Just Transition and Equitable Climate Action Resource Center
Highlighting initiatives by governments, communities and companies that provide lessons for how workers and communities can benefit from the transition to a zero-carbon economy.
Addressing climate change and achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement requires transitioning to a net-zero economy. While this is an essential task that can provide significant economic and social benefits, it can also pose significant challenges for countries and communities that are still dependent on fossil fuels and other emissions-intensive sectors.
Achieving a just transition requires tackling the challenges faced by communities and workers as they shift toward sustainable livelihoods, while also ensuring that the benefits of the zero-carbon and resilient economy are shared fairly.
