\n\t\t\t[Working Paper] Localizing Just Transition: Perspectives from Southeast Asia\t<\/h3>\n\t

In Southeast Asia, where economies, governance systems, and social conditions are highly diverse, translating just transition principles into policy requires contextual sensitivity. This article examines how the just transition is understood and pursued across the region using the JUST framework, which integrates multiple dimensions of justice alongside spatial and temporal considerations. Drawing on regional policy developments, legal frameworks, and selected country examples, the article highlights persistent gaps in procedural inclusion, uneven distribution of transition costs and benefits, and limited recognition of indigenous and vulnerable communities.<\/p>\n
