About us

Our Mission

The Green Center for Sustainable Finance and Energy will strive to establish itself as a Think tank for policies in the field of sustainable finance and energy, to lead the public debate on these topics in the country, to discuss issues that lead to concrete decisions. The main mission is to create and transfer leading good practices in both areas to stakeholders.

Publications

On September 25, 2015, the UN General Assembly adopted a global framework for sustainable development - the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The program focuses on the global agenda of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) and covers the three dimensions of sustainability: economic, social and environmental (ESG, E - Environment, S - Social, G - Governance).

The result of this global consensus is the first universal, legally binding global climate agreement, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, signed on 22 April 2016 and ratified by the European Union on 5 October 2016.
