SUMMARY:Green Economy Congress 2018 (Belgrade)
DESCRIPTION:Context\nThe world we live in is going through a radical transformation which is changing the fundamental values our societies but also economies are based on. Multiple crises due to the growing inequality and environmental destruction are calling for an urgent sustainable answer. As the economic parameters that are measuring growth and economic success are changing\, we must use our knowledge and expertise to innovate the way we think about economy and cannot continue with “business as usual”. \nAbout the event\nThe Green Economy Congress\, taking place for the second time this year\, is a series of interactive\, multidimensional events designed to create and further build up on the notion of necessity for transition to sustainable and fair economy. Green economy is one of the most exciting concepts that is holistic in its form – it generates development while respecting the regional and global ecosystem\, results in improved human well-being and social equity\, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities. \nFor three days all participants will have the opportunity to listen to some of the most impressive economists\, innovators\, entrepreneurs and decision makers\, to share their stories and discover ways to promote an alternative vision for growth and development across the world. \nThe long-term goal of the Congress is not only to raise awareness on green topics\, but to also create a sustainable networking platform to enable green initiatives across Europe. This will be in particular the focus of the first day of the Congress\, which will be organised by GEF. \nProgramme\nThursday November 1st \n12:00 – 12:15: Official Opening  \n\nRepresentative of Green European Foundation\nŽaklina Živković\, GAJP\n\n12:15 – 13:15: Opening Panel – Public Policies and Circular Economy \n\nSlobodan Perović\, Republic of Serbia Ministry of Environment Advisor\nAntoine Avignon\, EU delegation in Serbia (tbc)\nOlivera Kuzman\, Zurovac OEBS expert on circular economy (tbc)\nSiniša Mitrović\, Serbian Chamber of Commerce (tbc)\n\n13:15 – 13:25: Pause \n13:25 – 14:00: Lecture – Innovation in Circular Economy: Closing the Loop in Agri-Business  \n\nGrigoris Chazikostas\, Biosense Institute\n\n14:00 – 15:00: Lunch \n15:00 – 16:00: Panel – Green Cities and Urban Development \n\nRepresentative of EU Green Capital of Europe Nijmegen (tbc)\nRepresentative of Cooperation and Development Eastern Europe (CDN)\nSinisa Trkulja\, UN Urban Agenda Habitat III\nRepresentative of City Council of Belgrade (tbc)\n\n16:00 – 16:15: Coffee Break \n16:15 – 17:15: Panel – New Plastic Economy: EU Circular Economy Package \n\nRepresentative of Reloop Europe\nRepresentative of Greentech Serbia\nRepresentative of SEPEN\nExpert in EU Circular Economy Package (tbc)\n\n17:15 – 18:00: Coffee and Networking \n\nFriday November 2nd \n12:00 – 12:15: Opening  \n\nDubravka Negre\, European Investment Bank\n\n12:15 – 13:00: Toward the Green Finance \n\nRepresentative of  Trag Foundation (tbc)\nRepresentative of  Ethical Financing Cooperative of Croatia\nRepresentative of  BRODOTO\nRepresentative of  ERSTE bank\n\n13:00 – 13:15: Coffee Break \n13:10 – 14:10: Panel – Women in the Green Economy \n\nBranislava Jovicic Bačkan\, Green Energy News\nAnkica Barbulov\, GIZ (tbc)\n\n14:00 – 15:00: Lunch  \n15:00 – 16:00: Environmental Reporting: Media as a Catalyst for Change \n\nRepresentative of Euractiv (tbc)\nSlavica Gligorijevic\, RTS (tbc)\nAdam Santovac\, N1 (tbc)\nRepresenative of CINS/BIRN (tbc)\n\n16:00 – 16:15: Coffee Break \n16:15 – 17:00: Democratisation of the Energy Sector: Prosumers and Cooperatives as Alternatives \n\nMaja Turković\, ASOR\nRepresentative of CAN Europe (tbc)\n\n\nSaturday November 3rd \n12:00 – 15:00: Green Economy Fair + Workshops   \nWorkshops including: \n\nDeveloping Circular Economy in Agriculture\nDecentralised Energy Alternatives\nEco Design\n\nAdditionally\, the Congress will entail a variety of social activities such as museum visits\, get-togethers and more. \nWho should apply?\nThis conference is suitable for both students who are just developing their interests for green economy models\, and green economy professionals and activists.

SUMMARY:Climate Jobs - Towards a Zero-Carbon Economy (Bristol)
DESCRIPTION:Context\nWith the consequences of climate change being evermore perceptible through extreme weather events (both worldwide and in European countries)\, verifiable research is urgently needed to set targets and policies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the amount necessary to secure a livable environment. At the same time\, policies to reduce greenhouse emissions are often attacked for threatening existing jobs. \nGEF’s transnational project “Strengthening Climate Targets\, Creating Local Climate Jobs” sets out to explore what greenhouse emissions reductions would mean in practical terms for our job markets and economies\, and whether jobs could be created in rural areas across Europe. Can both a safe and just economically sound life for all be achieved? To this end\, our project undertook research on the potential to create more climate jobs in three EU countries with diverse historic and economic prerequisites: United Kingdom\, Ireland and Hungary. \nAbout the event\nThis upcoming side event at the Autumn Conference of the Green Party of England and Wales will offer an introduction to the GEF transnational project. In particular\, it will present the results of modelling to estimate the net number of jobs that could be created in each local authority area of the United Kingdom\, via the transition to a zero carbon economy\, in the key sectors of energy\, transport\, waste management\, buildings and food\, farming\, and forestry. \nDuring the event\, the overall GEF project as well as the research findings and resulting policy recommendations for the United Kingdom will be presented by: \nJonathan Essex\, Green House Think Tank \nAnne Chapman\, Green House Think Tank \nChaired by: Natalie Bennett\, Board Member Green European Foundation and former Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales \n\nFor more information on this workshop and the Autumn Conference of the Green Party of England and Wales from 5 to 7 October in Bristol\, you can find the programme here. \nFor updates and other upcoming events of this GEF transnational project\, follow us on Twitter and Facebook.
