Panel discussion “Renewable jobs – jobs in renewables: facts and myths” during the congress organized by the Greens/ EFA in Warsaw

Posted on by

ziemiaThe panel discussion “Renewable jobs – jobs in renewables: facts and myths” is going to take place during the participatory debate about Poland and its future “Citizen’s energy for a good climate” organized by the Greens/ European Free Alliance (Greens/ EFA) in the European Parliament from 15 to 16 November in Warsaw.

What is the aim of this panel? As the organizers wrote:

In the midst of the crisis Europe is in need for new innovative sustainable strategies for jobs creation. For the Greens in Europe, investment in renewable energy is clearly one of the solutions to be implemented. There are many good examples across the EU to follow. Together with the public we will be looking at the solutions which could be applied in Poland and how to unleash the potential of green jobs in Poland.

During the panel discussion I am going to present the potential for jobs creation in the renewable energy sector in Poland as well the German experiences in this field. I am going also to discuss the potential for a transfer of these experiences to Poland.

More information about the panel discussion as well as the whole event is available on the website of the Greens/ EFA.

On 14-17 September 2011 I took part in the 19th Annual Conference of the European Environment and Sustainable Development Advisory Councils in Wroclaw in Poland on “Green Economy” agenda in the context of sustainable development.

Two main topics of the conference were: “Challenging, encouraging, innovative: Addressing the “Green Economy” agenda in the context of sustainable development” and “Learning from long-standing and diverse experience: Institutional framework for sustainable development at national level”.

I contributed to the Conference Proceedings as rapporteur writing reports on two sessions: “Session D-1 Energy: a key transition area” (pp. 78-85) and “Session B-2a Economy: national and regional case studies on Green Economy” (pp. 94-95).
