Research to inform a monitoring and evaluation framework for a just transition in Scotland

Descriptions

Scottish Government’s approach to climate change is underpinned by a commitment to deliver a just transition. The Climate Change Act 2019 puts this commitment in legislation, and places a number of statutory obligations on Scottish Government when preparing Climate Change Plans, and when monitoring the progress of these plans. ClimateXChange wishes to commission research to inform development of an overarching approach to monitoring and evaluation of a just transition in Scotland that can be nested with the wider framework for monitoring climate change. The research will inform the development of the statutory annual monitoring framework for the Climate Change Plan (CCP) , the development of the next Climate Change Plan, sector-level and regional Just Transition Plans, the links to the Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP) ,and wider just transition policy work.
