The event will start with the screening of a 20-minute documentary ‘Blazing the just transition trail’, followed by a one-hour panel discussion on the future of the just transition in the face of political, environmental, and economic challenges.
‘Blazing the just transition trail’ takes you on a journey through Poland and Romania, featuring inspiring stories that showcase the progress of the just transition in the EU. Our video reveals the power of joint action and the importance of community-based solutions. With 96 regions across the EU set to benefit from the Just Transition Fund, these insights from Poland and Romania are more important than ever for shaping the future of the just transition.
What lessons can be drawn from the current Just Transition Fund and how should it continue? How should the next Multiannual Financial Framework support just transition regions in Ukraine and the Western Balkans? What key priorities should guide the next funding period? These are just some of the questions we’ll tackle in our panel discussion with the help of experts working on the just transition at regional, national and EU levels under the moderation of Miłosława Stępień, just transition coordinator at CEE Bankwatch Network.
