Ecological structural change

Strategies and recommendations for ecological structural change towards a green economy

Complying with our planet's ecological boundaries and pursuing global and national sustainability goals require deep transformation of existing supply and production structures. This project uses case studies and a broad industry screening to find out which economic sectors are under particular pressure to change and how to design policies for successful ecological structural change.

Objective

The project's objective is to find out which economic sectors are under particular pressure to change in terms of sustainability requirements, in order to shape the change here in good time. Another goal is to analyze the conditions and influencing factors for ecological structural change in more detail for selected cases and to derive recommendations how to shape this change.
