Da UnaFinestraSulMondo.
Event date: 2009-11-05 The German Öko-Institut (Institute for Applied Ecology) is organising its annual international conference on 5 November in Brussels, Belgium.
Under the title 'Green transformation towards a sustainable industrial policy for Europe', international experts will discuss which measures should be taken to achieve sustainability and environmental goals, as well as economic goals, in European and national-level industrial policies.
The conference will cover the following questions:
- How can European industrial policy better address the interacting interests of competitiveness, innovation and sustainable development at European and global levels?
- What is the overall concept of a European sustainable industrial policy in light of the dynamic contrast between innovation and competitiveness on the one hand and environmental protection and sustainability on the other?
- Where do responsibilities lie at the European and member-state levels?
- What positive effects will a consistently implemented sustainable industrial policy have, for example, on innovation, social cohesion and reduced dependency on resources?
