Just Transition Primer

The Good Work Institute exists to build and amplify the collective power of people to reject systems of oppression and extraction and create regenerative, just, and life-affirming communities

Good Work Institute

Let’s come together online to align understanding and action in support of effective, collective responses to the moment we are living in.

A global pandemic has altered the fabric of our daily lives with so many threads of uncertainty woven in. A strong uprising and awakening to the necessity of overcoming racial injustice has been initiated and needs to be sustained. These - and other - realities of our current context only heighten the importance of connecting to explore a shared vision of Just Transition. What will it take to build systems centered on care for each other and our shared home? This core GWI workshop helps us align our focus on this in the Mahicantuck (Hudson) Valley. Join us online, in community, to deepen your understanding of the Just Transition framework and principles. Through video, reflection, story sharing, and small group discussion, you will: <ul><li>See people from across the country describing aspects of Just Transition</li><li>Hear how other participants respond to the framework </li><li>Connect your own experience to extractive and regenerative economic paradigms</li><li>Gain a sense of the framework and principles, and where they come from</li><li>Discuss how you are drawn toward weaving one or more Just Transition principles into your Good Work</li></ul>FACILITATORSThis offering will be co-facilitated by a combination of these GWI Workers, whose fuller bios are available <a href="https://goodworkinstitute.org/about-the-good-work-institute/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
