The Sustainable Alliance and guests discuss how the Just Transition interrelates with current world events

Sharing their views at the inaugural Sustainable Alliance roundtable were: Alice Evans, co-head of responsible investment at BMO GAM; David Osfield, fund manager at EdenTree; and Simonetta Spavieri responsible investment senior engagement analyst at Royal London Asset Management. Also joining  remotely were Ben Palmer, head of responsible investment at Brooks Macdonald and Rory Sullivan, co-founder of Chronos Sustainability.

Born out of trade union movements, the Just Transition is a movement advocating global decarbonisation in a socially just and equitable manner. It's an initiative that has been around since the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change but it came to prominence at COP24 when the Just Transition Silesia Declaration was signed by 53 governments, with further commitments made at COP26.
