Science is showing us tha t unless we rapidly and radically shift course\, the world is heading for catastrophic climate change and possible ecological collapse. As we are no w deep into the Anthropocene\, it is now clear that human extractive and p olluting activities exceed the regeneration rate of natural systems. This has reinforced the conclusion that we need a new economic paradigm as the current growth policies do not correlate with the needs of a global transi tion towards sustainability within the operating space that safeguards the biophysical processes that regulate the functioning\, stability and resil ience of the entire earth’s system.\nThe panel will address the linkage between the current economic model\, the climate and ecological crisis an d social injustice\, and highlight why the current economic growth model f ails to align with scientific evidence. It will also discuss the various proposed approaches to move beyond a growth economy and share insights in to the methodologies and tools that will enable policymakers to fully inte grate social\, environmental\, and economic objectives. Furthermore\, it will explore the ways in which governments\, individuals and businesses ca n make the necessary changes for a just transition within planetary bound aries.\nSpeakers will include Sandrine Dixson-Declѐve\, Co-President of t he Club of Rome\, Philippe Lamberts\, Member of the European Parliament an d Co-President at (Greens/EFA) Belgium\, Patrizia Heidegger\, Deputy Secre tary General\, Director for EU Governance Sustainability and Global Polici es\, Yamina Saheb\, Lead Author at the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and Timothée Parrique\, Researcher at the School of Economics and Management Lund University\, Sweden.
