FEPS Weekly Newsletter 18 March 2022

The European Parliament Former Members Association (FMA) and the Historical Archives of the European Union organise this High-Level Conference, on Monday 21 March 2022, at the European University Institute at Villa Salviati in Florence.

FEPS President Maria João Rodrigues will participate in a roundtable together with the presidents of the other European political foundations.

Join the launch event of the book 📕The Circular Economy and Green Jobs in the EU and Beyond.

The book offers clarification on the meaning and the implications of the circular economy across different contexts. It goes beyond simply arguing in favour of a circular economy and critically assesses the political and distributional choices that are made during this transition.

Edited by Janis Brizga and Saïd El Khadraoui and with a foreword by Frans Timmermans, Vice-President of the European Commission.

This event responds to the need to urgently develop and communicate a vision of just environmental and climate politics by bringing together researchers, progressive policymakers and foundations from the Nordic and Baltic regions and the European level.

“This event is a proof of a double commitment of FEPS: to the Baltic region, where we would like to see more joint activities, and to the topic of climate change, a critical challenge of our time and a long-standing commitment of our foundation”, said FEPS Secretary General László Andor during the event.
