Advancing a Just Transition in Southeast Asia

As the world accelerates its efforts to address the urgent impacts of climate change, the concept of a Just Transition has become increasingly vital to ensure a shift to not just a low-carbon economy, but a resilient and equitable one. This is especially critical in Asia, home to both rapidly developing economies and deep social and labour inequities. Businesses in Asia will play a pivotal role to embed social safeguards into their transition strategies and risk management framework, enhance access to livelihood opportunities and advance social inclusion , trough processes that engage transparently with affected stakeholders – in building resilient economies.
