READJUST
Just transition to a green and digital future for all
- Description
Policies driving the green and digital transitions, or twin transitions, are intended to level the playing field to achieve the European Growth Model and attain the EU Green Deal and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. However, these policies have unintended and unforeseen effects in creating new inequalities and/or aggravating existing ones. Social groups already at risk in the EU's most vulnerable regions are primarily affected. Public authorities and policy-makers at local, national and European levels therefore need an evidence-based understanding of these inequalities and concrete ways to prevent and mitigate them.
The research project READJUST is investigating, analysing, and proposing concrete solutions to the inequalities arising from the EU's green and digital transitions. READJUST is committed to ensuring equitable access to the benefits of these transitions and aims to provide policymakers with the necessary tools and insights to mitigate potential negative impacts. The project places particular emphasis on the mobility and agri-food sectors due to their environmental impact, relevance to everyday life, and potential for equitable change.
