🆕 Building a European Alternative for Technological Sovereignty – The EuroStack Report is Out!

Europe is at a turning point. Do we shape our digital future ourselves – or do we remain spectators in a world dominated by others?

The #EuroStack Report presents a holistic blueprint—a layer-by-layer rebuild of Europe’s technological backbone, aligned to Europe’s ethical and democratic values: privacy, self-determination, and sustainability.

🔹 Sovereign AI

🔹 Open-source ecosystems

🔹 Green supercomputing

🔹 Data commons

🔹 Sovereign cloud

By building homegrown alternatives, we can empower European citizens, workers, industries to reclaim control of our digital future.

It’s time to build a digital future that truly reflects our democratic values, economic ambitions, and environmental commitments.

The text: Finland will face significant sustainability challenges in the upcoming years from climate change to an ageing population. Innovation policy can act as a significant force for promoting sustainability transformation, if it adopts new procedures that promote sustainability. We recommend the following procedures to develop innovation policy: 1. Set solving #sustainability challenges as the target of #innovation #policy 2. Recognise the sustainable competence areas of the #future 3. Ensure the responsibility of research and innovation activity 4. Renew ecologically and socially damaging industries 5. Develop #management and ensure that sustainability targets are realised in the implementation of policies.

ORSI - Towards Ecowelfarestate

Okay now time for a proper #introduction: ORSI is a #research #project focusing on our journey towards an #ecowelfarestate. What does this mean?

In a nutshell: we focus on updating the #Nordic #welfarestate to fit within the #planetaryboundaries - and making this #transition as just and socially acceptable as possible.

Whether it be #climate budgeting #innovationpolicy #socialpolicy #nudging or #public #investments all should be pointing towards the same goal.

No state has achieved well-being that is ecologically sustainable. In the graph, we can see that many rich nations overstep the planetary boundaries despite achieving their social targets. Nations not achieving their social targets tend not to overstep the planetary boundaries. "Not a single country has achieved a high level of well-being in an ecologically sustainable way."

Hello there

The ORSI project is now on Mastodon! Come join us on a research journey towards #ecowelfarestate. Today we are publishing two new #policy-briefs, one on #innovationpolicy and another on #socialsecurity. (Finnish versions today, English translations to follow later this week.)

There shall be a proper introduction later on but until that you can have a look at what we do on our website ecowelfare.fi/en/themes/orsi_p

ORSI - Towards Eco-Welfare StateORSI project | ORSI - Towards Eco-Welfare StateORSI project In the coming decade, societies must adapt their activities to meet environmental limits. Finland must transform from a welfare state into an eco-welfare state. At the same time, we must ensure that our political goals and the practical measures we take to achieve them are as just and socially acceptable as possible. The […]
