OPERATIONALISING A JUST TRANSITION IN AFRICA (OJTA)

At a multilateral level, the positioning of just transition policies through bodies of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) draws emphasis on inter alia social dialogue, capacity building and tailored approaches. Consequently, the OJTA project acknowledges that multiple efforts are underpinning just energy transition in Africa both at research, policy and practice levels. The initial phase of the project produced a landscape analysis which provided an initial understanding of the just transition agenda in Africa focusing on research, policy and capacity building. The landscape analysis enabled the OJTA team to identify specific niches for impactful research, policy and capacity-building interventions.
On 28th June 2024, energy experts came together and gave in depth knowledge and insights on Just Transition in Africa in the above presentation.
