Labor Policies for Inclusive, Climate-Resilient Workforce in Europe and Central Asia

November 18, 2024
World Bank Group Pavilion (area E, pavilion B1) at COP29 and Online

Countries across the globe are embarking into a green transition to mitigate the risk of climate change. Countries are putting together policies, investments, subsidies, and regulations to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050 and to decouple the economy from natural resource consumption.

While this is absolutely urgent and necessary, it is easy to lose sight of how the population might be adversely impacted by such transitions. Policy design and program implementation require that we ensure no one is left behind, both in the process of designing and implementing the transition, and in taking advantage of the opportunities that arise as a result of it.

欧美日b大片 is supporting countries across the World, and especially in Europe and Central Asia to implement a Green Transition in the most inclusive and equitable way. Panelists will discuss the impact of this green transition on the labor force in Central Asia and Europe, and how the region has designed social and labor policies for a resilient workforce. Government officials from Poland, Slovenia and Türkiye will discuss innovative ways to support workers’ transition to green economies and create job opportunities for women and youth in the green transition.

This event is organized jointly by the Social Protection Global Practice and the Social Sustainability and Inclusion Global Practice.
