Incorporating just transition strategies in developing country Nationally Determined Contributions

This guide explores how developing and least developed countries can effectively integrate "just transition" principles into their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). While the Paris Agreement mandates an acknowledgment of the workforce transition and the creation of decent work, many developing nations struggle to implement these concepts due to a lack of consensus, limited practical guidance, and the misconception that such strategies are only relevant for developed economies. This resource aims to bridge that gap by providing actionable tools for governments to manage the social challenges of climate policy while advancing equitable economic growth.
