High-Level Opening: Just Transition Pathway – This Way to Social Justice

Keeping the social dimension of climate change at the forefront of discussions was the focus of events being organized in the Just Transition Pavilion at the Conference of Parties 28th session (COP28) in Dubai, UAE. For the second year in a row, the ILO and the European Commission are hosting the Just Transition Pavilion, a convening space for events, meetings and knowledge sharing around just transition and climate action in cooperation with the International Organisation of Employers (IOE), International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), and United Nations Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

Top 5 events on youth at COP28

In the face of the global climate crisis, integrating youth into the UN climate processes is paramount for several reasons. Youth continue to be disproportionately hit by a climate crisis they have not created. Still, young people are not only victims of climate change but also important agents of change. In essence, empowering youth within these crucial discussions is an investment in a more inclusive, informed, and effective global response to the climate crisis.
