Implementing the Green New Deal for Europe

A Green family Workshop

Greens working together at EU, national and local level towards the implementation of real Green New Deal policies for EU citizens. The Greens/EFA Group in the European Parliament is holding a series of workshops with Greens from around the EU to discuss and fine-tune its policies on the Green New Deal. This workshop will consider key aspects of the Green New Deal, such as its macro-economic framework, its employment dimension and its industrial policies. 

Greens/EFA Group members, concerned national MPs and delegates from Green national parties are invited to provide an initial reaction by raising red flags on what they see as major issues they may have with the papers, allowing us to prepare further debates.
