Beyond profit: How to reshape the European Green Deal for people’s well-being

Beyond profit: How to reshape the European Green Deal for people’s well-being

Report    |    12 March 2024

As the EU gets ready for the elections, uncertainties loom over the funding of its climate agenda and the future of the European Green Deal. Despite forward-looking intentions, the environmental and economic recovery is progressing at a slow pace and failing to improve people’s well-being.   

This searing report by the Citizens’ Observatory on Green Deal Financing analyses key EU funding mechanisms such as the Recovery and Resilience Facility and InvestEU. It exposes significant shortcomings in strategic priorities and implementation and shows that the EU’s investment strategy tends to prioritise technological innovation and competitiveness over people’s basic needs and environmental sustainability.  

This publication is also available in Bulgarian, Catalan and Italian.
