The core sessions of the conference on 16 and 17 April will facilitate exchange between stakeholders on the journey of a just transition towards a climate-neutral Europe. The event will spotlight the high-level discussion on the future of just transition, and it will provide good practice examples in harnessing the financing opportunities offered by the Just Transition Mechanism. Furthermore, specific sessions will address various topics such as effective just transition monitoring mechanisms, the role of just transition in poverty alleviation, empowering youth engagement, how to develop and implement energy communities, skills development for a green future and available on-the-ground support for regions.
On the third day of the conference, there will be a session organised by the Committee of Regions: Multi-Level Dialogue on Just Transition. To register for this event, a link will be available soon on the programme in Swapcard.
Registrations for in-person attendance will close on 25 March. Due to the limited capacity of the venue, final confirmation of in-person participation is subject to approval. Registration for online participation will remain open.
For any questions on the event, or for any issues with the registration form, please send an e-mail to events@justtransitionplatform.eu.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Conference!
