The transition to green energy offers new opportunities for rural regions in Europe in particular: our calculations show an increase in employment and added value by 2050, especially for rural regions that are currently lagging behind economically.
Thomas Schwab, economic expert at the Bertelmann Stiftung, explains how the energy transition in Europe will affect the various regions and what these results mean for European cohesion policy.

At the World Health Summit 2023 in Berlin, the Bertelsmann Stiftung discussed measures against misinformation and disinformation with representatives of the World Health Organization, the U.S. National Academy of Medicine, the tech industry and many others. Participants agreed to forge a strong alliance to lay the foundation for a global certification system against health-related misinformation and disinformation.
