In other words, how and to what degree Ecological Economics is institutionalized at the EU-level?The policy event will be organized by the Universit&#233; Libre de Bruxelles (ULB-IGEAT) in collaboration with EU-institutions (EU Parliament and/or DG ENV&#38;DG RTD). It will alternate a series of keynote speeches by high-level ESEE-members and policy actors with a series of presentations of emblematic ESEE-related (past and on-going) research projects and studies.Brussels is at a mere 30 minutes&#8217; trip by high-speed train from Lille, which allows participants to join the conference opening in time.Contact: Tom Bauler&#160;:&#160;tbauler@ulb.ac.beScientific committeeFranck Aggeri, Federico Aguilera-Klink, J&#233;r&#244;me Ballet, Meriem Bouamrane, Fran&#231;ois Bousquet, Beat Burgenmeier, Isabelle Daugareilh, Simin Davoudi, Val&#233;rie Deldr&#232;ve, Nina Eisenmenger, Olivier Favereau, Marina Fischer-Kowalski, Timothy J.
