Integrating the economic, social and climate transition in Sicily_cover

Integrating the economic, social and climate transition in Sicily

Addressing the climate crisis requires overcoming the current political and social fragmentation through the design and implementation of inclusive and redistributive climate policies, capable of building broad public support and ensuring that different social groups benefit from the opportunities these policies provide. In this regard, public action should adopt, as much as possible, a people- and place-based approach, taking into account the specific social, economic, territorial, and climatic conditions in which policies are implemented. This is essential to maximise their effectiveness not only in terms of emissions reductions, but also in terms of socioeconomic benefits.

How to build a feminist Europe?

Rapport
Following the European elections in 2024, women's rights are in danger, with far-right parties scoring historically high figures, particularly in the founding countries of the European Union, such as France, Germany and Italy. These parties are extremely dangerous for our human rights and for our democracies. Their vision of society is profoundly reactionary, racist and sexist.

The climate and security nexus in Italian foreign policy

Policy brief
Climate change is widely recognised as a “threat multiplier”, since it exacerbates existing tensions and vulnerabilities, particularly in regions that are less resilient to its impacts. In this policy brief, ECCO researchers Filomena Annunziata, Nicolas Drago and Silvia Francescon analyse the nexus between climate, security and foreign policy in the Mediterranean and develop some policy recommendations for Italy.
