IN DOJRAN WE TALKED ABOUT JUST TRANSITION.

At the first trade union educational activity dedicated to the topic of the Just Transition processes together with the members of the Trade Union of Workers from the Administration, Judicial Bodies and Citizens' Associations of the Republic of Macedonia (UPOZ); , in the city of Dojran we talked about questions like: "What is just transition and what influence as a framework it will have on our country and especially the workers’ that come from the most affected sectors like energy-sector, construction, agro-sector, transport and tourism?" and "What is the Paris Agreement on Climate Change?" among others, all this with the sole purpose to raise awareness among workers’ and the general public about the significance of this process and its impact on the environment and the workers' rights.

The trade unions as the most important representatives of the workers’ and protectors of workers' rights will have a huge role in this process, taking care of the realization, protection and advancement of workers' rights.

The main conclusion is that "There is no just transition without protected workers' rights and without the participation of the trade unions".

Next week the trade union education about Just Transition continues, 9 more cities will be visited where workers’ and citizens will have the opportunity to learn more about the Just Transition as very important process and what it means for the future of jobs.
