In a world transitioning toward green economies, ensuring that this shift is equitable, inclusive, and truly a “just transition” is paramount. But how can nations finance this monumental effort?
This question is at the heart of the Financing Just Transitions training series, a six-week online program jointly developed by PAGE and DCO, with UNITAR serving as the leading PAGE agency.
Building on the success of the 1st edition of the training series – which was held earlier this year for countries from Eastern time zones – this 2nd edition of the in-depth training series (2nd September, 2025 to 16th October, 2025) will bring together approximately 80 mid- to senior-level representatives from seven countries across Africa, Europe and Latin America and the Caribbean : Bolivia, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Mexico, Morocco, and Turkey. Participating countries were selected through an open application process, ensuring a diverse range of public and private sector professionals are attending the training.
Morocco is participating as a PAGE country in this training while PAGE countries like South Africa and Brazil, together with PAGE agencies, UNEP and ILO, will deliver presentations in selected modules, sharing practical tools, case studies, and budgeting and financing approaches. This initiative underscores PAGE’s global reach, affirming its role as a global authority in green economy transitions and a vital platform for fostering capacity development and South-South knowledge exchange.
The 2nd edition cohort brings together officials from across government, the private sector, civil society and the UN system. This includes key government ministries, including economy, finance, labour, industry, agriculture and environment, as well as representatives from central planning and budget offices, national development and commercial banks, business and employer federations and NGOs. This intentional mix of public and private sector stakeholders is crucial to help break down traditional institutional silos and foster a shared understanding of the financing challenges and opportunities ahead.
