Book excerpt: The COVID-19 outbreak upended normal life and forced us to rethink the way we went about our day-to-day activities. In spite of the many challenges we faced in 2020, we offered many advisory solutions that shortened the path to recovery. We also did not stop our work on climate change.

Book excerpt: Funded and managed by the European Commission and the European Investment Bank, the European Investment Advisory Hub helps identify, prepare and implement sustainable investment projects across Europe. Since its launch, the European Investment Advisory Hub has received more than 2 500 direct requests for in-depth support. In 2021, less-developed, so-called cohesion countries submitted the greatest number of requests. The European Investment Advisory Hub's main goal is to give promoters a comprehensive and bespoke advisory package, which includes information and guidance via our website, tailored assistance to develop and implement investment projects and platforms, and light advisory support when projects just need a little extra push to get up and running. As the 2021 report shows, the road to recovery is looking increasingly green and digital as the technological advances spurred on by the COVID-19 pandemic are harnessed and paired with climate-minded investments.

Book excerpt: The European Investment Advisory Hub was set up in 2015, alongside the European Fund for Strategic Investments, as part of the Investment Plan for Europe designed to boost investment. The Hub supports investment by providing advisory services to project promoters in addition to those already available under other EU programmes. The Hub operates as a partnership between the Commission and the European Investment Bank. The EU budget covers 75 % of the Hub's annual budget up to €110 million in the period 2015-2020. This report presents our findings on the Hub's activities from its launch up until December 2018. We conclude that, by the end of 2018, the Hub had not yet proven to be an effective tool for boosting investment and we provide recommendations for improving its performance and incorporating the lessons learned from the Hub in the new InvestEU advisory hub proposed under the InvestEU programme for the period 2021-2027.

Download or read book UNESCO science report written by UNESCO and published by UNESCO Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-09 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are fewer grounds today than in the past to deplore a North‑South divide in research and innovation. This is one of the key findings of the UNESCO Science Report: towards 2030. A large number of countries are now incorporating science, technology and innovation in their national development agenda, in order to make their economies less reliant on raw materials and more rooted in knowledge. Most research and development (R&D) is taking place in high-income countries, but innovation of some kind is now occurring across the full spectrum of income levels according to the first survey of manufacturing companies in 65 countries conducted by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics and summarized in this report. For many lower-income countries, sustainable development has become an integral part of their national development plans for the next 10–20 years. Among higher-income countries, a firm commitment to sustainable development is often coupled with the desire to maintain competitiveness in global markets that are increasingly leaning towards ‘green’ technologies. The quest for clean energy and greater energy efficiency now figures among the research priorities of numerous countries. Written by more than 50 experts who are each covering the country or region from which they hail, the UNESCO Science Report: towards 2030 provides more country-level information than ever before. The trends and developments in science, technology and innovation policy and governance between 2009 and mid-2015 described here provide essential baseline information on the concerns and priorities of countries that could orient the implementation and drive the assessment of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the years to come.

Download or read book Collective Sustainable Consumption written by Anna Horodecka and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of climate change and resulting environmental and social crises, sustainable consumption has become a widely discussed issue and a key plank of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The majority of the sustainable consumption research uses the SDG framework, but this only serves to reinforce an individualistic, efficiency-based approach and it does not sufficiently cover the specific situation of transition economies. In contrast, this volume promotes a collective approach to sustainable consumption, and combines general theoretical issues with empirical examples from the Polish economy. The first part of the book presents a theoretical approach to collective consumption which has the core concepts of justice and human nature at its heart. This approach emphasises the role of collective rationality and categorises aspects of sustainable consumption as a common and public good. The second part investigates diversified aspects of sustainability, including socio-economic inequalities as barriers to sustainable consumption, consumer sovereignty in the context of current legal regulations, and the impact on employees of changes to the types and conditions of work. It also examines the sharing economy and the legal conditions of its development. The third part adopts a political perspective focusing on the state policies enhancing the role of investment in public goods, analyses photovoltaic programmes which promote prosumption and indicates challenges to sustainability faced by many countries such as the energy crisis, sustainable finance, and cooperative platforms. This book will be of great interest to researchers and scholars interested in sustainability and consumption issues in economics, management, law, public administration, and political science.

Download or read book EU Fiscal Federalism written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-31 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiscal federalism refers to the division of fiscal powers — powers to tax and spend — between different levels of government. The European Union (EU) is often seen as a legislative giant on clay feet, and one of the principal reasons for this feebleness is the lack of a significant fiscal capacity at the Union level. EU Fiscal Federalism: Past, Present, Future explores ten aspects of the EU's fiscal constitution relating both to the fiscal limits it imposes on Member States and the evolution of its own fiscal policy. Bringing together an international and distinguished group of scholars, this volume analyses the different legal dimensions of fiscal federalism within the EU, from the various aspects of the single market (free movement, banking union, state aid, tax harmonization) to the EU's budget and Economic and Monetary Union. The essays provide a fascinating overview of the topic as well as a detailed analysis of where EU fiscal federalism stands today and how it might develop in the future. Sweeping and thorough, EU Fiscal Federalism will appeal to academics and students of European Union law as well as to European policymakers.
