Foreword and motivation

The green economy is the economy that aims at reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities, and that aims for sustainable development without degrading the environment. However, it is a highly complex construct in terms of its attempts to integrate economic, environmental, and social concerns, the wide range of actors involved, its material outcomes, and the forms of governance needed to regulate processes of economic greening. Seminars have two main aims. The first is to explain the green economy concept and the framework in which it is included. The second is to consider theoretical and practice tools that might be used to analyze the drivers and processes shaping the green economy.
