ActionAid International has stated that less than three per cent of global climate finance supports “just transition” initiatives.
A new report, “Climate Finance for Just Transition: How the Finance Flows”, found that only 2.8 per cent of climate funding is channelled to just transition projects.
Just transition frameworks involve empowering communities to take part in local planning, providing training for green jobs, and supporting incomes during the shift away from polluting industries.
