The Just Transition Platform (JTP) was officially launched in Nairobi on Wednesday, focusing on principles that emphasize guiding equitable climate action in five key sectors: the world of work, energy transition, agriculture and land use, trade, investment, and finance.
The event brought together regional and global climate experts, trade union leaders, researchers and policymakers to introduce a bold Africa-led framework for a fair and inclusive energy transition.
Held under the theme "A Dialogue on Advancing Just Transition in Africa: Climate Change and the World of Work," the forum served as both a high-level policy dialogue and a formal unveiling of the Principles for a Just and Equitable Transition, which have been in development since 2022 through multistakeholder consultations across the continent.
