Engaging for a Just Transition in emerging markets

Emerging markets lie at the forefront of the battle against climate change, since they account for over 95% of the projected increase in global emissions. Decarbonizing their economies is essential, but it must be done in a sustainable and equitable manner.

That’s why the ‘Just Transition’ is vital in ensuring that communities who are dependent, for example, on fossil fuels do not adversely suffer in the move to a low-carbon global economy. In our latest white paper, Robeco’s engagement specialists outline how their ‘Just Transition in Emerging Markets’ engagement program launched in 2023 can help.

Initial focus on energy and mining

The engagement program will initially focus on the energy (oil, gas and utilities) and mining sectors, due to the stronger urgency for them to decarbonize, and their socio-economic relevance for emerging markets. The team will start by engaging with six leading companies over three years to mitigate the impacts that these transitions will have on their key stakeholders, workers, communities and customers.

Going forward, the engagement will be expanded to other key sectors such as agriculture, construction, transportation and finance.
