While well-regulated private finance has a major role to play to fill the green funding gap, public spending in the green and just transition is needed too.<\/p>\n<p>The reform of the EU fiscal rules is at full speed. The European Commission published an <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/economy-finance.ec.europa.eu\/system\/files\/2022-11\/com_2022_583_1_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">orientation paper<\/a>. These orientations seek to strike a balance between the need to foster investments in the so-called twin transitions (green and digital) in all Member States, to ensure public debt and public finances are sustainable, and to get people\u2019s support or at least acceptance (\u201cpolitical stability\u201d). <em><strong>But are these Orientations striking the right balance?\u00a0<\/strong><\/em> Will they prevent further cuts in public services such as health, education or housing? Will they open up sufficient fiscal space to trigger green investments at scale? Is there a risk of promoting indiscriminate GDP growth going with massive greenhouse gas emissions and environmental destruction? Are future fiscal risks, such as climate-related fiscal risks, sufficiently accounted for?<\/p>\n<p>This event aims to open a space to hear MEPs from the various political parties share their views on possible improvements building on the EC Orientations, before the Commission tables a legislative reform of the Stability and Growth Pact.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Welcome and moderation:<\/strong> Chiara Martinelli (Director CAN Europe)<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nPanellists:\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Greens: Philippe Lamberts<br \/>\n\u2022 S&amp;D: Margarida Marques<br \/>\n\u2022 EPP: Lud\u011bk Niedermayer<br \/>\n\u2022 The Left: Manon Aubry<br \/>\n\u2022 Renew: Billy Kelleher<\/p>\n<p><strong>Closing:<\/strong> Patrizia Heidegger (Deputy Secretary General, EEB)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to best balance environmental, social and fiscal sustainability Organized by the European Environmental Bureau (EEB) and Climate Action Network (CAN) Europe 23 March, 9:15-10:30 CET<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"author":88,"featured_media":109713,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[193],"tags":[196],"class_list":["post-109711","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-past-event","tag-events"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Economic-Transition-Events-2.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109711","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/88"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=109711"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109711\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/109713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109711"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=109711"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=109711"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
