Recently, sustainable development and the environmental implications of economic development have attracted increasing attention in the economic debate. Particularly in relation to issues such as climate change, resource depletion, renewable energy and loss of biodiversity. There is growing recognition that economic development must address environmental damage in order to achieve long-term sustainability by reducing carbon footprints, promoting renewable energy and the responsible use of natural resources. In response, governments and institutions are increasingly adopting green economic practices. At the same time, there have been major demographic shifts in both advanced and developing countries.

Conventional economics often links the solution of the green transition to market-friendly policies, incentives and the elimination of interventionist distortions, and the demographic transition with austerity policies. However, in our view, these transitions require the design and coordination of public policies and the provision of public goods. A possible alternative approach to the conventional view is to align the necessary green and demographic transitions with demand-led growth and its policy implications.
 
This is particularly connected to the vision of the organizers and participants of the Demand-led Growth Workshop, currently in its sixth edition. This line of research seeks to make the Keynesian-Kaleckian principle of effective demand compatible with the classical surplus approach. Growth, in this view, is demand-led and restricted by economic policy and the balance of payments. Within this framework, macroeconomic policies are fundamental to growth, inflation and income distribution. The workshop organizers believe that building policy-relevant analyses, in addition to theoretical and applied models to better understand the current performance of advanced and developing countries, will contribute the soundness of this theoretical approach.
 
The aim of the 6th edition of the Workshop is to strengthen this promising trend by promoting a constructive and policy-relevant debate between these strands of critical thinking. Other heterodox approaches to economics are also welcomed and encouraged to promote new contributions on demand-led growth analysis, models and the multiplicity of relationships with monetary and financial elements. We encourage submission that broadly falls within the topics of the conference, and in particular on the relationship between ‘demand-led growth and the green and demographic transitions’. The Workshop aims to provide an opportunity for participants to discuss questions about the relationship between demand-led growth and sustainable development.
