Growth in Transition
• International Conference 28 and 29 January 2010, Vienna • Scientific Workshop 27 January 2010, Vienna • An Initiative of the Austrian Environment Ministry in cooperation with 15 partners • Does economic growth solve our problems (such as unemployment, increasing
poverty or environmental pollution), or does it cause these problems? • The conference deliberately tackles a broad range of topics in order to involve
as many different stakeholders as possible to trigger a wide public debate.
