SUMMARY:'A European Just Transition for a Better World' Book presentation (Brussels)
DESCRIPTION:Context\nThis event is organized by the Green European Foundation with the support of Oikos Think Tank and Member of European Parliament Sara Matthieu\, to present the book on Just Transition\, published within the GEF project Just Transition. \nThis transnational project tackles the question of a Just Transition – transforming from an extractive to a regenerative economy in a just and equitable way to find the necessary support among the population. It seeks to show that the green family\, including GEF in its specific role\, is a leading actor in the development of futureproof politics and policies\, developed in a sensitive way that keeps in mind local specificities. \nAbout the event \nAs we argue in this book\, a just transition requires a new social contract. A new contract for Europe – this time a social–ecological contract – can only be written from a global perspective\, taking into account human rights and respect for nature worldwide. At the same time\, this major transformation will need to be very context specific. The differences between European regions are enormous\, not least in terms of income disparity between and within countries. So\, too\, are the financial\, innovative and structural capacities to shape and implement the transformative changes that are needed. From these perspectives\, we critically appreciate the European Commission’s Green Deal. \nThis and more will be discussed this evening. \nSpeakers\n\nSara Matthieu\, Member of European Parliament (Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance)\nDirk Holemans\, coordinator of Think Tank Oikos & Co-President of GEF\nJoaquin Nieto\, Former Director of the ILO Office for Spain\nAnne Chapman\, Green House Think Tank\nPhilippe Pochet\, General Director of the European Trade Union Institute (ETUI)\nModerator: Annabelle Van Nieuwenhuyse\n\nPracticalities:\nDate: 11th May \nTime: Doors open at 19:45h \nEvent starts at 20:00h and event ends at 21:30h\, including a drink \nLocation: Zilverenzaal/Foyer en dakterras\, Beursschouwburg Brussels (20 – 28 Rue Auguste Orts\, 1000 Brussels). \nRegistrations: Registrations are open << \n\nThis event is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Oikos think tank and Member of the European Parliament Sara Matthieu and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.
