FINAL CONFERENCE OF THE IN STREAM PROJECT

How can we progress towards sustainable development, green growth and green innovation?
Which sustainability indicators are most needed and which tools are currently being developed in the IN-STREAM project to help in decision making?
We would like to invite you to the final conference of the IN STREAM project, which will take place on the 27th and 28th of September at the Académie royale des Sciences, des Lettres et des Beaux-Arts de Belgique, in Brussels.
Funded by DG Research of the European Commission, IN STREAM focuses on the linking of mainstream indicators with sustainability measures. The final conference will show how IN STREAM results can support policy makers in taking account of sustainability in policy making. The application of the results will be shown in two policy fields:

  •   Green growth and green innovation
  •   Biodiversity

and focus especially on the question of how the results can support the monitoring and evaluation of the Europe 2020 strategy and the European Biodiversity Strategy.
Please find the provisional agenda attached.
In the conference IN STREAM, team members and external speakers will present how the Beyond GDP agenda has developed in recent years and discuss with policy practitioners and academics interested in sustainable policy making how IN STREAM has contributed to this agenda.
