The Institute for European Environmental Policy (IEEP) and GlobeScan are organising this event to mark the launch of the European Green Deal Barometer report, a flagship Think2030 initiative that identifies the challenges to the Green Deal’s implementation and provides policy recommendations for addressing them.
The European Green Deal Barometer report builds on the Think2030 survey, an expert consultation on the progress made in implementing the European Green Deal and on the top issues and priorities.
This event will provide an opportunity to share the results of the Think2030 survey, which collected views from nearly 300 sustainability experts from across the EU. Speakers will include Diederik Samsom, Head of Cabinet to the Executive Vice-President of the European Commission, and Dr. Hans Bruyninckx, Executive Director of the European Environment Agency (EEA).
The slides that were presented during the event are available at this link.
About the Think2030 survey
As a follow-up to the Think2030 conference held in November 2020, IEEP, in partnership with GlobeScan, the European Environmental Agency, AER, EEAC, CAN Europe, Ecologic Institute, CISL, WWF EU, Climate Alliance and the Think Sustainable Europe network, asked 300 European sustainability experts what they consider to be the greatest challenges and opportunities on the path towards a successful implementation of the European Green Deal.
Think2030 is a multi-stakeholder platform launched by IEEP in 2018, which meets every two years. The platform brings together leading sustainability experts from European think tanks, civil society, the private sector and local authorities to identify science-based policy solutions for a more sustainable Europe.
