Towards a more sustainable Europe

With this hearing, the EESC started the debate on a long-term strategy for a more sustainable Europe. Based on an assessment of long-term trends and challenges, such as the digitalisation of the economy, the shift to a low carbon economy and the transformation of labour markets, the hearing explored the transition to a new economic model that is economically more resilient, socially more fair and environmentally more responsible. Karl Falkenberg engaged in a dialogue with Martina Larkin, World Economic Forum, and Prof. Karl Aiginger, leader of the project New dynamics for Europe. The results of this hearing will feed into an opinion on a long-term strategy moving towards a more sustainable Europe the EESC is currently preparing.
