This lecture will take a closer look at the ways in which climate policies can have an effect on different dimensions of inequality and their intersection, in the world of work and beyond. It will question the ability of existing EU ‘just transition’ instruments to address these social challenges, and highlight some of the measures that could be put in place to ensure that the green transition is an opportunity rather than a threat to social justice.
