Overview
The Forum New Economy, housed at the European Climate Foundation, is a Berlin-based nonpartisan platform launched in 2019 with the aim to accelerate the emergence of a new paradigm that leads to economically, socially, and ecologically more sustainable prosperity. The forum brings new economic thinking into the public debate in Germany and promotes and disseminates targeted research that applies innovative approaches to current policy debates around today’s major challenges, such as inequality, financial instability, and climate change. It builds bridges by bringing together leading economists and academics, decision makers and policy advisors at regular events in Berlin. This grant aims to help the forum succeed in its second phase, in which the institution will concentrate on major open challenges (e.g., how to durably reduce wealth inequalities or define a broader modern climate policy); progressively extend the range of stakeholders and audiences; and strengthen its in-house research and policy capacities.
