Since 2009, The Parliament for the Future gathers economic, political, scientific, cultural and social actors who desire and work to make the world a better place. This year, Entrepreneurs d’Avenir is celebrating its 10th anniversary. To mark the occasion, the 2020 conference will be held at the OECD headquarters in Paris, 22-23 January 2020.
The program of the two-day event offers participants keynotes and debates around sustainable and ethical initiatives and businesses; accompanied by two other parliaments, the Youth Parliament, which invites young activists and students at a forum to discuss and debate their ideas for sustainable progress, and the Parliament of Nature, which will focus on ethical and legal issues of protection of Nature and ecosystems.
CUSP director Tim Jackson is joining the opening panel with Anne Hidalgo (Mayor of Paris), Etienne Klein (Director, CEA) and Robert Watson (President, IPBES). The session will be moderated by the journalist Marie-Aline Meliyi.
A video of the event will be available shortly.
