Growth in Transition | Wachstum im Wandel

The Growth in Transition initiative brought together transformation activists and decision makers from politics, science, the economy and civil society and invited them to rethink questions concerning economic growth, well-being and the quality of life.

Back in 2008 Growth in Transition was launched by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry, the Environment and Water Management (BMLFUW) and since then it was supported by more than 20 partner organisations including federal ministries, universities, social partners, private enterprises and NGOs.

What emerged is a diverse network of various institutions putting forward discourses on a sustainable economy and society. Furthermore the initiative Growth in Transition tried to ally with similar networks on a european level.

The conference ‘Europe`s Transformation: Where People Matter’ was jointly organised by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Sustainability and Tourism (MoE) and the Environmental Agency Austria (EAA), with support from more than 30 stakeholder organisations.
