On 1 December 2025, the EUI will host a hybrid conference on evidence-based climate policy, marking the conclusion of two major European research projects: LIFE COASE and CAPABLE. Following the event, the 11th Annual Conference on the Economic Assessment of European Climate Policies will take place from 2-3 December, allowing interested participants to join 3 days of dense discussion on the current state of climate policy.

LIFE COASE, co-funded by the EU LIFE Programme, has established an observatory dedicated to the assessment of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), providing a reference point for research and policy development in this area. CAPABLE, funded under the Horizon Europe programme, has examined the economic, social, and political dimensions of climate policy design, with a focus on improving policy acceptability and feasibility.

The conference will present key findings from both projects, covering topics such as the effectiveness and global impact of the EU ETS, the distributional effects of carbon pricing, and the conditions under which climate policies can gain broader societal acceptance. The event will bring together researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders to reflect on the outcomes of three years of work and to foster dialogue on future directions for climate policy in Europe.

Participation is free of charge and open to the public. Registrations will open soon!
