We focus on advancing research and knowledge-sharing on energy transition experiences across Asia and Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries, and devising metrics. Leveraging its longstanding expertise in low-carbon development and knowledge of China's subnational climate actions, iGDP employs a rigorous analytical framework to assess the emissions reduction outcomes and just transition impacts of policy measures in BRI countries. iGDP also provides policy recommendations aligned with local needs and facilitates the exchange of low-carbon development experiences among Global South countries. Through the Just Transition Observatory (JTO), a joint initiative with IE University, iGDP builds just transition readiness frameworks and fosters international cooperation.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bot wow fadeInUp\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#research-resources\" class=\"g-btne1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"more\"><span

The paper reviews major existing JT frameworks (UNFCCC, EU, G20, China, Brazil) and analyzes the climate plans (NDCs) and transparency reports of 66 developing countries to see how JT is actually being defined and pursued on the ground. From this, it builds a new evaluation framework organized around three pillars \u2014 Goals (where countries want to end up, climate and development-wise), Pathways (how they&#039;re getting there, e.g. green jobs, investment, industries), and Readiness and Capacity (whether they have the social safety nets, finance, and institutions to pull it off) \u2014 then tested this framework against real country data to show it can help identify gaps and guide more tailored, country-led policy.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Academic Journal Article<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">JUN 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\">\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-11-at-6.58.54-PM-768x1003.jpg\" alt=\"Accelerating Green and Just Transition in the Global South\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li data-igdp-resource-type=\"op-ed\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinadaily.com.cn\/a\/202512\/09\/WS69376d19a310d6866eb2d8cb.html\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">From Concept to Action<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">China is offering other Global South countries a viable way to discover a just transition pathway of their own.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Op-ed<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">DEC 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\">\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/jennifer-chen-Pnc2Uxb7PG0-unsplash-768x511.jpg\" alt=\"From Concept to Action\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li data-igdp-resource-type=\"book\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/dual-carbon-strategy-and-just-transition-book-preface\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">&#8220;Dual Carbon&#8221; Strategy and Just Transition<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This book preface introduces the concept, policy basis, and importance of a &quot;just transition&quot; within the context of China&#039;s carbon neutrality and common prosperity goals.

The preface synthesizes domestic and international case studies to present a high-level analysis and provide recommendations for top-level design, pilot programs, and policy measures to ensure a fair and equitable energy transition.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Book<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">SEP 2023<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\">\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-15-at-10.03.10-PM-768x1122.jpg\" alt=\"&#8220;Dual Carbon&#8221; Strategy and Just Transition\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li data-igdp-resource-type=\"policy-brief\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/achieving-just-transition-in-chinas-coal-resource-based-regions\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">Achieving Just Transition in China&#8217;s Coal Resource-Based Regions<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This policy brief examines the challenges and pathways for achieving a just transition in China&#039;s coal-dependent regions as the country pursues its dual carbon goals. It focuses on four critical dimensions that require coordinated action: fostering high-quality economic development through industrial diversification, safeguarding livelihoods and employment security for coal workers and vulnerable communities, managing the phased reduction of coal production while maintaining energy supply stability, and strengthening environmental restoration in mining areas. The policy brief draws on domestic and international experiences to outline a dual-stage transition strategy\u2014first upgrading existing coal operations with smarter and cleaner technologies, then leveraging regional resources to cultivate renewable energy and complementary green industries. It also stresses the importance of robust social safety nets, worker retraining programs, and ecological rehabilitation measures such as repurposing abandoned mining lands for clean energy projects and carbon sinks. The policy brief argues that proactive planning, dynamic capacity adjustment mechanisms, and integrated multi-energy supply systems are essential to mitigate the socioeconomic and environmental impacts of the coal industry&#039;s decline, ensuring that the transition is both equitable and sustainable.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span
