Projects

‘Just Transition: From Concept to Practice’ - funded by the Scottish Council for global Affairs. This project aims to contribute to the emerging debate in this area, by distinguishing Just Transition from sustainability more clearly, and by applying those distinguishing factors to a concrete jurisdiction and sector. As the Scottish government has recently released a Just Transition plan for the transport sector (June 2023), this is timely research that aims to connect conceptual and policy discussions about Just Transition internationally, with relevant processes and discussions taking place at the national level.
