Zusammenfassung
  • Just transition refers to the socially just management of far-reaching transformation processes towards climate neutrality and sustainable development. Politically speaking, a just transition is now so much more than a social policy add-on; it is a strategic prerequisite for ambitious climate action. Without social safeguards, fair burden sharing and the involvement of those affected, there is a risk of declining public support, political deadlock and social polarisation. Although numerous just transition initiatives have emerged alongside the UN negotiations, there are still no globally coordinated criteria, coherent financing or systematic monitoring and coordination. With the establishment of the Just Transition Work Programme (JTWP) at COP27, an official process was created for the first time within the framework of UN climate negotiations. At COP30, the decision was taken to develop a Just Transition Mechanism (JTM).
