The Alternative Economic and Monetary Systems (AEMS) Summer University invites to its public panel discussion:
The ongoing climate crisis highlights the urgent need to rethink how we organize our societies and economies. It is becoming increasingly clear that the pursuit of endless economic growth is incompatible with the limits of our planet. Fortunately, there are already numerous ideas and models for a social-ecological transformation that would enable a good life within planetary boundaries. But how can these visions be translated into reality? And how can we finance the urgent transition to a sustainable economy?
This panel discussion will explore these pressing questions with perspectives from science, economics, and ethical finance.
Panelists:
- Andreas Breitenfellner, Senior Principal of the International Economics Section at the Austrian National Bank
- Helga Kromp-Kolb, climate scientist and professor emerita at BOKU Vienna
- Christian Felber, author and founder of the Economy for the Common Good
Moderated by Michael Bauer-Leeb.
Registration starts at 18:00.
There will be time for networking and a buffet by Limoni's afterwards.
