Full Programme
To achieve climate neutrality and long-term economic growth and prosperity, the European Union is undertaking ambitious policy initiatives to become the world’s first global region with no net emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050.
Together with the ongoing digital transformation of our societies, the green transition will have profound effects on economies and labour markets across Europe. This invites discussions on new forms of work and ways it may impact workers.
Within the frame of CESI’s EU co-funded ‘EcoTra’ project, the “Summer Days” will explore the social dimension of the Green Deal and ways to make the twin (green and digital) transition a key driver of a decent, sustainable, and fair future of work.
Experts and representatives from European and international institutions, the public sector, think tanks, trade unions, and companies will discuss the following questions:
How will the Green Deal impact economies, labour markets and jobs?
How to make the Green Deal fair, inclusive and sustainable?
What will be the impacts of the twin transition on different regions and industry sectors?
What will be the challenges from the perspectives of the public and private sector?
How can we ensure participation and co-decision of workers in the transitions?
