The WESO report studies, amongst other challenges of the just transition, the worldwide employment effects of achieving the 2°C long-term goal of the 2015 Paris Agreement. Importantly, it uses economic scenario modelling through Input-Output Analysis to enhance our understanding of what sectors are likely to experience net employment gains and what sectors will see employment levels decreasing.

Speakers:

• Kirsten S. Wiebe , Researcher at the Industrial Ecology Programme (NTNU) and expert in input-output modelling.

• Guillermo Montt , Senior Economist at the ILO and one of the major contributors to the WESO report.
