We are witnessing a dramatic shift in climate policymaking, away from the conventional focus on carbon pricing and toward broader policies such as green industrial policy, just transition, and compensatory policies. The workshop will gather academics in economics, political science, and related fields to share their research on this new are of climate policies.

Don't miss this opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions and broaden your perspective on climate policy alternatives!

Workshop

Just like our last FREECE Workshop back on April 19 (The Political Economy of Environmental Policy), the workshop will consists of two elements: (1) sessions with paper presentations, and (2) keynote speeches from invited experts in the field.

Call for papers

We would like to invite paper and extended abstract submissions by October 14, 2024. 

• Green Industrial Policy: Public investments and support for green technology sectors.
• Just transition: Policies to ensure fairness for workers and communities in the green transition.
• Compensatory Policies: Targeted support, such as EV and solar panel rebates to households and compensatory mechanisms for affected sectors.

The workshop is organised as part of the FREECE initiative - the Forum for Research on Eastern Europe: Climate and Environment supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida).
