The European Alliance for a Just Transition brings together around 50 European stakeholders working for a sustainable future, including social, climate and environmental civil society organisations, workers’ representatives, think tanks and progressive political parties, groups and foundations. The group shares a common objective for a fair and just green transition: to transform our economies and societies in ways that respect planetary boundaries and improve the well-being, living standards and working conditions of all people.

Amidst deepening and accelerating climate, environmental, and social crises, a fair and just green transition is essential to effectively tackle these multifaceted and interconnected global challenges. In this document, the Alliance presents its vision for a European Union that prioritises and promotes a fair and just transition throughout the 2024-2029 political cycle and beyond by:

  1. Ensuring the green transition leads to prosperity for all, with a strong focus on reducing socioeconomic inequalities.
  2. Advancing ambitious and forward-looking climate, environmental and social agendas in a coordinated, coherent and mutually reinforcing manner.
  3. Applying and promotes proactive decision making for a fair and just transition and  makes substantial investments to support it.
  4. Putting social, climate and environmental objectives at the heart of all its internal and external actions and investments to foster a truly sustainable society.
