Climate Actions for Just Transition in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is recognized worldwide as one of the countries most vulnerable in relation to global warming and climate change. This is due to its unique geographical location, dominance of floodplains, low elevation from sea, high population density and overwhelming dependence on nature.
The industry and workers of Bangladesh at coastal areas and river sides in agriculture and fishery sector has already identified as most vulnerable group in relation to impacts of global warming in Bangladesh.
Combating global warming is a work place issue as workplaces burn energy consumes resources and generates waste.
Globally, the industry alone is responsible for over half of carbon dioxide emissions increasing the greenhouse effects every year. Making workplaces sustainable is the key to make jobs and productivity sustainable.

Knowledge and learning are vital to understanding and shaping change. They are also instrumental for building on successful practices and avoiding mistakes of the past. The initiative will pioneer knowledge on the nexus of climate change and the world of work, develop tools and resources to help policy makers design effective policy instruments, and offer platforms to share findings and understand what works.
The challenges of connecting decent work and climate change are complex. They cannot be solved with linear problem-solving processes. Stakeholders cannot succeed alone. Delivering a just transition requires a vision-oriented network of innovators ready to develop responses that break with business-as-usual. That’s where the Just Transition Innovation Facility comes in. It will rely on multidisciplinary approaches and leverage a diversity of perspectives from a spectrum of stakeholders.
