How can adopting a different economic approach ensure sustainable prosperity? How can a green economy deliver more local jobs? How can the environment be incorporated into decision-making to maximise well-being? Is economics as usual now past its use-by date? Is it time to look again at our measures of success? Can a low-carbon, low-resource use economy also be dynamic? Hear the latest thinking on highly topical subjects and explore them together through an interactive panel discussion and workshops. Keynote presentation by Ian Johnson (Secretary general of the Club of Rome), with a range of respected speakers. This event will interest economists/economic development managers, policy-makers, researchers, business leaders, and those with an interest in sustainable development, both from Scotland and beyond.
