Just Resilience for Europe

This research paper aims to operationalize 'just resilience' within European climate adaptation by structuring existing knowledge and identifying potential indicators to measure progress.

• The paper identifies three core dimensions of justice—distributive, procedural, and recognition justice—as the basis for operationalizing just resilience in Europe, alongside additional perspectives such as intergenerational justice, intersectionality, and the safeguarding of nature's intrinsic values.
• Just resilience and the principle of 'leaving no one behind' are integrated into several European Union policies, specifically the EU Strategy on Climate Adaptation, the European Green Deal, and the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change.
• In the context of European policies, resilience is defined more broadly than adaptation, encompassing the goal of improving the ability of society and natural systems to persist, adapt, and transform when facing disruptions and crises.
