Just Transition for All?

About the event

This three-day seminar will serve as a place to discuss opportunities and limits of just transition and explore its transformative potential.

 During the seminar, we will:

• provide a first approach to the concept of just transition,
• discuss the role of trade unions and workers,
• discuss the transfer from extractive to regenerative economy,
• explore just transition to a European and global level in solidarity,
• Link it to recovery plans and European Green deal,
• Explore opportunities for decent jobs,
• discuss specific conditions of just transition at European semi periphery

Also, we will dive much deeper into just transition in the transport sector, where we will learn and discuss under which conditions sustainable mobility can become an example of just transition policies.

We see this seminar as one milestone in a systemic approach to concepts and practices of just transition in this part of Europe, and an important milestone in establishing epistemic communities in this field.
