The Main Theme
The main theme of the Fifth Congress of the EAAERE is “Green Economy and Sustainable Development.” Although the idea of sustainable development has been implemented in many areas since 1985, the progress has not been satisfactory. We may need to formulate another plan of action to guide future progress. At the Conference on Sustainable Development held by the United Nations in Rio, 2012, the attendants agreed that implementing a green economy was the pathway to sustainable development and poverty eradication. However, many unanswered questions still must be tackled before we can successfully transit from the current brown economy to a green one. These questions include: what economic instruments could internalize intergenerational externalities, what policies could avoid and/or improve intergenerational inequalities, what macroeconomic policies could promote a green economy, what types of policy instruments could be used to green industries, what stimulus programs could induce higher levels of innovation needed for a green economy, what international trade policies could spur the development of a green economy, etc. Members and colleagues will have an excellent opportunity to discuss various issues related to sustainable development, green growth and green economy at this Congress.
