From 09:00 to 12:30
Come find us at this conference, organised by the projects SONNET, SocialRES, COMETS, NEWCOMERS and the City of Antwerp!
The highlight session is a Joint Policy Dialogue. First, Rosalinde Van der Vlies, Director Clean Planet, DG R&I, European Commission will set the stage. The SONNET, SocialRES, COMETS and NEWCOMERS projects will then present a jointly-developed Policy Brief and set of recommendations, which speak to how the European Union can better harness the full potential of social innovations to transform energy systems.
The programme also includes more targeted, workshop-style parallel sessions; guided virtual site visits of social innovation initiatives in Antwerp; and a dialogue between social innovation projects that are concluding their work and those that are just beginning.
