The Asia-Pacific region is at a crossroads where better jobs can be developed in response to climate change. The region can accelerate its transformation through green jobs and just transitions at all industry and economic levels. Enabling a just transition, and planning for this transition, means that the opportunity offered by sustainable development and green job creation from de-carbonisation and adaptation also results in better jobs and decent jobs. It also means that those workers, firms, local regions and sectors affected by the need to de-carbonise and adapt to climate change receive the support, information, training and capacity they need to successfully transition. Green jobs and decent jobs need to be planned for, as they will not necessarily occur automatically or in the volume required unless just transition planning takes place. The ILO works in partnership with social partners and communities in the Asia-Pacific region to support and build capacity to develop just transition plans rich of green job.
