The Financing a Just Transition programme started in 2018, designed to identify the role that finance can play in connecting action on climate change with inclusive development pathways. This builds on the commitment within the Paris Agreement on climate change to support a just transition for workers and communities. Our first major report was ‘Climate change and the just transition – A guide for investor action’<\/a>, published in 2018 with Harvard’s Initiative for Responsible Investment, the International Trade Union Confederation and the Principles for Responsible Investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launch of the Just Transition Finance Lab – February 2024<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The team has since built up considerable experience and expertise in the practical financial implications of the just transition in different sectors and regions, which culminated in the launch of the Just Transition Finance Lab<\/path><\/svg><\/a> in February 2024. The Lab is hosted by the Grantham Research Institute and is designed to be a world-leading centre for experimentation and excellence in the financial solutions needed for a just transition to a net zero and nature-positive economy. You can read all about its objectives, projects and people on the separate Lab website: https:\/\/justtransitionfinance.org\/<\/path><\/svg><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as showcasing the team’s work on the just transition from February 2024 onwards, the Lab website contains our back catalogue of relevant publications and commentaries dating from 2018. This earlier work on the just transition also continues to be available in the Publications<\/a> and News<\/a> sections of the Grantham Research Institute website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
