🌍 Join Us to Define Sustainable Prosperity in the EU! 🌟 We’re thrilled to invite you to the upcoming event “Defining Sustainable Prosperity in the EU: Towards Indicators Responding to Citizen Aspirations,” co-organized by Pro(to)topia and for Earth4All, and hosted by the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC). 🗓 Date: January 16, 2025 📍 Location: European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), Rue Belliard 99/101, Room 1040 in Brussels (Hybrid Format) ⏰ Time: 09:30–12:15 CET Why Attend? The new European Commission has made sustainable prosperity one of the seven priorities of its work programme. Yet there has been no democratic discussion yet as to what sustainable prosperity means for Europe. This event seeks to place citizens’ voices at the center of this essential debate. Together, we’ll explore how social, environmental, political, and other indicators can reshape policy and ensure that progress reflects the aspirations of people and the planet. This event also builds on the conclusions of "New metrics for sustainable prosperity: Options for GDP+3", a report coordinated by Pro(to)topia and financed by the European Commission, DG RTD, which proposes a methodology for defining three Sustainable Prosperity headline indicators that go Beyond GDP and calls for democratic participation in their identification. You can check out the report here: https://shorturl.at/WtgDj The agenda features: 💡 Keynotes from thought leaders shaping the future of sustainable indicators, including Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Olivier De Schutter, and Enrico Giovannini 👥 Two engaging panels focusing on people-centered indicators and citizen engagement 🔑 Discussions on addressing inequality and long-term sustainability Whether you join us in Brussels or virtually, your voice matters in this critical dialogue about redefining prosperity for the EU. 🔗 Register here to attend!: https://lnkd.in/eaiUDd2C Let’s build a future of sustainable prosperity that goes beyond GDP and which reflects what truly matters to all of us. #SustainableProsperity #GDPPlus #FutureOfEurope #HybridEvent #NewCommission #BeyondGrowth #BeyondGDP #EuropeanGreenDeal Sandrine Dixson-Declève Olivier De Schutter Peter Schmidt Diana Ognyanova Mario Biggeri Paula Fernandez-Wulff Sylvain Aubry Enrico Giovannini Celine Charveriat Saamah Abdallah
Thanks for the link Saamah Abdallah. Interesting to see the four dimensions of wellbeing set out in the Pro(to)topia report which align closely with the Collective Wellbeing model we use at Carnegie UK - Social, Economic, Environmental and Democratic. https://carnegieuk.org/
