- W4306247029 abstract "Abstract Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the world’s most climate-vulnerable regions, with impacts on food security already being felt while the continent also battles unprecedented levels of unemployment and economic recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. The inherent connectivity between the twin challenges of climate and economic vulnerability is becoming more and more apparent, and the concept of the Just Transition is gaining traction across development spheres to address these multidimensional problems, albeit with many different interpretations. These varied interpretations of the Just Transition movement can lead to vastly different priorities, policy routes and outcomes—a concerning risk especially where the governing definitions and principles are not produced, advanced, or owned by African stakeholders. This commentary aims to bring more clarity and specificity to the discourse on Just Transitions in Africa. We first provide a short history of the Just Transition movement and its evolution, and then demonstrate how the term has become an umbrella for more specific interest groups and communities, as seen through the expansion of the Just Urban, Rural, Circular Economy, and Energy Transition movements. Through a literature review, drawing from pivotal international examples, and based on the authors’ perspectives, we offer insights into the meaningfulness of these distinctions and posit clearer working definitions. We then explore the direct relevance of these movements to the African context through case studies of successful local and regional initiatives and programs. This commentary aims to provide readers with a simple, succinct, and structured explanation of the Just Transitions movements, and practical insights for their further advancement in Africa. Our exploration does not aim to be definitive or exhaustive, but rather demonstrates that truly just transitions on the continent will require attention first and foremost to consensus-building at the local and national level. This will require shareable research and data about programs and initiatives for each other to learn from, and significantly more climate financing dedicated to African-led initiatives." @default.
