European Green Deal or Economic Degrowth? Towards a Green Welfare Society
#GreenLab22
How can we jointly contribute to the debate on European green policies? Which economic model can address the challenges of the ecological transition more efficiently: Degrowth or a European Green Deal?
We aim to generate a debate on the future of environmentalism and examine the different eco-social models proposed to address the ecological/green transition in Europe.
We aim to bring together professors, experts, journalists, students, activists, decision makers and citizens to debate the interrelation(s) between the current economic model and the climate crisis in Europe.
