How to Achieve a 'Just Transition' from Theory to Practice

  • 13:00 - 14:00, 20 September

“A just transition maximises the social and economic opportunities of climate action,while carefully managing its challenges. Rooted in sustainable development, a justtransition leverages environmental strategies to advance decent work, promote socialinclusion and eradicate poverty. It depends on a fair process built on social dialogue(between representatives of companies and of workers and sometimes ofGovernments); stakeholder engagement among all impacted groups, including affectedcommunities; and a universal respect for fundamental labour rights and other humanrights. It is a holistic approach, touching every economic sector (not only energy), everyregion and every country.”Source: United Nations Global Compact Business Brief “Just TransitionJoin BMW Group workshop to gain an understanding of the opportunities and challenges through an automotive industry lens so you can make a difference in your organisation and beyond!”
