John Grin at international Workshop on `Cooperation for a Green Transformation'
This workshop takes up the challenges set in the report “World in Transition – a Social Contract for Sustainability” of the German Advisory Council on Global Change (WBGU), that argues for a profound societal change in order to enable a green transformation.
At June 28, John Grin will give a presentation and act as panelist during a Workshop Cooperation for a Green Transformation, organized by Center for Global Cooperation Research in Duisburg, Germany.
This workshop takes up the challenges set in the report “World in Transition – a Social Contract for Sustainability” of the German Advisory Council on Global Change (WBGU), that argues for a profound societal change in order to enable a green transformation. This report has extensively drawn upon a book by Grin, Schot and Rotmans (Routledge, 2010).
The workshop will bring together approximately 60 influential international participants from think tanks, politics, NGOs, economy and finance, as well as the renewable energy sector. It will be the first in a series of interactive scholar and practitioner workshops of the Centre for Global Cooperation Research. The workshop series will provide important input for the Centre’s academic work on the nature and success conditions of global cooperation and create mutual learning opportunities for participants from different public and private spheres.
