The concept of a Just Transition to a sustainable economy is a tool to:
- Understand who will be affected by action to address climate change.
- Distribute the benefits in a fair manner.
- Social inclusion & eradication of poverty goals
- “A just transition for all towards an environmentally sustainable economy needs to be well managed and contribute to the goals of decent work for all, social inclusion and the eradication of poverty.
- The greening of economies will enhance our ability to manage natural resources sustainably, increase energy efficiency and reduce waste, while addressing inequalities and enhancing resilience.”
