Kick-off of the fifth edition of the Just Transition Platform Meeting

The fifth edition of the Just Transition Platform Meeting gets under way today, hosted by the European Commission. In an online format, the 3-day meeting will gather representatives from coal, peat and shale oil and carbon-intensive regions around the EU to discuss the impact of the green transition on the most affected communities and how they can benefit from the transition, in line with the objectives of the European Green Deal. Stakeholders will discuss available EU support and will exchange good practices on how to make best use of the different instruments that form the Just Transition Mechanism.
