The green transition is upon us. But is everyone on board?
We all want to ensure that socially at-risk groups aren’t left behind in the transition – but what does that mean in reality? The path towards a just green transition in the Nordic Region can be tricky to navigate. That is why we have developed the “Nordic Toolbox for a Just Green Transition”, collecting three years of research. We invite you to attend the launch!
The comprehensive and interactive toolbox offers practical guidance for Nordic policymakers to navigate challenges, listen to those affected, and get inspired.
Attend the webinar to get a collected overview of how policymakers can act to ensure that the green transition is just and fair, and how civil society and socially at-risk groups should be involved to make it a reality.
