BÚSSOLA DE TRANSIÇÃO JUSTA

The 'Just Transition Compass' provides a strategic framework to move just transition concepts from high-level dialogue to scalable implementation. It identifies four core elements of a just transition: addressing existing injustices, aligning structural changes with Paris Agreement goals, ensuring meaningful stakeholder participation, and fair distribution of costs and benefits. The document argues that national transitions cannot succeed without international cooperation and proposes the creation of a permanent Just Transition coordination body within the UNFCCC to reduce fragmentation, align financial flows, and share best practices across sectors beyond energy, such as agriculture and transport.

• There is international and intersectoral consensus on four essential elements of a Just Transition: using the transition to address root causes of social and economic inequalities ("justiça restaurativa"), ensuring structural changes align with Paris Agreement temperature goals and climate resilience ("justiça climática"), centering meaningful stakeholder participation in decision-making ("justiça procedimental"), and ensuring the fair distribution of costs, risks, and benefits ("justiça distributiva").
• International actors can overcome national implementation barriers by providing targeted, accessible climate finance, supporting interministerial coordination through technical and institutional aid, creating a centralized repository for tools and training, sharing detailed case studies and best practices (such as the EU Just Transition Mechanism), and supporting long-term national capacity for data collection and impact analysis.
• While just transition efforts have primarily focused on the energy sector and fossil fuel phase-out, the framework emphasizes the need to apply these principles to more complex sectors like agriculture and transport, where livelihoods are often informal and precarious.
• The document argues that existing UNFCCC mechanisms are too fragmented to deliver just transitions and proposes the establishment of a permanent Just Transition Coordination Unit/Mechanism/Body to integrate activities, reduce duplication, and align donor criteria with local priorities.
• To improve the link between national and international implementation, the framework suggests that Parties integrate just transition goals and policies into their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), and develop dedicated monitoring indicators.
• The Just Transition Work Programme (JTWP) is identified as a unique multilateral forum to promote global cooperation by consolidating knowledge on structural barriers, coordinating strategies to ensure corporate accountability for multinational companies, and testing new international cooperation models.
