Just transition partnerships: Involvement, challenges and opportunities

Multistakeholder partnerships are essential to ensure that the green transition is not only environmentally sound and economically viable but also socially just. This policy brief investigates how relevant actors (national and regional authorities, the social partners and civil society organisations) are pursuing a green and just transition using a partnership approach in eight European regions facing particular challenges as a result of the phase-out of fossil fuels. Based on case studies, the policy brief examines how the actors involved perceive the just transition and identifies partnership practices that work and those that warrant improvement. It also describes how the regions see the future of partnership for a just transition in the medium and long terms and draws policy pointers from the evidence gathered. IR Share produced the case study on the Territorial Just Transition Plans in the French Hauts-de-France region.
