Following the publication of the Think 2030 report and its 30 key recommendations for a more sustainable Europe ahead of 2030, the Institute for European Environmental Policy is carrying out an analysis of the manifestoes of European parties for the European parliamentary elections in May 2019.

The objective is to assess commitments on sustainability issues by comparing them with:

–              2014 manifestoes,

–              Think 2030 recommendations,

–              International commitments of the EU,

–              The 7th Environmental Action Plan and the European Environmental Agency environmental indicator report 2018 published in November.

This second analysis focuses on the Party of European Socialists (PES). We will publish in the next days the analysis of other manifestoes and a global analysis of all manifestoes at the end of March.
