (Greens/EFA)\, ecological farmer and forester\nEwa Sufin-Jacquemart – Director of the Green Polish foundation “Strefa Zieleni”  \nJudith Hitchman – Food sovereignty activist and president of Urgenci\, the global Community Supported Agriculture network \nMike Small – Scottish freelance writer\, journalist\, author and publisher.  He worked in the Fife district of Scotland to develop new models of organizing around local food that culminated in a book titled Scotland’s Local Food Revolution. \nLisa Fingleton – Artist\, grower\, writer and filmmaker based on an organic farm on the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland. Her book The Local Food Project explores the power of growing and eating local food. \nBridget Murphy – Regenerative hill farmer based in County Sligo and Core Group member of Talamh Beo\, an alliance of farmers\, growers and land-workers on the island of Ireland. \nModerated by Davie Philip (Cultivate / ECOLISE.eu) \n\nPracticalities\nThis webinar will be taking place via Zoom\, in English. As always\, there will be an interactive Q&A section which will allow full participation by those attending.  \nPlease register in advance via this link. Contact info@greenfoundationireland.ie with any further questions.  \n\nThis project is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Green Foundation Ireland and Cultivate\, with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.  \n

SUMMARY:The Green Hydrogen Transition
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nHydrogen produced from renewable electricity will play a crucial role in the transition to a climate-neutral Europe\, but its adoption raises several issues. These stem from the fact that green hydrogen will be scarce well into the next decade. \nDoes the European Union need a ‘hydrogen ladder’ that puts forward green hydrogen for the industries that are more difficult to decarbonise? Or would this actually slow down the breakthrough of green hydrogen? \nProduced from natural gas\, ‘Blue hydrogen’ has most of its CO2 emissions captured and stored. According to its proponents\, it can pave the way for green hydrogen. What role can blue hydrogen play as a transition fuel and feedstock? \nA growing number of companies and governments\, including the European Commission\, want to invest in the production of green hydrogen in Africa\, the Middle East and other parts of the world that are rich in sun or wind. Will the import of green hydrogen create new geopolitical and ethical risks for the European Union? \nThis roundtable will be moderated by Suzanne Kröger\, former MP for GroenLinks (Netherlands). \nContext:\nThis webinar is part of the project Climate Emergency Economy–organised by GEF with the support of Green House Think Tank\, Wetenschappelijk Bureau GroenLinks\, Green Foundation Ireland\, and the Foundation for Environment and Agriculture. The project explores policies required in ‘hard-to-reach’ sectors for Europe to reach zero carbon. In 2021\, activities revolve around three key pillars: agriculture\, hydrogen\, and transport infrastructure and trade. \nPracticalities\nDate and time: Friday 15 October\, from 14:00 to 16:00 CEST  \nAudience: This roundtable is invitation-only.  \nContact: Richard Wouters\, rwouters (at) groenlinks.nl    \n\nThis project is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Wetenschappelijk Bureau GroenLinks and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

SUMMARY:Green Horizons Academy: The Good Story
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThe Green Horizons Academy is an educational programme that aims to expand the ideas surrounding the green movement towards the alternative liveable future across Europe. Addressing the climate crisis and environmental issues is a home ground for the greens. Still\, we need to better prepare for the forthcoming battles of narratives\, where everyone is “playing the green card”. \nPopulists and conservative authoritarians\, especially in countries with a weak green opposition\, are casting a long shadow over social movements and appropriating environmentalism. Europe’s narrative of openness and solidarity has been put to the test amid the pandemic. The Academy is a space for theory and practice that can serve both for political actors to step into closer communication with the people\, and for citizens to politicize the growing environmental struggles. \nThis year’s Green Horizons Academy’s main topic is building a successful narrative around green values that resonates with the broad public\, therefore its title – THE GOOD STORY. \nOver three days\, we hope to inspire European green actors and raise the capacities of citizens from South-East Europe in their approach to presenting green values and agendas. GHA will also examine the resilience of the local Green political organisations and offer the space for authentic policy debates designed for and from the region. The time has come for green-minded actors to create a cultural uprising\, painting our views as possible\, tangible\, and popular! From the academic field of political theory to the environmental activists and new movements\, the Green Horizons Academy will present\, discuss\, and articulate democratic\, feminist\, sustainable and just alternatives. \nProgramme\nThe 3-day event consists of two interlinked parts:  \n\nclosed daily workshops (registered participants only\, in physical space)  \npublic evening sessions (online) with lectures and panels covering various topics \n\nFriday\, 15 October  \n17:30 Welcome  \n18:00 –  19:15 PUBLIC SESSION: Moving of the Movements (panel): Analysis of the development cycle of the environmental movements\, where are they today\, what messages are they sending\, and what are the roadmaps to success.  \n\nPablo Dominguez (Senior Eco-Anthropologist at the National Council for Scientific Research CNRS\, France) \nSafet Kubat (Eco Movement Rivers of Bosnia and Herzegovina – Be the Change\, PhD candidate in political ecology) \nAleksandar Dragićević (Coalition for Sustainable Development\, Montenegro) \n\n\nŽaklina Živković (Right to Water\, Serbia) \nModerator: Bojana Selaković (Civic Initiatives) \n\n19:30 – 20:45 PUBLIC SESSION: Environmentalism Gone Rights and Wrong (panel): Populist and conservative influences in environmental struggles and our green and left alternative.  \n\nSpeaker: Balša Lubarda – an environmental sociologist specializing in environmental communication\, radicalism\, right-wing politics and political ideologies.
