About Us
The Just Transition Observatory is a collaborative partnership between IE University, IE Foundation, and the Institute for Global Decarbonization Progress. Its primary goal is to deepen understanding of the progress and challenges in achieving a Just Transition.
The initiative promotes multi-stakeholder dialogue across key sectors and produces analysis to inform policy discussions. It is dedicated to strengthening capacity-building to assess and advance this critical agenda.
The transition to a decarbonized global economy is not just about technology and policies—it’s about people and communities, and ensuring that no one is left behind by fostering inclusive solutions to climate action.
Vision
To serve as a global hub for knowledge, policy development, and capacity building that drives inclusive solutions for a just transition in climate action. Our vision is rooted in the belief that the transition to a low-carbon future must be fair, participatory, and empowering, ensuring that all voices shape and benefit from the change
