Geography Professor Mia Bennett and co-authors from Erasmus University Rotterdam and Nord University recently published the first application of the just transition framework to the Arctic region.

Their model results suggest normative leadership on a just transition for the Arctic comprises international climate contributions in line with carbon emission records and a commitment to both fair and green jobs.
