Abstract
On Just Transitions
§ Just transition needs to contribute to the goals of decent work for all, social
inclusion and the eradication of poverty.” (ILO, 2015)
§ Aims:
§ To protect and equip workers whose jobs, livelihoods, and communities are at
risk from climate change or climate interventions as the world pursues more
sustainable pathways.
§ Address environmental discrimination based on race and the colonial legacy
(i.e. 1982 protests in Warren County, North Carolina, USA).
§ Helped solidify the connection between the three pillars of sustainable
development (society, the environment, and the economy) and provides
“connective tissue” between the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
