Европейският икономически и социален комитет (ЕИСК) работи по проект относно дезинформацията, който ще се осъществи с помощта на гражданското общество. Дезинформацията обикновено се разпространява сред населението, често хоризонтално, така че най-добрият начин за справяне с този проблем не е чрез подход „от горе надолу“, а посредством размисъл и пряко участие на гражданите. Именно тук организираното гражданско общество може да изиграе решаваща роля.
The European Economic and Social Committee is organising the 3rd edition of its conference on energy poverty on 18-19 July 2023 in Brussels. This follows on from the EESC's conferences in 2021 and 2022 on this important issue.
How the EU can push back against resource depletion
Event type
Conference
Location
Rue Belliard 99, 1040
Brussels
Belgium
This public event will assess the extent of the EU's current ecological overshoot and look into proposals from organised civil society to push back against resource depletion and present some best practices and initiatives to reduce the EU's ecological footprint.
On 27 and 28 February 2023, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and the European Commission will host the 2023 European Circular Economy Stakeholder Conference in hybrid mode. The sixth Conference will bring together Europe's biggest circular economy stakeholders to focus on the role of the circular economy in driving sustainable recovery, open strategic autonomy and resilience.
Originally focused on matters of security and defence, open strategic autonomy has expanded to encompass a wide range of policies from geopolitics, trade and economics (i.e. critical raw materials and supply chains) to technology, environment and climate, social and governance. However, the Member States still do not agree to what levels of ambition should strategic autonomy be pursued or how would the concept of strategic autonomy be defined. In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis and then with the war in Ukraine, all seem to agree that the EU should develop more capabilities to increase self-sufficiency.
