Just Transition and Gender Equality

About the Event:

This meeting will welcome activists, NGO representatives, and other interested participants to explore the just transition and its relation to gender equality. We will focus on developing a network to discuss concrete policy recommendations around this topic, and identify citizen-based mechanisms that could empower women within the framework of green economy and just transition.

Context:

This is the second of five meetings as part of the Feminist Policies in Green Politics project, where we will delve into different policy areas to strengthen European feminist politics in energy, economics, climate policies, ecology and food & agriculture. Our goal is to identify the difficulties in these areas and compile empowering policy recommendations. Besides these meetings, the project also features a series of Green Feminist Talks – where we will hear more from inspiring activists and politicians across Europe.
