UNIBZ - Greening thy Neighbor: How the US Inflation Reduction Act Drives Climate Finance Globally
2024-06-13 12:30 - 13:30 | UNIBZ, E3.20 Universitätsplatz 1 - piazza Università, 1, Bolzano - Bozen, South Tyrol, Italy
Research Seminar – Prof. Daniel te Kaat, University of Groningen, unveils global impacts of US Inflation Reduction Act on sustainable investments, revealing dynamic cross-border investment .
Industrial policies greening the economy aim to accelerate the transition to net-zero. We show that the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) raised sustainable investments globally. Using monthly data on individual funds domiciled in major financial centers and investing worldwide, we identify a novel international spillover channel of industrial policies through these global investment funds. Sustainable global investment funds received more inflows upon IRA enactment, in turn increasing their cross-border portfolio flows worldwide. Recipient economies better prepared to address climate change as measured by widely-used climate policy scores
benefited most from sustainable global funds’ additional investments in response to the IRA. These IRA spillovers are most pronounced for cross-border investments of passively managed exchange traded funds holding a multi-country portfolio, with investments mostly denominated in US dollars or euros. Developing and emerging economies with higher climate policy scores attracted more investments from sustainable global funds than advanced economies. The results are robust to a rich set of controls and fixed effects, absorbing recipient economies’ demand for foreign funds. Thus, global investment funds have become an important conduit for the international spillover of climate policies.

Echt geschlechtergerecht?!
Über Rollenbilder, Machtgefälle und Gesaltungsoptionen
ZUM THEMA
Ansichten zur Gleichberechtigung und Gleichstellung der Geschlechter polarisieren mehr denn je. Über die Grenzen des Sag- wie Tolerierbaren wird beim Abendessen und in der Bar, auf öffentlichen Plätzen oder auch in der Wissenschaft gestritten. Was heißt es heutzutage, eine Frau, ein Mann oder divers zu sein?
Kontrovers debattiert wird, was aus der Unterscheidung zwischen biologischer und sozialer (Zwischen-)Geschlechtlichkeit folgt und wie mit diesbezüglichen Erwartungen in Politik, Kirche und Gesellschaft umzugehen ist. Wodurch können
geschlechtsbezogene Gewaltformen verhindert und strukturelle Diskriminierungen abgebaut werden?
Ganz grundsätzlich gefragt: Inwiefern ist Gleichheit ein Wert und warum geht es hier auch um Fragen der Gerechtigkeit?

Das Anthropozän - Der Mensch und sein unumkehrbarer Einfluss auf den Planeten
2024-09-20 14:00 - 15:00 | Eurac Research Seminnaraum 7, Drususallee 1 / Viale Druso 1, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
Vortrag mit Katharina Block, Umweltsoziologin und Philosophin

Der Geologe Paul J. Crutzen versetzte die Scientific Community 2002 in Aufruhr, als er verkündete, dass die Menschheit ein neues Erdzeitalter erreicht habe: das Anthropozän. Er kam zu der Einsicht, dass der Mensch zur stärksten geologischen Kraft geworden ist und sein irdischer Einfluss irreversible Entwicklungen in Gang gesetzt hat, deren Folgen für den Planeten unabsehbar sind. Und tatsächlich vergeht heute 20 Jahre nach Crutzens Diagnose kaum ein Tag, an dem nicht auf den desolaten Zustand unseres Planeten Erde aufmerksam gemacht wird: Anthropogen verursachter Klimawandel und Erderwärmung ebenso wie Biodiversitätsverlust und humane Katastrophen, die infolge der Folgen der ersteren entstehen, sind zu ständigen Begleitern in der medial vermittelten Auseinandersetzung mit der Welt geworden – allerdings ohne große Auswirkungen auf unser Handeln auszuüben.
Die damit verbundene Frage lautet: Kann der gleiche Mensch, der in die Anthropozän genannte Situation geführt hat, auch wieder hinaus aus der ökologischen Katastrophe führen? Katharina Block skizziert das Anthropozän in ihrem Vortrag als ein schillerndes und ambigues Phänomen, das wesentlich vielschichtiger ist, als sein Name zunächst vielleicht vermuten lässt.
Sprache: Deutsch. Es ist keine Simultanübersetzung vorgesehen.

Nordic Urban Futures
2024-09-25 14:00 - 15:30 | Online Event
Public lecture with Romina Rodela, Senior Researcher and Associate Professor in Environmental Governance and Management at Södertörn University, Sweden and UNESCO Chair Fellow

Urban areas are facing growing challenges such as climate change, population growth, and the need for sustainable development. In response, “urban futuring” initiatives are emerging, which use speculative thinking and creativity to imagine more sustainable urban futures. These initiatives aim to inspire collective action by envisioning better alternative futures and are particularly prominent in Sweden, where they involve collaboration with local actors. This lecture will present the findings from a project that mapped 62 urban futuring activities across Sweden, highlighting their diversity, focus on vulnerable areas, and the increasing role of civil society in shaping equitable and resilient urban futures.

Circular economy, construction and social sustainability
2024-10-02 08:30 - 14:30 | NOITech Park, Seminar room 1, Via Alessandro Volta, Voltastrasse 13 A, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
New projects, synergies and opportunities in South Tyrol.
The circular economy is a regenerative model that extends the life cycle of products, raw materials, and resources by promoting reuse, recycling, maintenance, and reconditioning. This approach reduces waste and creates new business opportunities but requires a rethinking of production and consumption processes, especially in the construction sector. Challenges include integrating new actors, implementing new business models, and managing increased costs and complexity while targeting sustainability. ‘Zero-kilometer’ material recovery lowers cost and generates local job opportunities. In South Tyrol, cooperatives and social enterprises are already engaging in these material recovery activities, involving vulnerable individuals while generating economic and social value.
The workshop “Circular economy, construction, and social sustainability: new projects, synergies and opportunities in South Tyrol” aims to promote a dialogue between local companies in the construction sector, social enterprises, cooperatives, and local administrators to support the transition to a sustainable circular economy.
Eurac Research will present new projects and services to enhance circularity in the construction sector, focusing on the recovery and reuse of building components and the involvement of social enterprises for the circular economy. The workshop will also showcase best practices from local start-ups and social enterprises, engaging participants in a guided discussion on the synergies to be activated to promote a sustainable circular model in South Tyrol.
The event is organized within the framework of the projects ECLECTIC and ATTENTION.
Language: The event will be conducted in Italian. Simultaneous translation is not provided.
Registration: For organizational reasons, registration is required. Please sign up here by September 27th.

I decreti in materia di fiscalità, governance e sostenibilità
2024-10-17 14:30 - 18:30 | UNIBZ – Aula BZ D1.01, Piazza Università 1, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
L’evoluzione in atto nel contesto normativo e regolamentare pone alle imprese, soprattutto piccole e medie, molteplici sfide in ottica sia presente che futura.
Da una parte, la riforma fiscale sta vedendo la propria attuazione con vari decreti delegati che ne stanno definendo alcuni aspetti cruciali, tra cui la cooperative compliance. Dall’altra parte, il recepimento della direttiva europea sul reporting di sostenibilità, con i decreti che ne interessano l’implementazione ma anche i delicati aspetti sanzionatori. A fare da sfondo a tutto ciò, alcune disposizioni innovative sui mercati dei capitali stanno aprendo alle PMI nuove possibilità di attrarre investitori e finanziatori.
In questo evento daremo una chiave di lettura di questi interventi normativi in un’ottica aziendale, sottolineando il fatto che la buona governance è un elemento essenziale per affrontare tutte le sfide future. Per il fisco, che vuole aprire un dialogo rafforzato con le imprese, non solo grandi, ma anche medio-piccole. Per il sistema bancario interessato non solo alle metriche ESG delle imprese finanziate, ma anche a come queste governano la sostenibilità al loro interno. Per gli investitori, infine, che vedono nei sistemi di governance una garanzia di buona gestione e di aderenza ai principi di sostenibilità per i propri investimenti nel capitale di rischio delle imprese.
I relatori esporranno il loro punto di vista sulla normativa, sui cambiamenti per il mondo professionale e le prospettive future per le imprese.
Con il gentile supporto di Confidi Alto Adige Soc. Coop.
Il Consiglio dell’Ordine degli Avvocati ha accreditato l’evento con 3 crediti formativi per la partecipazione all’intero evento.
Per i dottori commercialisti ed esperti contabili la domanda di accreditamento è stata presentata al Consiglio Nazionale.

Gutes tun - Wie der ethische Kapitalismus die Demokratie retten kann
2024-11-07 16:30 - 18:30 | vigilius mountain resort, Pawigl 43 / Pavicolo 43, Lana, Bozen - Bolzano, 39011, Italy
Ein Vortrags- und Diskussionsabend mit dem Philosophen und Bestseller-Autor Markus Gabriel über die unaufschiebbare Frage nach der Zukunft unseres Wirtschaftssystems
Für lange Zeit galt die vorherrschende Doktrin, dass ein auf reinem Gewinnstreben basierendes Wirtschaftssystem die Menschheit stetig voranbringe. Davon kann keine Rede mehr sein. Wir wissen längst: Diese Form des Kapitalismus ist verantwortlich für soziale Ungleichheit, Klimakrise, Migration, ja selbst für Kriege. Markus Gabriel macht deutlich, dass wir dem Schaffen des Guten einen neuen Wert verleihen müssen – in der Gesellschaft allgemein und in der Wirtschaft im Besonderen. Nur ein ethischer Kapitalismus, der finanziellen Profit grundsätzlich mit moralisch positiven Werten verknüpft, wird unsere Erde, unseren Wohlstand und auch unsere demokratischen Staatsformen sichern können. Wir haben eine Zukunft: aber nur in einer Welt, in der die Produktion von Gütern stets mit moralisch guten Ergebnissen einhergeht und in der wir nicht nur politischen Institutionen, sondern auch Wirtschaftsführenden und technologischen Visionärinnen und Visionären vertrauen können, dass ihr grundlegendes Ziel darin besteht, die Dinge für alle zum Besseren zu verändern. Doch kann es eine solche Welt überhaupt geben?
Auf den Vortrag des Philosophen und Bestseller-Autors Markus Gabriel folgt eine Diskussionsrunde mit Expertinnen und Experten verschiedenster Bereiche über die inzwischen unaufschiebbare Frage nach der Zukunft unseres Wirtschaftssystems. Im Anschluss steht die Diskussion auch dem Publikum offen.

Sprache: Deutsch
Programm: 16:30 Seilbahnfahrt aufs Vigiljoch – 17:00 Vortrag mit Markus Gabriel – 17:30 Podiumsdiskussion

Sustainability reporting and cooperatives: future challenges and opportunities
2024-11-13 13:00 - 17:00 | UNIBZ BZ F0.01, Universitätsplatz 1 - piazza Università, 1, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
Non-financial reporting is receiving increasing attention from practitioners and academics. In this context, sustainability reporting has assumed a key role.
The spread of sustainability reporting within companies over the past two decades is mainly due to increased awareness of sustainability issues, stakeholder scrutiny of corporate behavior, and legal obligations. In fact, Directive 2014/95/EU on the disclosure of non-financial information, enacted in 2017, has led to a spike in the adoption of these reporting methods. Most organizations are adopting the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) as their reporting tool, which is intended to align the needs of companies and stakeholders to have transparent information about their sustainability. This type of impact measurement is added to existing tools such as social impact measurement that cooperatives are required to fulfil.
The main question this seminar aims to address is how sustainability reporting and social impact measurement can be valuable tools for cooperatives as well as the potential and limitations of its applicability in the cooperative world. The experiences of practitioners, theoretical perspectives and empirical evidence presented by academics will foster reflections and enrich the discussion on this issue.

2024-11-13 18:00 - 19:30 | Museum of Nature South Tyrol, Via Bottai, Bindergasse 1, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
Negli ultimi anni, l’incremento della biodiversità negli ecosistemi forestali sta acquisendo sempre un ruolo maggiore tra i diversi beni e servizi offerti dai boschi. È oramai riconosciuto che favorire la biodiversità multi-tassonomica tramite la gestione selvicolturale è un modo per rendere i boschi più resilienti e di provvedere ad altri servizi ecosistemici ad essa direttamente collegati. Tuttavia, conciliare questi aspetti e allo stesso tempo adattare i nostri boschi al cambiamento climatico non è opera semplice. Questo Colloquium si focalizza su possibili approcci per integrare la conservazione della biodiversità nella gestione e pianificazione forestale. Verrà fatta una panoramica della situazione legislativa e di ricerca a livello Europeo, per poi fornire qualche spunto e pista di soluzione per le foreste dell’arco alpino e per l’Alto Adige. Verranno inoltre presentati i risultati dei nostri recenti studi sulla relazione tra variabili forestali e biodiversità per le foreste altoatesine, nonché sull’utilizzo di modelli di simulazione come strumento per studiare l’impatto del cambiamento climatico sulla dinamica forestale e per fornire utili raccomandazioni alla gestione dei boschi.
Marco Mina, ecologo forestale e ricercatore presso l’Istituto per l’Ambiente Alpino di Eurac Research, è specializzato in approcci di modellistica di simulazione delle dinamiche forestali e lavora per capire come gestire meglio le nostre foreste in un futuro caratterizzato da cambiamenti globali.
Conferenza in collaborazione con EURAC e Piattaforma biodiveristà Alto Adige.

Gemeinsam auf dem Weg zur Kreislaufwirtschaft - Insieme verso l’economia circolare
2024-11-26 09:00 - 13:00 | MEC Sheraton, Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, 39100, Italy
DE_Der Übergang zur Kreislaufwirtschaft ist entscheidend, um Emissionen und Umweltverschmutzung zu verringern, die Biodiversität zu schützen und die Abhängigkeit von Rohstoffen zu reduzieren. Zudem bietet er Chancen für die Schaffung neuer Arbeitsplätze und die Förderung von Innovationen.
Im Bausektor werden Handwerksbetriebe und KMU – als Motor der Südtiroler Wirtschaft – zunehmend auf die Vorteile der Kreislaufwirtschaft aufmerksam. Viele stehen jedoch vor Herausforderungen: So fehlt es etwa vielfach an Werkzeugen,
Fachwissen und Netzwerken, um den Wandel erfolgreich voranzutreiben. Gerade im Bauwesen spielt die Kreislaufwirtschaft eine entscheidende Rolle, um Abfälle zu reduzieren und nachhaltigere Bauprozesse zu entwickeln. Eine enge Zusammenarbeit zwischen öffentlichem und privatem Sektor sowie Forschungseinrichtungen ist hier der Schlüssel, um Unternehmen im Bausektor auf
diesem Weg zu unterstützen.
Diese Veranstaltung präsentiert praxisnahe Lösungen für den Bausektor und fördert den Dialog zwischen allen beteiligten Akteuren.
Zielgruppe:PlanerInnen, UnternehmerInnen, HandwerkerInnen sowie lokale Institutionen und Verwaltungen, die den nachhaltigen und zirkulären Wandel im Bausektor vorantreiben.

IT_La transizione verso l’economia circolare è fondamentale per ridurre le emissioni e l’inquinamento, proteggere la biodiversità e diminuire la dipendenza dalle materie prime, oltre a rappresentare un’opportunità per creare nuovi posti di lavoro e promuovere l’innovazione.
Nel settore delle costruzioni, le imprese artigiane e le PMI – motore dell’economia altoatesina – stanno diventando sempre più consapevoli dei vantaggi di tale approccio.
Tuttavia, molte di loro affrontano sfide quali la mancanza di strumenti, competenze e reti per portare avanti con successo tale cambiamento. Proprio nell’edilizia, l’economia circolare riveste un ruolo cruciale per la riduzione dei rifiuti e lo sviluppo di processi sostenibili. Una stretta collaborazione tra settore pubblico e privato e istituti di ricerca è la chiave per sostenere in questo percorso le aziende operanti nel settore delle costruzioni.
Questo evento presenta soluzioni pratiche per l’edilizia, promuovendo il dialogo tra tutti gli attori coinvolti.
Destinatari: Progettisti, imprenditori e artigiani, nonché istituzioni locali e amministrazioni che vogliono promuovere il cambiamento sostenibile e circolare nel settore delle costruzioni.

Progressive politics? The European climate movement & Black Lives Matter
2024-12-02 14:30 - 16:00 | Webinar
Join us for an engaging discussion exploring the impact of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests on European climate activism.
The Center for Climate Change and Transformation and the Institute for Minority Rights are proud to invite you to a special webinar exploring the impact of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests on European climate activism.
To what extent did climate activist organizations change their goals and tactics because of the BLM protests in 2020? This webinar explores the extent to which European branches of Extinction Rebellion and Fridays for Future reframed their aims and changed their tactics to stop the oppression of minorities during those protests. Some activists believe that BLM is a distinct movement, albeit one connected to climate action. In such cases, participants advocate for allyship but not necessarily for a new formulation of their own organization’s goals. However, other activists see BLM as a catalyst for change in the climate movement that has long been associated with having conservative roots. Overall, the impact of BLM on the progressive aspects of the climate movement appears minimal. There is a need for more research on intersectionality in social movements, and how contemporaneous social movements impact each other’s understanding of “progressive politics”.
This event is part of the ASCEND – ClimAte JuStiCe and INtersectionality: from ADaptation to Transformation project.

Registration (required by 28.11.2024): WEBINAR – Progressive Politics, the European Climate Movement and Black Lives Matter
