Our societies are haunted by a multitude of increasingly devastating crises – life-threatening climate change, growing inequalities, economic instability, the rise of populism, and most recently a global pandemic, to name but a few.
On behalf of the S&D Group in the European Parliament, the Independent Commission for Sustainable Equality, a group of 25 eminent experts and policymakers, has developed ‘The Great Shift’, a report that seeks to develop a comprehensive policy roadmap to overcome this global meta-crisis. The Great Shift contains 242 concrete policy recommendations to transform today’s crisis-ridden societies into sustainable and more equal and fair communities.
On the occasion of this conference, leading progressive thinkers and decision-makers will convene to engage with the report and its proposals that span the entire spectrum of economic, social, and environmental policy. Driven by the joint desire to save the planet and to boost citizens’ well-being, our speakers will debate how Social Democracy can incorporate these insights to embark on a comprehensive and at times radical transformation of Europe to build a better society for everyone.
